🎉 We are already 63% of the way there! 🙌📖

We shared that we were praying for 20 people to partner with our School of Biblical Studies by giving $30 a month for nine months—and God is already providing!

Through two generous gifts of $2,400 and $1,000, we have already received $3,400! ❤️ That covers 12 full spots, with another $160 already going toward spot #13.

That means we only have $2,000 left to reach our $5,400 goal! 🙏 We are so encouraged and grateful.

And this journey won’t stop when the school begins. Throughout the nine months, our students will also participate in our giving times, praying over the needs of the school and asking God what He is leading them to give. ❤️

Every gift helps make it possible for students to spend nine months deeply studying the entire Bible without finances being what keeps them from coming.

📅 SBS begins September 14!

Would you pray about helping us fill the remaining spots? Even if you can’t commit to a full $30-a-month spot, every gift moves us closer. 🙌

💙 To give, go to:

Thank you to those who have already given. We can’t wait to keep updating this chart and watching what God does! ❤️📖

📖 What if finances didn’t have to be the reason someone couldn’t spend nine months studying the Bible?

That’s one of the things that makes our School of Biblical Studies (SBS) so unique. ❤️

We run this school by faith. Instead of allowing tuition costs to keep someone from studying God’s Word, we trust God together for what is needed. Twice a month, we bring the financial needs of the school before God, pray together, and take an offering. Our students are part of this journey too—they pray and ask God what He is leading them to give. No one is pressured. We simply pray, give as God leads, and trust Him to provide. 🙏❤️

If you have a desire to study the Bible, finances don’t have to stop you.

And if you’ve done an SBS before, you know how impactful these nine months can be. 📖 Nine months digging deeply into the entire Bible, learning how to study God’s Word for yourself, and allowing His truth to transform the way you see God, yourself, and the world.

As we prepare for our next school, we want to invite others to be part of this journey with us. 🙌

🎯 We are praying for 20 people who would like to partner with the school by giving $30 a month for the next nine months. Together, that would provide an additional $600 each month toward the needs of the school.

🔢 20 people. $30 a month. 9 months.

This is about being part of making nine months of intensive Bible study accessible to people who might otherwise never have the opportunity. 🙏❤️

We’ll update our chart weekly before September 14 so you can follow along with us and celebrate what God provides! 🙌

📅 School begins September 14!

If you would like to partner with us, you can give monthly toward the School of Biblical Studies here:

Thank you for praying with us and being part of what God is doing through SBS! 🙏📖

“I can do all things through Christ…”

This verse isn’t about chasing dreams.

It’s about staying faithful—no matter what comes.

Paul wrote Philippians 4:13 while in prison in Rome, chained, uncertain of his future.
And yet, he writes:

“I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.” (Phil. 4:11)

The Philippians were struggling too—facing pressure, persecution, and poverty. But Paul’s message isn’t “Be stronger.”
It’s “You already have the strength—Christ in you.”

⸻

What does this really mean?

In SBS, we study verses like this through the inductive method:

1. Observation
What does the text say?
— Paul is imprisoned. He’s thanking the Philippians for their support. He says he has “learned” contentment.

2. Interpretation
What did it mean to the original readers?
— The Philippians were suffering too. Paul is encouraging them that true strength is not found in circumstances, but in Christ, who empowers us to stay faithful whether we have much or little.

3. Application
What does it mean for us today?
— We live in a culture that says, “You can do anything!” But Scripture says, “You can endure anything—through Christ.”
It’s not about self-empowerment. It’s about Spirit-empowered endurance.
Whether you’re facing burnout, disappointment, or loss—you can be content, you can be steady, you can have peace… in Christ.

⸻

This is what SBS is about.
Knowing the God of the Bible through the full context, culture, and message of each book.
With the inductive method, the guidance of our staff, and the leading of the Holy Spirit, the Word becomes alive.

⸻

📖 Nine months. One incredible journey through the entire Bible.

The School of Biblical Studies (SBS) is more than just reading the Bible—it’s learning how to study it for yourself, understand it in its historical context, and discover the truth of God’s Word book by book. ❤️

For nine months, we’ll journey together from Genesis to Revelation using the Inductive Bible Study Method—observing what the text says, understanding what it meant to the original readers, and discovering how it applies to our lives today.

📅 The next SBS begins September 14!

There is still time to join us. We are waiting for you! 🙌📖

🇲🇽 Nueve meses. Un viaje increíble a través de toda la Biblia.

La Escuela de Estudios Bíblicos (EEB) es mucho más que leer la Biblia. Aprenderás a estudiarla por ti mismo, comprenderla dentro de su contexto histórico y descubrir la verdad de la Palabra de Dios, libro por libro. ❤️

Durante nueve meses recorreremos juntos la Biblia desde Génesis hasta Apocalipsis utilizando el Método Inductivo de Estudio Bíblico: observando lo que dice el texto, entendiendo lo que significaba para los lectores originales y descubriendo cómo aplicarlo a nuestra vida hoy.

📅 ¡La próxima EEB comienza el 14 de septiembre!

Todavía estás a tiempo. ¡Te estamos esperando! 🙌📖
