Discovery Bible Study in Your Church
Every oak tree was once a little nut that held its ground. Acorns do not become towering oaks overnight. Neither does the new community which Jesus came to build. Yet with patience it becomes majestic. Learn how.
Find Your Person of Peace
Jesus, the Disciple Maker, tells His disciples to look for “a person of peace.” This is not looking for a needle in a haystack, for God is already preparing individuals to receive the Good News. Learn how you can find and cultivate a person of peace.
Discovery Bible Study in Your Home
Parents pass faith in Jesus to their children. While the Church weakens in the West, elsewhere Discovery Bible Study (DBS) is helping millions to follow Christ. Could DBS ignite living faith in your home? Consider how DBS differs from typical family devotions.
Sheep Among Wolves
Is Discovery Bible Study successful due to less opposition where it is used? Consider this — 1. Today which nation’s government is most adamantly committed to wiping Christians off the face of the earth? 2. Which nation has the fastest growing number of new disciples? IT IS THE SAME NATION!
What about Follow-up?
When we employ the twin methods of Disciple Making Movements and Discovery Bible Study (DMM-DBS) as our evangelism strategy, an additional follow-up plan is not necessary. DMM-DBS accomplishes both quantitative growth (making new disciples) and qualitative growth (teaching them to obey what Jesus commanded). The methods of Jesus the Disciple Maker are brilliant!
Like Wildfire
How do Discovery Bible Study groups spread like wildfire and become Disciple Making Movements in which thousands and even millions follow Jesus? In the West, Bible study groups don’t proliferate like that. So, what are DBS groups doing differently?
Discovery Bible Study Format
Let’s take a guided a tour through an entire Discovery Bible Study session. When a group internalizes God’s Word, shares His Word, and seeks to obey it, marvelous things occur. They gradually discover who Jesus is and can’t resist following Him.
Discovery Bible Texts
In a Discovery Bible Study (DBS), people who know nothing about the Bible become disciples of Jesus Christ. How is this possible? Because the texts they explore together set them on the bedrock of history. As they begin to identify with the Jews of Bible times, the light of faith gradually dawns. And when Jesus rises, their hearts become His!
Reading the Bible with Know-Nothings
Since 1994, millions of people have come to faith in a Discovery Bible Study, even though none of them were Christians when they began the study. We church goers used to being instructed by a Bible expert, wonder: How could a group of know-nothings reading the Bible ever become disciples of Jesus Christ?
Who Is the Leader?
What if a witnessing method did not require you to be a Bible expert with all the answers? In fact, you wouldn’t be the leader at all. Learn the counter-intuitive method of Discovery Bible Study.
Present Day Disciples
Jesus Christ is still making disciples. In 1990, of the 100 million Bhojpuri in northern India, only 10,000 confessed faith in Christ. Today they number in the millions! Since then, the disciple-making principles that the Lord taught the Bhojpuris have spread to other parts of the globe. Why not your neighborhood too?
Am I Disciple Material?
Ever wonder: “Do I have what it takes to be a disciple of Jesus?” All His disciples are misfits. But through the Father’s forgiveness, the Savior’s blood, and the Spirit’s indwelling presence, God reshapes us to fit into His plan to make disciples of all nations.
