The lessons in this program have been specially chosen for the earnest Bible student. The lessons provide not only a basic understanding of the Bible and it's message, but also prepare the student for a lifetime of rewarding and insightful independent Bible study. In addition, the lessons address a number of key ministry issues.  Completion of the lessons will result in a well rounded basis to build and lead a successful lay ministry.
