by Nicette As a teenager I wanted to give my life for something. I wanted to be passionate about something and change the world. But I didn’t see God as someone to live and die for because I didn’t understand who He actually is. The Salvation message I heard as a kid was that Jesus died to save me from my sins and from …
story from Amy, who co-led the BSN/BELT team to Nigeria, Zanzibar and Tanzania. We sat in blue plastic lawn chairs in the front of the concrete church building in Zanzibar, listening intently. Prisca, one of the participants in our Biblical Education and Leadership Training (BELT) seminar, was sharing a testimony from her weekend outreach, and she had everyone’s rapt attention. Prisca and …
by Dawn, School of the Bible leader Just a quick hello from Shillong! Our 1 1/2 day trip took 3 days, but we have finally arrived – safely, in pretty good health, and with all of our bags! Very heavy fog in Delhi resulted in many cancelled and delayed flights. So the resulting backlog made it difficult for us to …
by Anna, School of the Bible Staff One of our local School of the Bible projects is to lead Bible studies for university students. Leading the Bible study helps our Bible school students have an outlet for all that they're learning and gives them practical experience that will help them when they graduate.

We prayed, asking God to bless the city of Madison and to help us meet the right people—people who needed to know that God loves them. While we prayed, we walked around the block. We wanted to find someone to talk to. The first …
“After studying Greek grammar and vocabulary for the last four months, we translated a verse from Greek into English in class today. Soon, we’ll translate the book of 1 John. I’m so excited to gain the tools to translate the Bible for myself!” Leah, School of the Bible student
by Hobbes, SOTB Staff I plopped down in the chair next to a young man. It was Tuesday night and, as usual, I had taken some of the School of the Bible students to talk with juvenile offenders here in Madison. This young man smiled a lot, which was a little unusual. I asked him why he was smiling. “It’s …
by Leah, SOTB student “Which of these domains do you see yourself working in?” our teacher asked, writing a list on the white board: government, education, economics, science and technology, arts and entertainment, media and communication, and family. I knew this question would come up, and I dreaded answering it. What if I’m wrong? What if it’s impossible? I hoped …
by Abe, School of the Bible student Leviticus and the laws were very meaningless to me before. I thought of them as a good advice or guidance that we are not obligated to follow but could be beneficial when practiced. They were always the boring parting of the Bible, which I tended to skim. Or I would just jump to …
