Expectations

A nine-month course focused on studying all 66 books of the Bible through the Inductive Method. Attempting to set aside preconceived ideas the inductive method begins with observation (what does the text say), then interprets the text through the eyes of the original reader, and finally applying timeless truths to your own life. Through this approach we hope to let the living Word of God speak for itself. The course will equip you to study God’s Word for yourself, while challenging you to take what you have learned and give it to others. The SBS is an overview of the Bible which enables you to understand the “big picture”, laying a solid foundation for your life and ministry. We trust that the SBS here in Muizenberg will be a place where the Spirit of God comes and transforms your life, brings healing, renewal, greater understanding of the character & nature of God, His Word, and His purposes. It is our hope that through your time with the SBS, there will stir up within you a new vision and passion for reaching the nations, with the true Gospel of God.
