About

WHAT’S INVOLVED?

The course will involve reading the Bible intensively and inductively in preparation for class, and then attending interactive classes, covering the major contents, the literary structure and the theology of each book that has been studied.

This course will help students begin to understand the Bible in its original context, and thus to be able to apply the Bible more accurately for today.

 

WHEN AND WHERE?

Classes will take place at Woodbridge Chapel (GraceLife London) one Saturday per month for 10 months, and students will be expected to complete reading assignments, and submit coursework, all focused on the books of the Bible being studied.

 

WHO CAN STUDY?

The Bible Survey course is open to both men and women who desire to intensively study the Bible.

 

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Our Bible Survey course costs £1000, payable in instalments. The total cost is £1250 but we subsidise £250 of that cost to keep the course fee as affordable as possible.

 

ESSENTIAL DATES:

We hold our New Student Orientation Day in August, with classes starting in September each year. Classes are held every second Saturday of the month, continuing through to June of the following year, for a total duration of 10 months.
