Let Ministry Forum Lead Your Next Bible Study
Imagine offering your church a rich, interactive Bible study experience — without having to plan, prepare, or lead it yourself.
This winter, Ministry Forum is excited to offer The Bible Course from the Canadian Bible Society — an 8-session online Bible study that traces the grand narrative of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation. And here’s the best part: we do all the heavy lifting.
You don’t need to design lesson plans.
You don’t need to lead the sessions.
You don’t even need to show up — but we’d love it if you did!
Instead, you can simply invite your congregation to join, knowing that Ministry Forum will handle the teaching, facilitation, and logistics. All you have to do is spread the word.
Why The Bible Course?
If you’ve ever wished for a way to help your church see the "big picture" of Scripture — to understand how the people, events, and books of the Bible all connect — this course is it.
Participants will explore major themes of the Bible, meet key characters, and connect the dots between the Old and New Testaments. Each session provides practical tools that help people engage with Scripture in their daily lives.
The feedback from past participants has been clear: People finish The Bible Course with more confidence in reading and understanding Scripture. And isn’t that what we want for our people — to feel equipped, inspired, and eager to go deeper?
Here’s How It Works
Dates: Thursdays, starting January 23rd
Time: 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM (ET)
Location: Online via Zoom
Who’s Leading? Rev. John Borthwick, Director of Lifelong Learning at Knox College, will facilitate each session with video content, group discussions, and interactive engagement.
Cost: $25 per participant (includes access to the live sessions, recordings, and a digital course manual)
All sessions will be recorded, so if someone misses a week, they can catch up on their own schedule.
What’s in it for You (as a Pastor or Ministry Leader)?
One Less Thing on Your Plate: Let Ministry Forum take care of the teaching, facilitation, and follow-up. You can simply invite your congregation, and we’ll do the rest.
A Chance to Grow Alongside Your People: Join the sessions yourself — not as a leader, but as a participant. Be part of the learning experience, side-by-side with your people.
Equip Your Church to Engage with Scripture: The Bible Course provides tools and confidence that help people read and understand Scripture more deeply. It’s an investment in spiritual growth.
How Can You Be Involved?
Invite Your Congregation: Spread the word to your church through your Sunday announcements, church email, or social media. We’ve already got those pieces ready for your at the bottom of this post.
Register Yourself: Join as a participant and grow alongside your congregation.
Relax and Let Us Lead: Ministry Forum will handle the rest.
You don’t have to carry this one on your own. This is an opportunity to give your people the gift of deeper engagement with Scripture while giving yourself the gift of breathing room.
