Learning Objectives:
To study the entire Bible in one year, aiming not only to read it, but also to learn about each book in detail, and to explore its background. What, Where, Why, Who, When and How. The programme aims to faithfully study the scripture, reducing emphasis on denominational or doctrinal interpretations. Its sole objective is to study the Word of God, leaving the rest to the Holy Spirit.

Pedagogical Approach:
This academic programme will be delivered in a blended learning fashion. It will include video lectures, taught virtually by respected Bible scholars based in the United Kingdom and the United States, as well as face-to-face sessions led by protestant and evangelical pastors in Geneva. A facilitator-led discussion at the end of every class will enhance the experience.
Methodology:
The teaching will consist of face-to-face and video-based lectures for approximately one year. It will require participants to read the relevant book or chapters of the Bible during the week prior to each class. The entire curriculum will be delivered in English.
Learning Materials:
All lectures and discussion will be based on the English Standard Version of the Bible. The required textbook will be Unlocking the Bible. Each class includes a video by Reverend David Pawson on the specific book or chapters of the Bible assigned for that week.
Tuition Cost:
This programme carries no tuition cost. Every participant is expected to buy the required textbook and to bring it to class, along with his or her Bible. All meals during the Saturday classes will be the responsibility of the participant.
Location and Timeframe:
All classes will be held on Saturdays from 10:30AM - 1:30pm (except during Geneva public holidays and Christmas break). The programme will start mid-September and graduation will be celebrated mid-July the following year. All dates are subject to change. Exact meeting location is to be confirmed.
