Class Description: The goal is to have small group leaders (and potential leaders) go through this 14-week class, in which they are given the basic tools to interpret and study the Bible. This includes: Understanding the differences in translations, understanding how words/language works, understanding the historical significance of biblical times, as well as being given a basic understanding of the various biblical genres (Old Testament, New Testament, etc).

Once completed, the leaders will be very well equipped as they continue to engage their own small groups in their weekly studies. Leaders could also use this material as a potential study topic, teaching their own small group the same information, and empowering them to become better "Bible students"
