The New Emmaus

After months of anticipation and excitement, we are finally ready to announce our new programs! Emmaus ministries now offers three different ways to engage with the Bible! The New School of Biblical Studies.From August to May students of our school will journey through the entire content and narrative of the Bible. Students utilize the inductive study method (IBS) to study each book of the Bible through our classroom, seminars, and retreats. This 20-hour per week program integrates academic and spiritual development through one-on-ones, weekly worship, and community meals. Students will get a deep dive into exploring major themes and important background information for every book of the Bible! For the first time, we are opening up the school for those who wish to commute to our school! Along with participation in the school, students now have the opportunity to pursue a seminary education or an internship in a local church through our ministry partnerships. The Biblical Narrative SeriesThe Biblical Narrative Series takes participants on a journey through the Bible alongside our SBS students. This monthly series tells the story of the Bible through ten evening lectures, which provide an overview for understanding the Bible as a whole. These lectures will also explore the themes and setting of the books which make up each part of the story. The narrative program is designed to be open to the public and accessible to all types of learners. No experience or outside assignments required. Biblical Literacy programEmmaus partners with the vision of local churches and ministries to see every believer equipped with essential tools to engage their Bible. The Biblical literacy program consists of:Why the Bible matters: find out why the Bible is essential to the life of a follower of ChristBible Overview: understand the history of God and his people from beginning to end.How to study the Bible: Learn how to observe, interpret and apply the Scriptures for yourself.This program is brought directly to the local church through our seminars and Retreats designed specifically for congregations. We hope that you are just as excited for what God is going to do through our new programs as we are. We are so grateful for your support and encouragement in this time of transition and can’t wait to see Central Florida absolutely rocked with the Gospel.
