One course · two companion editions · all free
An Apostolic Bible Study Course. The Disciple Edition and Teacher Guide follow the same complete thirty-session course together.
Companion edition
The learner-facing edition of a thirty-session Apostolic Bible study in three gates, moving from the story Scripture tells to the response it calls for and the life that follows.
Companion edition
The companion instructor-facing guide for the same thirty-session course, with the depth and teaching notes needed to open Scripture with a disciple.
What is here
Twelve Upper Room lessons and one thirty-session course. The New Believer six cover salvation, repentance, baptism in Jesus' name, receiving the Holy Ghost, holy living, and growing in Christ. Growing Deeper adds six on the oneness of God, the name of Jesus, the Word of God, the church, the fruit and gifts of the Spirit, and Christ's return. The Way is longer and separate: thirty sessions in three gates across a 204-page Disciple Edition and a 222-page Teacher Guide. Everything on this page is free and open to everyone, with no email address needed.
How to use it
Each Upper Room lesson is a full web page: a key verse, the teaching in three short sections, a list of passages to look up in your own Bible, and a closing thought to take to heart. Either series also downloads as a print-ready booklet if you would rather teach from paper, and either can be read page by page on the site. Marking a lesson complete saves a note in your own browser only; nothing is scored and nothing is sent to Faith Schooling. If you want the longer course instead, start with The Way's Disciple Edition and keep the Teacher Guide open beside it.
Where to begin
Most people should read the New Believer six in order, because Growing Deeper assumes them. Those twelve lessons suit personal study, a new-convert class, a one-to-one Bible study, or a family reading together. The Way suits a longer commitment — thirty sessions, so roughly thirty weeks at one a week — and is written so that a believer six months old in God can teach it. Neither replaces your own Bible; both are built to send you back into it.
