📖 Bible Study Leader Specialization
Guiding Others into God’s Word with Clarity, Confidence, and Spiritual Impact
The Bible Study Leader Specialization is designed for clergy who want to lead transformative Bible study gatherings rooted in sound doctrine, Spirit-led teaching, and engaging discussion. This specialization equips you to open Scripture with others in a way that fosters spiritual growth, biblical literacy, and life application.
Whether in homes, churches, small groups, or online, Bible study leaders play a vital role in helping people connect more deeply with God’s Word—and with one another.
💬 Why It Matters
Biblical illiteracy is on the rise, even among churchgoers. Many Christians desire to grow in their understanding of the Bible but feel overwhelmed, confused, or intimidated by its depth. That’s where you come in.
This specialization matters because it trains you to become a trusted guide—someone who doesn’t just read Scripture aloud, but helps others understand it, ask good questions, apply it, and live it out. It also equips you to model humility, spiritual insight, and effective communication in every study you lead.
🧰 What You’ll Learn
To earn this specialization, you must complete your core clergy credential and maintain a 2.0 GPA, along with the following four targeted courses:
Multiplying Christian Leaders – Equips you to develop future Bible study leaders and foster spiritual multiplication in your group.
New Testament Survey – Provides essential background, themes, and context for understanding and teaching the life and message of Jesus and the early church.
Old Testament Survey – Offers an overview of the foundational books of the Bible, helping you connect the Old Testament to the Gospel and modern life.
Ministry Sciences and Communications – Trains you in communication techniques, group dynamics, and ministry leadership strategies that enhance your teaching effectiveness.
