What Makes These Courses “Free Online Bible Study Courses”?

Man Studying His Bible Well

When you hear “free online Bible study courses,” you might picture a huge academic program. Perhaps it conjures up images of multiple semesters, thick textbooks, and tests.

That isn't Bite-Sized Bible courses.

Don't get me wrong. Colleges and seminaries can be valuable for some people sometimes. But what many Christians crave and really learn from is clear, trustworthy, bite-sized teaching they can fit into normal life.

Deep learning is learned at church from your pastor and Sunday school teachers. Here, we want to make it as simple as possible. Your life is busy. We want to help.

What Do These Free Online Bible Study Courses Offer?

These mini-courses are:

  • Free of charge: No tuition, no paywall, and no upsell required to finish the lessons.
  • Fully online: Access lessons anytime from your phone, tablet, or computer.
  • Bible-centered: Each course starts with Scripture and builds from there, not from trends or speculation.
  • Short and focused: Most are three-lesson minicourses on a single, well-defined question or theme.
  • Self-paced: Work through the material as slowly or as quickly as you need.

Simple, right? We hope so!
