If you are a believer in Christ but geographically are unable to attend Duluth Bible Church, our G.I.B.S. may still be of spiritual assistance to you.
If you have been saved by the grace of God, are desirous of further equipping for ministry, and attend one of our participating sister churches, please consider the following.
Since we do not want to attract believers away from their local church where they should be serving, we have developed a working agreement with your pastor/board to offer you more specialized training. If the elders of D.B.C. accept and your pastor approves your application for the G.I.B.S., your Phase 1 training will involve…
· Completing Old Testament Synthesis (via interactive manual form)
· Completing the following courses via classroom or taped correspondence courses:
¾ Romans 1-5
¾ Romans 6-8
¾ A, B, C’s for Christian Growth 1
¾ A, B, C’s for Christian Growth 2
¾ Biblical Distinctions
¾ Dispensational Truth 1
¾ Bible Study Methods/Rules of Interpretation
¾ Teaching Principles & Methods
¾ Completing 3 approved classes via your pastors pulpit / teaching ministry
Upon successful completion of Phase 1, you may then apply for Phase 2, though all Monday night classes are offered only at D.B.C. Furthermore, you would need to complete the other required classes via tape correspondence courses. If you are interested in pursuing this, make it a matter of prayer, discuss this with your pastor, and fill out the application at the back of this brochure (Appendix 5).
