YBL Jackson offers various types of studies that are geared to meet
you where you are in your spiritual journey. The Investigative Study. This introductory
study normally takes about 3-4 weeks to complete and usually involves two
people. This study is for those who want to know how to begin to walk with
God. Topics covered deal with the validity of the Bible, finding purpose
for our lives and how to begin a relationship with God. Meeting times and
location are flexible depending on participant's schedule. |

The Concentrating on the Majors. This study takes normally
16 weeks to complete and involves a group of men 6-10 in number. The COM
is for those who want to learn or review a basic introduction to the bible
and its most essential truths. Vital
Christian principles are explained in this study and topics covered range
from how to be sure of your salvation, to experiencing God's forgiveness to
how to grow in your relationship with God. The COM study usually
meets weekly during the breakfast or lunch hours and is normally located at
the YBL Jackson office. The format of the group is very discussion oriented
which affords participants the opportunity of building friendships and of
discussing any personal issues that might be pertinent. At the end of this
study, participants are given the option of moving into a discipleship
group. New COM groups begin after each
banquet. |
