 Bibles in devotional life\, smart phone/tablet apps\, How did we get from 
 the originaldocument to the Bible in our hands\, how books were chosen to 
 be in the Bible\, the nature of theBible\, and how can I use it to grow in
  my faith? The only required textbook for the class will be aBible\, but m
 any tools and reference works will be explored. We hope every church membe
 r andvisitor will go through this study as we consider this class to be pa
 rt of the basic Discipleship ofour church. It has been taught before and p
