What is the BCC?

The BCC is a 12 week course designed to give you a thorough understanding of the inductive approach to Bible study, equipping you with many tools for integrating the Word of God into your personal life, and using it as a foundation for ministry. You will learn how to employ many creative and diverse methods for reading, interpreting and applying the scriptures.

The Bible is the textbook, and topics include Old and New Testament History, Biblical Geography, Preaching and Teaching Skills, and memorising and meditating on Scripture. This school will help you develop a strong biblical foundation that will benefit both your personal life and your calling.

You will have opportunities to be involved in topical seminars, dramatic recreations, and various forms of research, including historical, archaeological, literary and geographical studies. During the course, you'll read through the whole bible and study many individual books in depth from both old and new testaments. You will have the opportunity to work with every form of literature in the bible, including the Gospels, the Epistles, the Torah, the Prophetic and Poetical books.

Where does the BCC lead?

Although the BCC is a stand-alone course it is designed to be compatible with the longer 9 month SBS and upon successful completion of the BCC you can proceed onto the 2nd and 3rd quarters if you desire. Please note that YWAM Melbourne does not run the SBS only the BCC.

Who can apply?
