\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The Bethel Series is a two year overview of the bible which is divided into 21 weeks on the Old Testament and 21 weeks on the New Testament.<\/p>

It is taught in over 47 denominations all over the world and to over 1 million people. It has been in Southern Africa since 1985 and taught in many different denominations to close to 100 000 people<\/p>

It is not a bible study per se, although the content of the entire bible is covered.<\/p>

It was designed to equip those who attend the course with the knowledge and skills necessary to unlock the truths of the scriptures.<\/p>

What is also unique about Bethel is its format. Assignments, Key concepts and Pictures are used as memory aids.<\/p>

The result is a compact well presented and easily accessible course.<\/p>
