All in one book. The Bible.

The Bible is a compelling narrative, a revelation of God, and a formational treasure – and yet it’s also confusing. It confounds, it agitates, it fosters debate and changes perspectives. 

Laidlaw is grounded on the centrality of the Bible to understanding life – and committed to helping all people study its pages to discover more about God, Jesus, the Spirit and faithful living in the 21^stcentury. 

 Our Biblical studies courses provide world-class teaching that provide an honest encounter with the Scriptures, and the skills required for ongoing engagement with this world-changing book.
