Escuela Biblica Mundial – Julieth signed up for WBS in Pereira, Columbia and began studying the Master Series courses in Spanish. Seeking more, Julieth asked her Study Helper if they could meet for an in-person Bible study, where she brought her husband, Juan, their three children and nine elderly individuals who lived in a nursing home next door to their house. Julieth and Juan had also been searching for church with “good doctrine”. After further in-person studies, Julieth and Juan were baptized into Christ, surrounded by their new church family.
This is the joy of mentoring in edification!
Many congregations have found an effective method for Follow-up by partnering with their missionaries or mission points to host a WBS Seminar or Campaign near many of their Students. Study Helpers will invite their Students to participate, connecting them to the local church. This three day seminar in Uyo, Nigeria concluded with eight baptisms.

In this episode of One More Chapter, Brian Rex Davis, Noah Davis, and Bryson Davis continue their study of biblical “principle”, explaining how general teachings give inclusive guidance that can be applied in various ways, while specific commands are authoritative and must shape belief and practice.
This episode of One More Chapter continues the series on Bible study by introducing the idea of “principle” as a way to bridge what a passage originally meant and what it means today, after first stressing purpose and context. The team takes a long–but useful–detour into Bible translations and versions—covering textual preservation, the spectrum from word-for-word to paraphrase, group vs. single-translator work, Dead Sea Scrolls, and which editions they personally use (NASB 1995, ESV, NIV 1984, etc.). The discussion on ‘principle’ will continue in the next episode!
This episode explores how understanding the purpose behind a Bible passage helps bridge the gap between what it originally meant and how it should shape life today. Brian, Noah, and Bryson discuss how purpose protects against shallow, checklist-style interpretation and helps distinguish enduring principles and examples from incidental details.
Brian Rex Davis sits down with Sahadevudu Vanga of India, a fellow missionary since gospel meetings in 1995. They talk about World Bible School’s renewed work in India and the effort to put Telugu translations and advanced courses—especially The Kingdom of God—into digital form. The conversation also covers family ministry, cultural care in a changing India, and tools that serve the next generation of the church.
