WBS Comptroller
As we begin 2025, World Bible School is blessed to welcome two new members to our team. We are always encouraged when God connects us to people that bring in fresh talent and experience, and who are eager to put their unique gifts to work at WBS.
Our Support department was thrilled to add Travena Rogan, from Lebanon, Tennessee as a Support Associate at the start of the year. Travena has a strong background in customer service, working primarily in the healthcare industry, and we are looking forward to having her share her skills and knowledge with WBS. She also speaks at Christian women’s events across the country.
Regarding her new role, Travena writes, “Perfect is not what I seek to be, but a follower of Jesus is where my footsteps will be. I’ve prayed periodically to be able to work in ministry and God has tremendously blessed me. I am humbly excited to be a part of the Support Team and further the Kingdom through WBS.”
In more good news, Joshua Cook joined WBS in early February as a Regional Advancement Representative for his home state of Tennessee, where he lives in Rockvale. With a master’s degree in Ministry from Freed-Hardeman University, Josh has served as a minister in multiple congregations of the Lord’s church throughout Tennessee, and he is ready to continue his path with WBS.
Josh shares, “What an honor it is to serve World Bible School and to offer congregations the means to advance God’s kingdom on earth. The future of Christianity is indeed bright, beloved. For my part, I’m truly excited to support this visionary organization as it continues to shine the Gospel light in such an attractive, effective, and inviting way.”
We are grateful for the opportunity to grow our team here at WBS, and know that God has great plans in store for both Travena and Josh in 2025.
We are currently seeking new full and part-time positions within our Support, Marketing, Finance, Advancement and Church Relations departments. If you are interested in joining our team, please send your resume and a short letter sharing why you would like to work with us to help@worldbibleschool.net.

This episode of One More Chapter explores how to properly apply Bible study today by first determining a passage’s original meaning, purpose, principles, and precedents, then bringing those forward without imposing modern customs or values onto the Scripture.
In this episode of One More Chapter, Brian Rex Davis and his co-hosts Noah and Bryson Continue their discussion of the concepts of purpose, principle, and precedent and how they help bridge the gap between meaning and application. They classify different types of biblical precedents—such as accepting both the practice and principle of baptism, retaining principles while adapting culturally bound practices like greetings or modesty, and rejecting both when Scripture indicates—and illustrate necessary inference through Peter’s experience with Cornelius in Acts 10–11.

This episode of One More Chapter continues the series on Bible study principles for bridging the gap between a passage’s original meaning and its application today. Hosts Brian Rex Davis, Noah Davis, and Bryson Davis review “purpose” and “principle,” then focus on “precedent”, emphasizing how approved apostolic examples establish binding patterns when they carry theological significance—while incidental details do not.
