Having a close friend can always be so meaningful. Sharing good times and special memories go a long way. Two sweet ladies, Senay Tucker and Nyjah McCoy, who were roommates in Wilmington, Delaware, chose to study World Bible School’s Online Lessons together. Craving to learn the truth about Jesus Christ, both ladies quickly fell in love with the WBS studies, eager to learn all they could from God’s Word!
As the ladies progressed through their studies, each had their own separate Study Helper. Frank Calloway studied with Senay and Rose Moore studied with Nyjay. Neither Study Helper was aware their Students were studying together.
After completing their lessons and requesting Follow-up, Nyjah and Senay contacted one of the churches of Christ recommended to them in their area. Within less than a week, they started a Bible study with Frank Watson, the minister of the Northeast church of Christ in Wilmington.
On Easter Sunday, both ladies chose to be baptized into Christ. There is no doubt the two were filled with joy and exuberance as they became sisters in Christ! Nyjay said, “The water was extra cold, but how glad I am for taking that step!” Both Senay and Nyjah’s family visited the Northeast church of Christ for the big event. Seeds continue to be sown through these sweet ladies’ response to the Gospel of Christ.

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.
