Purpose
In Action Magazine, “Purpose” learn about purpose from the scriptures.
At World Bible School, we believe that hope is not a passive virtue, but when combined with thoughtful planning and faithful giving, it becomes a powerful expression of stewardship and mission. Our five-year plan went into effect the first day of January 2026 and goes through December 31, 2030. Our strategic plan is more than a roadmap, it is a prayerful commitment to share Jesus with the world in intentional, measurable and sustainable ways.
This plan outlines bold goals to engage over one million Bible students annually, expanding global tools like WBS Online, Ocean Bridge, and Mathetis; and strengthening partnerships with congregations worldwide. It reflects careful thought, collaboration, and a desire to be effective in His mission while remaining rooted in God’s Word and dependent on Him through prayer. But a plan alone does not change lives, God’s people do, by His working through us and in us. And behind every Bible study, every Follow-up, and every new disciple, is the generosity of God’s people. Giving fuels strategy. It enables innovation, supports outreach, and equips the Church to act. As WBS seeks to grow its impact, the need for faithful partners grows as well. From expanding digital platforms to increasing church involvement and training Study Helpers, each initiative relies on resources entrusted by donors who believe in His mission.
At the same time, strategic planning honors those gifts. It ensures that every dollar is used wisely, every effort is aligned with purpose, and every opportunity is maximized for kingdom impact. Planning helps us practice good stewardship by setting clear goals, measuring progress and adapting to reach more souls effectively. One of the most exciting aspects of this plan is the shared role of the global church. Congregations are not just supporters, they are partners in recruitment, teaching and Follow-up. Likewise, donors are not just contributors, they are co-laborers in the harvest. Together, strategic planning and giving create momentum. They allow WBS to dream boldly while acting faithfully. They connect vision with provision, ensuring that when seekers are ready to study God’s Word, the church is ready to respond.
As we move forward, we invite you to see your giving as part of God’s greater strategy.
Every gift, every prayer, and every effort joins a unified mission to equip the church, reach the lost, and bring the Good News to a waiting world.

Join Brian Rex Davis and his guests as they tackle the third principle of productive Bible study: Scripture can never mean what it never meant. What a passage meant to its original audience sets the boundaries for what it can mean today. Jesus models this in Luke 24:44–49 by showing how the Law, Prophets, and Psalms pointed to his suffering, resurrection, and the proclamation of repentance.
2 Timothy 2:15 (“rightly handling the word of truth”) implies there is a wrong way to handle Scripture.
