Jehovah’s Witnesses begin campaign offering Bible-based educational program
More than eight million volunteers will kick off a global campaign in September to offer a free interactive Bible educational course.
Jehovah’s Witnesses, well-known for their hallmark door-to-door ministry, also organize yearly special campaigns to raise awareness of scriptural solutions that address the concerns of the public. Last year, the nonprofit organization reported averaging more than 7 million Bible studies each month.
“Learning about the Bible helped me find practical advice not just for the big questions I had in life, but also with my day-to-day situations such as work issues or having a happy family,” said Cape Coral resident Chris Simmons. “And when I applied it and saw how my family and I benefited, it motivated me to want to learn more.”
Rudy Romero, a local spokesperson for Jehovah’s Witnesses, said that “many people are pleasantly surprised to learn how an ancient book can provide solutions for day-to-day problems and answers to life’s most perplexing questions, such as what our purpose is and what our future will bring.”
The three-lesson brochure titled “Enjoy Life Forever!” is included in the campaign offer and covers these topics:
– How Can the Bible Help You?
– The Bible Gives Hope.
– Can You Trust the Bible?
The course incorporates question and answer sessions and videos and explains how the Scriptures help improve a person’s life, such as by strengthening relationships within the family, at work and at school. Weekly lessons can be as brief as five minutes and can be conducted at an individual’s preferred location in person or via videoconference or phone call.
“There is no obligation to continue the Bible course,” said Romero. “All we ask is that people take a moment to look into how the Bible helps with problems now and offers a hope that will fix all problems permanently in the future.”
