  4. DBS Elements • Bible Study – • Just read or listen to the focal verses (Don’t explain or teach) • For pre-believers you will start with Creation and work through Bible to Christ, focusing on the attributes of God • For new believers you will start with commands of Christ • Focus is on the Scripture, not human opinion • How would you restate this in your own words? (Understanding the Scripture) • If they significantly mis-state anything important – ask where did the scripture say that…? Your hope is for the group to start asking these questions as you go further in the process. (Group Self-correction)

  5. DBS Elements • Bible Study – • What does this teach us about God? (Knowing God) • If this is true, how would we have to obey? (Obedience) • With whom do you plan to share what you just learned? (Replication/Evangelism)
