Pod # 26 How To Lead A DBS Group

If I can’t remember what we read, how can I share it with others? 

In this Pod, I talk to a woman who has a lot of experience leading DBS groups and training others to lead them. We walk through the 12 questions of DBS, and my guest shares her insights on each one. Even if you’ve done DBS training in the past, this conversation will give you fresh and practical insights.

When I was living in the West, we would study books about the Bible that were very much leading to the answers. But through DBS, a new believer can discover the Bible for themselves.
