Moody School of the Bible is an answer to prayer for rural pastors and Christian leaders in West Africa. This innovative approach to ministry provides biblical and theological training through solar-powered devices using content from Moody Radio’s long-running teaching program, Radio School of the Bible.
The school’s achievements so far have far exceeded everyone’s expectations. Since launching in 2017, Moody School of the Bible has already graduated 1,000 students in Ghana—with many more graduates to come through your financial support!
Thanks to the giving of generous supporters, Moody Bible Institute partnered with Theovision, a nonprofit ministry in Ghana, in 2016 to contextualize, translate, and record the course material. Each student who attends Moody School of the Bible receives a solar player loaded with an audio copy of the Bible in their language plus four Bible classes for each of two training levels. Students take oral exams on their phone.
“I really appreciate the opportunity that has been given to me to undergo this program,” said Jacob Amoah, a Level 2 graduate. “I have gained more knowledge in God’s Word, which is helping me in my evangelism work as I share the Bible with people in my community.”
Dr. Gregg Quiggle, Moody professor of theology, was in Ghana last summer to speak to the 439 graduates at Moody School of the Bible’s 2021 graduation ceremony. Dr. Quiggle praises God for the incredible success of the program.
“I can’t even describe what it’s like to see these people who have desperately wanted something to finally get something that they can understand and use,” he said. “It’s truly one of the most important things I’ve ever done. This is pure Mr. Moody—providing basic Bible education to lay people, the people who need it the most and have the least access to it. In many places in the world, people do not read or write. And while many have cell phones, most are basic phones with no screen.”
Isaac Kwaku Mensah, a Level 2 graduate, said his love for God and his faith grew significantly through Moody School of the Bible.
“I recommended the program to some friends who were amazed at my new life, and they also enrolled,” he said. “They are now graduating in Level 1. Thank you so much for this knowledge and insight.”
Through your generosity, more rural pastors like Isaac can receive the biblical and theological training they need to share the gospel and disciple believers in West Africa. As we raise crucial funds for Moody Radio during Spring Share 2022, we’ll join with Theovision International to help access a matching gift for the Moody School of the Bible project in West Africa.
