A distinctive and most important lesson in this BSM Online course on Discipleship is the What, Why, and How of a Discipleship Framework. A FRAMEWORK is basic structure that can serve as support, guide for something that can be built and expanded. The framework also indicates what parts are needed and how they would interrelate. A framework for discipleship therefore is a basic structure that also indicates what actions, programs, activities, and curriculum to use to achieve the goal. The framework will provide creativity in the discipling methods at the same time helps in keeping the expanding discipling efforts in the right focus. These questions will be dealt with using the Destiny City Church “Moving Experience” discipleship framework as model.

BSM Online students did not miss the benefits and all the fun of studying together. Assignments were designed to make them research, discuss and study together.

The BSM Online students starts the Homiletics course under Rev. Rey Calusay and will be demonstrating their preaching skill at the end of the course. Training men and women called of God how to communicate the gospel is a very essential component of the training in BSM. Preaching is God’s chosen method of communicating His will and Purpose for man man. Preaching is a faithful declaration of the whole counsel of God, by a man sent by God, with the purpose of persuading men to respond positively to God. It is the declaration of the grace of God to human need on the authority of the throne of God and it demands on the part of those who hear that they show obedience to the thing declared.

BSM Online kicks off the year 2022 with an analytical study of the earthly life and ministry of Christ as presented in the Gospel of John, focusing on the presentation of the deity of Jesus Christ and the importance of faith in Him. Historical events and developments in the intertestamental times as they relate to the preparation of the birth of the Messiah and later to the spread of the gospel Message, as well as the major descriptions of the New Testament world will be studied as an introduction.
