Imagine God gave us a clear map to follow: the Bible. Many have studied its history and languages, using that knowledge to explain or even debate it. But what if instead of walking the path, we settled for learning about the map? For all our knowledge, we never truly embarked on the journey of true discipleship. 

In RVL Discipleship: The Study, join Bible scholar Ray Vander Laan as he guides you from simply knowing Scripture to experiencing it as a disciple of Jesus. Through the lens of culture, history, and context, you’ll explore what it meant to be one of Jesus’ original disciples—and what that means for us today. This four-season video series invites small groups and individuals to take steps of faith, moving from learning about Christ to living like Him. 

 

SEASON 1

Jesus’ original disciples really knew their Bible. As modern-day followers of Christ, it is vitally important that we value Scripture in the same way. Season 1 of The Study outlines how we are meant to interact with the Text: 1) approaching it from the context in which it was written; 2) exploring how Jesus used the Scriptures in His teaching; 3) understanding how His followers were meant to be changed by what they learned; and 4) identifying the major paradigm that ties the whole Bible together.

 

SEASON 2

Discipleship was formalized with the rise of rabbis in Jewish culture, but the concept really started much earlier than that. This idea of knowing God’s path and faithfully walking in it began when He called Israel out of Egypt, setting them apart as a kingdom of priests to show the rest of the world what He was like. Building on the tools and central themes from Season 1, this season explores the roots of discipleship, examining how God trained and established the nation of Israel in preparation for Jesus’ ministry to come.

 

SEASON 3

What was daily life like for the Jews of Jesus’ day? How did they practice their faith under Roman occupation? And most importantly, what did it mean to be a rabbi? Season 3 of The Study focuses on Jesus as a man, our God made flesh, who chose to reveal Himself as a first century rabbi to a first century Jewish audience.

 

SEASON 4

What did it mean to be the disciple of a rabbi in Jesus’ day? How did someone become a disciple, and what were they meant to do? The fourth and final season of The Study focuses on the practical role of a rabbi’s followers in the first century, unpacking cultural and scriptural implications and applying them to our lives as modern-day followers of Jesus.
