Mondays at TBS

Participants gathered for "Mondays at TBS," engaging in public scripture reading and enjoying a book club discussion in a community atmosphere.

Following JSU, participants can enjoy a free lunch while engaging in The Public Reading of Scripture (PRS) from Noon - 1 PM. Offered both in-person and online (via Zoom), these gatherings foster meaningful connections and inspire deeper reflections. Join us in sharing in these enriching experiences!

Together, with your support, we aim to glorify God by impacting multitudes of souls for Christ and fulfill the Great Commission by the power of God’s Spirit by training at least 5,000 leaders that each reach 200 people for Christ during their lifetime and together impact 1,000,000 souls.
