Discovery Bible Study

Discovery Bible Study has long been a meaningful part of Young Life Africa, and our desire is to equip every leader to use it effectively. As Young Life continues to move forward in its global mission, a central focus remains: deepening faith, strengthening community, and expanding impact.

Within this vision, Young Life Africa is committed to helping leaders and adolescents grow closer to Jesus through the Discovery Bible Study method. This approach encourages us to listen attentively to God — both through scripture and in how his Word speaks into our daily lives.

Discovery Bible Study is simple and accessible. Rather than relying on assumptions about the text, it invites a posture of humility, curiosity, and active listening. It begins with opening the Word together.
