Abstract: | Bible Studies is an indispensable component of Christianity. This is because the church thrives on biblical knowledge; however, there is a growing perception that Bible studies participation is fast becoming a challenge for most Christians today. The problem of the study was to find out the impact of Bible studies on church growth; using Grace Chapel Assembly of God Church in Kumasi as case study. The main aim of the study was to assess the effect of bible studies on church growth. On objectives; it was to examine the Bible studies program of the church, and to investigate the response of the members. It also assessed the impact of Bible studies on the growth of the church. The study adopted both qualitative and quantitative approach for data collection and analysis. The case study approach was employed and purposive sampling technique was used to select the respondents. In all sixty (60) people were selected from Grace Chapel Assembly of God Church, Kwadaso for the study. Data was collected through structured and unstructured interviews and a questionnaire. The study revealed that through Bible studies several branches have been established by the church. The work found out that poor time management, lack of proper supervision and absenteeism of members were some of the challenges that the program is grappling with. It was recommended that the pastor and the church leaders should educate the leaders who are in charge of the program on effective time management in order to run the program within the stipulated time. It was also recommended that cell groups should be created for those who stay far from the church location in order for them to have convenience in the Bible studies participation. |
