SIBI Satellite Schools are simply groups of people who gather where they live to study God's word using materials from Sunset External Studies. Those who participate receive Biblical teaching from the excellent instructors at SIBI via video and audio courses. These professional courses are packaged with relevant reading materials as well as associated study guides.
Located in church buildings and homes across the USA and around the world, Satellite Schools allow people the opportunity to study God's word in-depth with excellent instruction adapted to their schedule and circumstances. It is not necessary for a person to uproot his or her family or to raise support in order to participate in a Satellite School. This cost-effective method of study allows a student to study part-time and still continue with his or her normal daily activities.
Purpose
Satellite Schools serve the purpose of training church leaders and spokesmen where they are without requiring relocation to the residential school in Lubbock. However, just as importantly, they also meet the needs of a grassroots movement of individual Christians who desire to be more effective servants in the kingdom strengthened by deeper Bible knowledge. The rapid growth in this ministry illustrates how effective this tool has become to hundreds of Christians seeking in-depth Bible knowledge. The statistics reported below demonstrate this fact.
