Yale Bible Study Tools and Free Lessons & Resources
The Yale Divinity School’s Bible study resources page is the culmination of Yale Divinity School and the Rev. Harold “Skip” Masback, III’s quest to find ways to engage and connect congregations on a deeper level with God, and one another.
What started as an eight-week Bible study series for small groups has evolved into a place to find Bible study tools that can assist with personal study and enrichment, and other forms of theological education.
At Yale Divinity School, our hope is that these Bible study resources can be informative, inspiring, and challenging for anyone who utilizes them.
Who Can Benefit from Our Bible Study Resources?
The Yale Divinity School’s Bible Study provides tools and resources that are organized to be user-friendly for all.
Perhaps you are a minister looking for a Bible study curriculum to use with members of your church, or a way to train a team to serve in adult formation. Maybe you are a lay leader searching for a high-quality curriculum for Bible study with a small group
We hope our Bible study resources will provide the training or curriculum you need to effectively spread the Word of God.
Our Bible study tools aren’t only for those employed by or engaged with a church, though. Individuals or small groups looking for Bible study resources can take advantage of what our site has to offer.
Whether you’re hoping to deepen your own personal theological knowledge or discover continuing education opportunities, you’ll feel right at home with the Yale Bible study lessons and resources.
How Can These Bible Study Resources Be Used?
Whether you are looking for visual materials — like artwork, charts, or maps — to supplement Bible study lessons or you’d like to watch a lecture series to learn more about a particular book of the Bible or theme, or if you’re interested in viewing sermons by noted YDS faculty and alumni, you can find everything you need here on our resources page.
We’ve also included a wide range of sermons organized by topic. These sermons are connected to studies that you can access for free, including videos of YDS faculty discussing the scripture, study guides, discussion questions, and more. On average, each study is designed to take eight weeks.
For those who are looking to establish, organize, or enhance their sermons, we also offer the Common Revised Lectionary with links to applicable Yale Bible Study videos, and “Chapter, Verse, and Season: A Lectionary Podcast from Yale Bible Study” that features YDS faculty in conversation about a select text from the week’s assigned lectionary. New episodes drop each Monday.
Whatever your needs may be, we aim to assist you in your studies and theological development with our Bible study resources.
