Released Time
Bible Education for Your Community
Do public school students in your community have access to attend a local Released Time Bible Education program during the school day? Is God calling you to get involved?
Many of our affiliate programs have been teaching the Bible to students during the school day for decades and a couple have celebrated their centennial. . . that's over a hundred years of reaching kids for Christ!
Each program is unique, operating independently through locally owned nonprofit organizations that have the freedom to make all decisions at the local level from choosing curriculum, setting budgets and more!
We come alongside to help educate, equip and encourage Christians to start, sustain and grow local Released Time Bible Education programs.
