SOURCE OF LIGHT MINISTRIES BIBLE STUDY COURSES CATALOG 2013-2014 Source of Light Ministries International, Inc. 1011 Mission Road, Madison, Georgia 30650 Phone: (706) 342-0397 • Fax: (706) 342-9072 Email: slm@sourcelight.org Web Site: www.sourcelight.org Source of Light is engaged in a worldwide literature ministry. For many years it has met the spiritual needs of thousands through Bible correspondence courses and other literature. Lessons are distributed by the International Headquarters in Madison, Georgia, and its Discipleship Training Branches (DTB) and Associate Discipleship Schools (ADS) throughout the world. This literature is produced in the Source of Light Print Shop by personnel dedicated to the task of making Christ known through the printed page. This enables us to provide large quantities of materials to SLM DTB offices and, at times, to help with the expense of these materials through a literature grant to an ADS. Believing that Christian fellowship and sound Bible teaching are vital to growth in the Christian life, Source of Light encourages its Discipleship Training Branches and Associate Discipleship Schools to channel their converts into local Bible-believing churches or to establish new churches, if necessary. A brochure, Discipleship Training (PR-12), is available which explains the various plans through which the courses may be used by other qualified ministries or individuals. Representatives, Missionaries, and Appointees of Source of Light are often available to present the ministry and its needs to churches, missionary conferences, and other groups. Contact: the SLM Public Relations office for scheduling Representatives; the Human Resources Department for scheduling Missionaries and Appointees; and the Literature Coordinator concerning the use of SLM materials.

Bible courses and other literature are printed and sent out as the Lord provides. No charge is made to the student. For those using the material in bulk under the plans 1, 3, and 5, we anticipate they will cover the cost of material and shipping unless other arrangements are made. Literature grants (when available) must be approved. Our ability to make literature grants depends on the Lord supplying the funds, so care must be used in making these grants. We anticipate those able to do so will share in the cost of the materials they order. Those receiving bulk shipments of materials will receive a shipping form, stating the cost of the material and postage. The recipient should then send the balance indicated. Materials are stocked for returning to the Madison offices for grading, or with “no address” for use with the Discipleship Ministries. They must stamp their address on them for mailing purposes. * * * * * * * * * Source of Light Ministries is engaged in a worldwide literature ministry, offering Bible correspondence courses for use in other ministries. The lessons are effective with individual students, or in group studies. They are ideal for follow-up programs. Much of our ministry involves the use of The Mailbox Club curriculum. These lessons are written by Mr. George Eager and the staff of TMC, and copyrighted by The Mailbox Club, Inc., Valdosta, Georgia. SLM International has permission to use these materials in its worldwide ministry. If you need an application to use literature, an order form, or brochures giving pertinent information about Source of Light Ministries International, please request these. Check our Web Site (www. sourcelight.org) which will provide further information concerning the ministry. SLM I nternational 2013 - 2014 C atalog • 7 COURSES OFFERED SOURCE OF LIGHT MINISTRIES has a number of courses on the adult level. Most of these courses are on salvation and basic materials for new Christians. There are some Bible studies on a more advanced level that may require more study than The Mailbox Club materials. Source of Light uses the King James Version in all of our courses, unless indicated otherwise. The Mailbox Club lessons are brief and well-illustrated. Each lesson has a test section to be completed and mailed in for grading. The various series are excellent for teaching in a group setting. Their use may be varied from the suggested order of study. There are no teachers’ manuals. The teacher needs to spend extra time in preparing the lessons and doing background study. The King James Version is used in all Mailbox Club courses. However, they reserve the right to translate from the original texts where necessary, to make the meaning clear to the reader. CROSSWALK Discipleship courses are for those hungering for a deeper walk with God. The purpose of CrossWalk – 220 is to ground the believer in the Christian life as a relationship of love and grace, not a performance of religious duties. CrossWalk – Christian Marriage & Family should be most helpful to those who will diligently study and apply these truths. CrossWalk – Interpersonal Relationships shows Biblical principles for handling everyday problems relating to other people. (See page 37.) PRISON MINISTRIES Most of our English Bible study courses are put together without staples to make them usable for ministry in prisons. 8 • SLM I nternational 2013 - 2014 C atalog BIBLE COURSES See & Do 1 Lesson 1 The Mailbox Club presents… pulled the and Amy Ken to the top of red wagon into the the hill.

The first people were very happy! But now many things are not beautiful, and many people are often unhappy. There is lying, stealing, hatred, and fighting in the world today. There is sickness, sadness, and death. Who is this enemy who brought sin into the world? His name is Satan! He is also called the devil. He hates God, and he hates us too. From the Bible we learn that Satan was created as a beautiful angel named “Lucifer.” He was the wisest, the most beautiful, and the most powerful angel that God ever created.

In it we’ll find the answers to the most important questions in life: We are not going to study man’s ideas about these great questions, but we will find the answers in the Bible, the most wonderful Book ever written. MAN’S Complete Ruin in E 3 • Why am I here? • Where am I going? • How can I become a child of God? • How can I live the Christian life? The Bible is a revelation. The word “revelation” means an unveiling. In the Bible God has removed the veil from many questions. He has told us secrets concerning creation, life, death, and life after death—things that we could never know if God had not chosen to tell us about them. SIN Book 1 1 Book 2 2 3 Book 3 4 5 Book 4 6 7 Book 5 8 9 Book 6 10 11 Book 7 12 13 me lco GOD’S Perfect Salvation The Bible is the story of man’s complete ruin in sin and God’s perfect salvation in Christ. You should memorize these ten words. As you study the Bible, you will find that everything in the Bible is related to one or the other of these two phrases. The Bible is different from any other book ever written because it was inspired of God. The Bible says, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God. . . .” God Himself is the true Author of the Bible, although He used many men to write it. God told these men what to write and even the words to use. The Bible says, “For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” 2 Peter 1:21 in CHRIST 1 Book 8 14 15 Book 9 16 17 Book 10 18 19 Book 11 20 21 Book 12 22 23 Book 13 24 25 Victory Over Satan How to Live the Christian Life Consecration One Body in Christ The Local Church The Great Commission Approved Unto God Leading Souls to Christ Prayer and Warfare How to Overcome Temptation Victory in Christ Jesus is Coming Soon Certificate BOOK 1 Lessons 1-3 PRACTICAL CHRISTIAN LIVING is for adults and may be used for older teens if they have studied the series leading up to it.

This five-chapter story makes the way of salvation, the call to commitment, and the cause of missions clear, strong, and personal. It is a story that one cannot forget. There are five days of cliff-hanging episodes with twenty full-color visuals (11” x 14”). There is a coloring book (EN:VI-CB) that goes with this story and children enjoy the story anew as they color the pictures. Get this spiritually-challenging story for your class or VBS today.

WWBI offers a 135-credit unit program to train students in all the basic Biblical knowledge necessary to equip them for leadership in the New Testament Church. WWBI is produced in the best tradition of PIM (the Programmed Instructional Method) and is therefore self-instructing. WWBI does not require a professional faculty to achieve its goals. How YOU Can Have a Bible Institute When you contact us at the address in the front of the catalog, we will send you by return mail a WWBI Catalog, or you can view or download a complete catalog on line at: http://www.sourcelight.org/tools-for-ministry/advanced-courses. In it you will find: 1. An explanation of the WWBI concept of training. 2. A listing of the WWBI Curriculum and a description of what is included in each course. 3. The WWBI requirements for graduation. 4. A step-by-step procedure for starting a new Bible Institute, including costs, time factor, etc. 5. An Application Form to indicate your desire to begin a WWBI Bible Institute. WWBI is designed to be used in an organized institute setting within a mission or a local church, but is adaptable to individual study as well. WWBI will provide you with the tools you need to organize and operate a Bible Institute. We provide training for the institute staff, everything from setting up an institute classroom to student assistance, record keeping, certificates of recognition, and diploma forms for graduates. When you ask SLM International to help you set up a WWBI Institute, and are approved to do so, we stay with you until your institute is ready to operate. 30 • SLM I nternational 2013 - 2014 C atalog ADVANCED STUDIES WWBI courses are available in the following categories: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
