About Emmaus
Our Name
The name Emmaus Ministries comes from the Emmaus Road story found in Luke 24:13-35. In this story, two downcast travelers on the road to Emmaus are discussing Jesus’ recent crucifixion and death when they encounter the resurrected Jesus. The travelers’ eyes are opened as Jesus explains “what was said in all the Scriptures concerning Himself.” Jesus reveals Himself to these travelers and their hearts burn within them as they begin to understand who Jesus really is. In the same way, Emmaus Ministries exists to bring students face to face with Jesus Christ through the study of the Bible.
Our Mission
Emmaus Ministries exists to equip the Body of Christ with the Word of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ through Inductive Bible Study, Authentic Relationships, and Community Life.
Testimonials
“This is an absolutely fantastic school for an equally fantastic value. If you ever wanted to know your Bible better, this is worth checking out.”
“This school is incredible! It will completely change your view of the Bible, and make you realize that God is faithful, loving, trustworthy, and fighting with you and for you. The best thing you can do with 9 months of your life!”
“My SBS training has been incredibly helpful to me in my work as a church planter. Whether it be preparing a teaching for a small house church or a sermon for a more established church, or mentoring a believer, or going out to share the Gospel with non-believers, or hanging out with my neighbors, or just simply having a team meeting with my co-workers, or having my own personal quiet time, I use my training from SBS ALL the time.”
