My name is Max Anders. I am a graduate of Dallas Seminary and earned my doctorate at Western Seminary. I have taught at the college and seminary level, have pastored for many years, am an author of over 25 books, including the bestselling 30 Days to Understanding the Bible, and am the creator and general editor of the 32-volume Holman Bible Commentary Series.
I have recently created a DVD-based discipleship curriculum entitled, The Brave New Discipleship System. It includes four courses, 36 lessons, 18 hours of instruction, that enable a person to learn more, easier, and faster than any other resource I know of. I am preparing to convert the hard-copy version to an Internet course to make it more affordable and more accessible to a greater number of people, including international destinations where hardcopies are difficult and expensive to send.
Most Christians would like to know the Bible better and how to live it. But it can be overwhelming. We help you learn what you need to know, what you were meant to be, and what you are gifted to do - easier and faster - giving you the biblical foundation to realize your God-given potential.
I would like to get this life-changing information into the hands of everyone who wants it. However, the hardcopy of the curriculum is expensive and is typically only available if a church purchases it and provides it for its members. However, if the information is converted to an Internet course, then for a modest monthly fee, anyone can have affordable access to it, and build a foundation of biblical knowledge that will enable them guide and accelerate their spiritual growth.
For those who contribute, you will play a vital role in making this breakthrough Bible teaching available to a very large population from all over the world, helping spread the gospel and understanding of Scripture, and helping to improve lives for time and eternity. Individuals from countries where Christian material is restricted, or very hard to come by, would find it especially valuable. You could help make a life-changing difference for many people all over the world.
We need $10,000 to help make this happen. That money will go toward:
- Web-site creation, tech support, programming, graphics, etc.
- Training and hardware updates
- Marketing, search-engine optimization, split-testing, Google ad-words, social media ads, etc.
Learning what the Bible teaches and how to live it can be overwhelming.You cannot live what you don’t know or understand, and you cannot know and understand a very complex subject unless someone does a superior job of teaching you.
It is not possible to reduce the Bible/Christian life to the snap of a finger, but it is possible to make it clearer and easier than it often is. If you want to get up to speed quickly, you have to have the essentials distilled into a compact and easy-to-learn summary, and conveyed in an enjoyable and effective way.That’s just what I’ve done.
This material was field-tested by over 1500 people from over 50 churches across the United States.The results were enthusiastic and convincing. Here are some testimonies:

-
Awesome! More, more, more! This study was easy to facilitate and encouraged me to further study on a personal level. – P. D.

This is an excellent course for the mature believer and the spiritual “infant” alike. I went into it thinking it might be a little too elementary for me. It is very elementary, and yet profound. I loved the course and plan to use it in my own discipleship ministries. – J. N.
-
I am over 50 years old and have been a Christian all my life. As a layperson, I have been delighted by the depth this class has taken me to. It’s incredible in its depth, and ability to take even mature Christians to the next level of devotion and commitment. – J. H.
The subject is compelling, the product is groundbreaking, and the results are confirmed. All that remains is to make it available to the world in an acceptable and affordable format. Your contributions will help make that possible.
I was once a new Christian, and for years had to slog my way through mountains of hard-to-understand information before I was able to see the forest for the trees. But after 12 years of higher education, forty years of ministry and thousands of hours of research and development to create The Brave New Discipleship System, I have done much of the hard work for others, making this one of the most valuable and effective Bible teaching tools available.
This is not talking-head instruction. Rather, it includes eye-popping pictures, creative visuals, graphics and effective use of on-screen text, with riveting teaching that makes a 25-minute lesson seem like 10 minutes! It uses the latest in educational methodology to drive home truth in a groundbreaking way, and reaches the heart as well as the head. See samples in this 12-minute video.
Because the material has already been created and field-tested, risk is modest. The money is being raised simply to create the Internet presence necessary to allow those interested to know about it, and to make it affordable for an average person, as well as to make it available worldwide.
If you have a heart for discipleship, for life transformation in Christ, for new believers being established, and growing Christians being strengthened in the their faith, then jump in to help. You'll notice some of the perks we are offering for your participation.
