Coaches and trainers choose studies from a User's Menu. Apprentice shepherds and church planters learn from these studies, on-the-job. All of the studies on this site were revised in Summer of 2017. Improvements include these:

1. ​Nicer images, though not suitable for all culture groups.
2. No folded-page formatting, since many users found this frustrating.
3. Clear theme verses, with teaching, learning and outcome objectives.
4. Material in two sections: Basic and Advanced, for better time management.
5. Seven on-line, searchable indexes to help find appropriate studies.
6. Bible stories illustrate each study's theme.​
7. ​Clumsy English syntax smoothed up a bit.​​
8. Children's teacher studies include drama scripts and colouring pictures.
9. Many studies include links to supplementary materials.
