About Us
A Bible study community in Sandton, Johannesburg, built one Wednesday at a time since 2014.
Johannesburg Bible Study Church is a Bible study and welcoming Christian community in Sandton, Johannesburg. We are committed to building a community where people grow in faith, serve one another, and extend God's love to the wider Johannesburg area.
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, our reliable guide for faith and daily life.
We believe in a God who loves all people unconditionally and invites everyone into relationship with Him.
We believe the church is a community where people grow together, support one another, and serve those around them.
We believe salvation through Jesus Christ is available to all who turn to Him in faith and sincerity.
We believe our faith calls us to serve our neighbours and community with practical love and generosity.
We believe in a future of hope and purpose, guided by God's plan and promises for every life.
To be a welcoming Bible study community in Sandton, Johannesburg where people grow in their relationship with God, serve one another and the local community, and discover their purpose through spiritual education, fellowship, and practical service.
Through our Wednesday online Bible study, free community classes, and youth programs, we aim to share God's love in practical ways that bless the people of Sandton and greater Johannesburg.
The Team
A small team. Most of what happens on a Wednesday evening is two people, a passage, and a Google Meet full of people asking honest questions. If you call the number on the contact page, you will probably end up talking to one of them.
Bible Study Lead
Leads most of our Wednesday Bible study evenings and the Exodus series. Twenty years of working with community groups across Johannesburg, and a habit of reading the passage out loud three times before anyone says a word.
First language English. Happy to slow down for second-language speakers.
Korean Class & Community
Runs the Sunday Korean class in Parkmore and the youth side of UseCan. Bilingual in English and Korean, which is the reason the Korean class exists in the first place — somebody asked her to teach a friend one Sunday, and the rest of the room wanted in.
Also coordinates the open days and the in-person Sandton evenings.
Our Story
2014
The first Bible study was a small group meeting in a kitchen in Parkmore. There was no website, no name, no plan to keep going past the first month. They kept going.
2017
The Bible study moved to a video call so people in Randburg, Roodepoort, and Midrand could join without driving. The room doubled in a year.
2019
A small Sunday afternoon class for anyone curious about Korean. Word of mouth did the rest. We are still free.
2021
A youth initiative focused on young people in Sandton and greater Johannesburg. Leadership, service, and the kind of friendships that get a young adult through their first year in the city.
2026
Ten years on, the Bible study has a website, a Google Meet link that gets passed around every Wednesday morning, and a community that includes people in Sandton, Cape Town, London, and Sydney. The kitchen table is still in Parkmore.
Everyone belongs here
Grounded in Scripture
Practical, genuine care
Always learning together
