Campus

Welcome to
Campus

Welcome to Campus! If you are at UNSW, we are here to serve you. Every week of Term, we have students, staff and post-graduates from every faculty meeting to read the Bible – both at main campus and at Art and Design. Campus Bible Study exists for those who know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, and those open to discovering what His death and resurrection means for them. So whoever you are, join us to meet others, and grow in knowing God and learning to live joyfully in His service.

The Bible Talks

Engage with God’s life-giving, life-changing word through these interactive talks designed to fit into the UNSW timetable. The same talk is repeated three times each week, followed by afternoon tea if you’re able to stick around.

No prior knowledge required, whether it’s your first time opening the Bible or you’ve grown up reading it. Wherever you are at, we want to encourage, challenge and stretch you!

Bible Study Groups

Join with a small group of students from your faculty each week for an hour to share life, learn from the Bible and pray together. Bible study groups are a great way to connect with others at uni, while working out how to read the Bible for yourself, discover who God is and what it means to live for Him.

We meet under the sundial in the Quadrangle, then sit at tables, on the grass, or in an empty room nearby.

CORE Theology

If God has made the world and the Bible tells us how we are to live in the world, theology is all about knowing God truly and learning to view the world with His eyes.

CORE Theology is a fun and engaging weekly seminar that won’t let you sit back with indifference. It’s a great place to stretch you in your thinking and firm-up your foundation to live rightly in service of God and others!

CORE Training

Because the Christian life is about service, CORE Training is a series of practical small group training courses. They will equip you to know and share what you believe, to read the Bible on your own and with others, to write and lead Bible studies, and much more!

Make the most of your university years to be equipped to serve others well, both now and into the future!

Prayerfully proclaiming the crucified Christ as Lord of all,
we evangelise, teach, train and send each other
as God’s servants into all the world.

Why join CBS?

Hear from some students about the opportunities that are available for evangelism, teaching, training, and sending with Campus Bible Study.

GROWTH
GROUPS

Join with a small group of students from your faculty for 1.5 hours each week to share life, learn from the Bible and pray together. Campus Growth Groups are a great way to connect with others at Uni, while working out how to read the Bible for yourself and discover who God is and how to live for Him.

We meet under the sundial in the Quadrangle, then sit at tables, on the grass (if the sun is shining) or in an empty room nearby.

ART & DESIGN

If you want to meet Christians, learn about the salvation Jesus offers, and how to read the Bible for yourself, we have a few Bible Study groups and pairs or triplets of students meeting to read and pray together. Let us know if you’re at the Art & Design campus in Paddington and we would love to connect with you!

We’d also encourage you to get involved with the teaching and training at main campus wherever you can.

BIBLE
TRIPLET

Who is Jesus? How can we know? What does it mean to be a ‘Christian’? Why would I want to do that?

Bible Triplets are all about two (I know, not technically a triplet!) or three students meeting up each week to read the Bible and ask big questions together. 

If you have questions or aren’t sure where to start with reading the Bible, get in touch and we would love to help you!

STAFF & POST-
GRADS

Whether lecturing, researching, doing post-doc work or are part of the huge team of support staff, join with others to read the Bible and pray or explore how the claims of the Bible stand in the world of academia. 

We have a few groups meeting around the Campus, and a couple of pastoral staff with academic backgrounds. Get in touch to join a group, ask questions or meet with someone to read the Bible.

He is super keen to help everyone at uni, particularly postgrads and academics, find true meaning and life in Jesus. He loves spending time with his family, outdoor activities, and engaging in thought provoking conversations.
