To everyone:

This is a question I have been pondering: if a church does not offer good studies in the Scriptures and doctrine (which may very well be due to lack of interest from the laity)--what do you think about a member's turning to a study sponsored by a group such as Community Bible Study or Bible Study Fellowship as an alternative?

I guess the problem I have with some of these is that in a officially nondenominational study, it can be hard to address doctrine--but can this be offset by some means?
