For decades, Sabbath School Study Hour has been a trusted source of in-depth Bible teaching for viewers around the world. Regularly presented by Pastor Doug Batchelor, the weekly program has guided countless individuals through Scripture with clarity, balance, and practical application.
Now, Amazing Facts International is debuting a new name for this beloved broadcast: Studying the Word. The change reflects a desire to communicate the heart of the program more clearly to a wider audience—inviting viewers to open the Bible and explore its truths in a meaningful, accessible way.
Importantly, each episode will continue to follow the weekly Sabbath School lesson. Viewers can expect the same verse-by-verse teaching, thoughtful insights, practical application for daily life, and Christ-centered focus that have defined the program for years.
The focus has always been on helping people understand the Bible—this name simply makes that focus clearer.
As Amazing Facts continues to expand its digital outreach, Studying the Word is positioned to connect with both longtime viewers and new seekers wanting clear, Bible-based answers. The updated name is especially helpful for those unfamiliar with the term “Sabbath School,” making the program more inviting to a global audience.
Whether you’ve been studying along for years or are just discovering the program, Studying the Word is designed to help you understand and live by the Word of God.
