In a world where relationships are often portrayed through distorted media images, this series invites teenagers to explore love, friendship, and God’s design for lasting happiness. With warmth, humor, and honesty, each session tackles real-life challenges—from navigating attraction and peer pressure to understanding the beauty and boundaries of God’s gift of relationships. Drawing from biblical wisdom and practical experience, the talks encourage young people to grow in maturity, respect, and spiritual awareness as they prepare for their own “happily ever after.”

In Scripture, wells are more than places to draw water—they are meeting places, moments of decision, and turning points in God’s unfolding purpose. This six-part series, delivered in 1999, journeys through encounters at the well that reveal God’s care, His covenant, and His call to relationship. From the tender love stories of the patriarchs to the profound spiritual truths shared by Jesus himself, each study explores how these moments speak to our lives today. As we meet each woman at the well, we are invited to consider our own meeting place with the Lord and how it shapes our walk with him.

The hope of the Kingdom of God has inspired believers for centuries, promising a time when God’s purpose will be fully revealed and His glory will fill the earth. In this series, Brother Barry van Heerden explores the rich scriptural visions of the Kingdom—its King, its land, its law, and its people—and invites us to imagine life in that glorious age. These classes consider both the practical realities and the spiritual character of the millennial reign, drawing from the promises made to Abraham, the visions of the prophets, and the teachings of Jesus Christ. Together, they paint a vivid picture of God’s plan to bring the nations into harmony with His will and to cover the earth with His glory.

In this memorable 1995 Bible School series, Brother Barry Van Heerden invites listeners on a journey through Scripture’s gardens — sacred spaces where God’s purpose, love, and redemption are revealed. Each class draws rich parallels between biblical events and the believer’s own walk of faith, weaving together historical insight, spiritual reflection, and heartfelt exhortation. From the first paradise to the empty tomb, these lessons explore how God’s presence transforms places of trial into scenes of hope, beauty, and eternal promise.

In this deeply moving 1993 series, Brother Barry van Heerden explores the rich biblical imagery of gardens as they appear in God’s plan of redemption. From Eden’s perfection to Gethsemane’s anguish, from the intimacy of the Song of Solomon to the joy of resurrection morning, each class invites us to see God’s work of restoration unfolding through His Son, Jesus Christ. With warmth, insight, and reverence, the series draws us into the Scriptures to discover peace, beauty, and love at the heart of God’s purpose.

In this deeply insightful 1991 series, Brother Barry van Heerden explores the fascinating and often mysterious subject of angels as revealed in Scripture. Through six richly layered studies, he guides listeners from the ancient pages of the Old and New Testaments into a deeper understanding of God’s messengers—both mortal and immortal—and their role in His purpose. With warmth, clarity, and reverence, the series unfolds the connection between angels, Christ, and the believer’s walk of faith, revealing how this study ultimately points to the glory of God and the hope of His coming Kingdom.
