Echo Sessions

Echo Sessions Weekly Bible Study

A Weekly Online Gathering for Serious Students of the Word
Hosted by Pastor Rich Saunders Jr. | Johannesburg, South Africa & Surrounding Areas Every Wednesday | 7:00PM SAST | Online

What Is Echo Session?
Echo Session is a weekly virtual Bible study built for the people of Johannesburg and surrounding areas who are genuinely hungry for the Word of God. No gimmicks. No games. No performance. Just a community of committed believers coming together every Wednesday evening to open their Bibles and go deep into Scripture, guided, grounded, and led by the Holy Spirit.
The name says it all. When God speaks, His Word echoes. It doesn't just pass through you, it stays. It reverberates in your home, your relationships, your mind, and your spirit long after the session ends. That is what we are building here. A space where the Word of God is taken seriously, studied carefully, and applied practically to everyday life in Mzansi.
Whether you are in Soweto, Sandton, Tembisa, Midrand, Roodepoort, the East Rand, or anywhere in between, if you have a device and a hunger for truth, this is your seat at the table.

What to Expect Each Wednesday
Echo Session follows a simple, consistent flow so that every member knows what they are walking into:
1. Opening and Prayer We center ourselves and invite the presence of God before we open the Word. No rushing, no skipping. We acknowledge who this is all about.
2. Scripture Reading We read the passage together as a group. Everyone is encouraged to have their Bible open, physical or digital. We want you in the Word, not just listening to someone else talk about it.
3. Guided Study and Teaching Pastor Rich Saunders Jr. leads the group through a structured, verse-by-verse breakdown of the passage. Context, meaning, application. We cover it thoroughly. This is not a motivational talk. This is Bible study.
4. Group Discussion and Questions This is where the session comes alive. Members are encouraged to ask questions, share insights, and engage with the text. Iron sharpens iron and your contribution matters.
5. Closing Prayer and Reflection We close out by anchoring what we have studied and carrying it into the rest of the week.
