Our VISION:

Every community around the world transformed through the study of God's Word.

Our MISSION:

Encourage and equip believers to begin and multiply Bible study groups in their communities.

NBS2GO Statement of Faith

NBS2GO believes that the Bible is the Word of God and that it is powerful in changing lives, when men and women are conformed by the clear claims of Christ.

These truths form the foundation of what we believe. The genuine Christian life, as practiced and taught by NBS2GO, is always in agreement with these basic, yet profound, realities. We believe:

The Bible, as originally given by God, is divinely inspired, infallible, entirely trustworthy, and the supreme authority in all matters of faith and practice.

There is one God, eternally existent in three persons-Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ was fully God, yet fully man, born of a virgin, and lived a sinless life, performing many miracles.

We acknowledge His substitutionary death, resurrection, ascension and individual mediation for us, and eagerly await His personal return in power and glory.

Man is sinful and separated from God, and a reunion, called salvation, is possible only by faith in Jesus Christ, apart from works, through the regeneration of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit indwells the believer and enables us to live a holy life and to witness and work for the Lord Jesus Christ.

All true believers are united by the Holy Spirit as the church, the Body of Christ.

Everyone will be resurrected-the saved to everlasting life, the unsaved to everlasting torment.

Debbie McGoldrick, Founder

Debbie’s heart for taking the Word of God to her neighbors began at an early age. Her love for evangelism eventually led her to teach and disciple friends in high school and college, where her passion for spiritual multiplication began.

In 1976, Debbie and her husband Mark began serving with Cru®. Since 1989, Debbie has been planting and watering seeds of love and truth in the hearts of her neighbors by leading a neighborhood Bible study group. Through the years Debbie has mentored and challenged other women to create neighborhood Bible study groups where women can begin and grow in a relationship with Christ. Now more than 200 Bible study groups exist. The bushels of fruit – the process of multiplication continues as hundreds of women are growing in their faith, lives and families are changing, and neighborhoods are being transformed into caring communities. In 2017, with joy, she witnessed members of her Bible study group taking the lead as facilitators, enabling her to focus on US and global connections with NBS2GO.

Debbie and her husband give leadership to Cru City Atlanta. Debbie has served as a national leader within Cru, is the founder of NBS2GO, and teaches and speaks worldwide on loving God, His Word, and neighbors. Blessed to be married to Mark for more than half her life, she is the mother of two married children and now Dee Dee to her grandchildren, Maddox and Joshua.

Debbie loves God’s promise in Isaiah 55:11 and she continually claims it for His Word planted through Neighbor Bible Studies:

“I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all that I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it,” Isaiah 55:11.
Rebecca Davie, Web Design Team & Writer

Rebecca is a former educator and was an Editor for an online magazine before joining NBS2GO at its inception. She led her first Bible study group in 2012. Rebecca took a short leadership break as her family moved away from the city and into the quiet of rolling fields and running waters.

She began a new Bible study group, where one member stated, “It finally feels like a neighborhood!" An emphatic example of the power of God and potential of neighbor Bible studies. God gives good gifts!

"Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful" Hebrews 10:23 NIV.

Rebecca wrote to help gain awareness and sponsorships for Hands of Love USA and their precious orphans in Uganda with a revision of their website in 2017. She then rejoined the NBS2GO team.

Rebecca lives on the Etowah River with her husband, teen son, and a rescued dog that shadows her every move. Any spare time is filled with turning pages - reading or writing. She longs for days when their oldest son comes home from college and the family can hike - including Ranger the dog, who has his own backpack. Her favorite verse:

“He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy” Job 8:21 NIV.
Sherri Edwards, Professional Outreach & Development

Sherri believes that the only thing better than delving into God's Word is delving in with a few others! Through studying God's Word, Sherri discovered God's heart for us all. She longs that others would know their worth, value, and significance comes from being loved by God.

"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made" Psalms 139:14 NIV.

Sherri remembers the nervous jitters and excitement of stepping out in faith and starting her first lunchtime Bible study group with her co-workers in 2007. Seeds were sown and lives were changed by His Word and His Spirit. Coming to NBS2GO after 13 years of working as a leader in the professional world, Sherri has a heart for seeing God open doors for Christ-centered conversations not only with the neighbors we live near but the neighbors we work with as well.

Sherri joined Cru staff in 2017. In her spare time, she enjoys swimming, biking, and running with her favorite little canine running buddy, Snickers.

"He holds success in store for the upright, He is a shield to those whose walk is blameless" Proverbs 2:7 NIV.
Caitlyn Joiner, Moms Connector

With two young daughters at home, Caitlyn began to wonder what the Lord had in store for her.

How could God continue to use her even during the toddler years?

Caitlyn and her husband, Chris, had been serving in high school ministry with Cru for nine years. In the fall of 2018, Caitlyn sensed the Lord leading her to transition to NBS2GO. Being a mom was a huge part of this decision. Caitlyn's capacity for ministry on campus changed, but not her heart.

Caitlyn figured it out, and you can too! She desires to see women flourish in their sphere of influence, especially motherhood. Ministry does not stop when you become a mom, it increases your ability to relate to another group of people. Whether it's running into someone at the grocery store, in carpool line, at the park, or at the gym, we can be intentional. We all know motherhood can be lonely. God always gives opportunity when we ask Him for it.

Caitlyn is passionate about seeing others right where they are and initiating meaningful conversations that prayerfully lead to Jesus. She and her husband Chris are currently leading the East Atlanta Community Group through Passion City Church- a Bible study for those in their neighborhood. They have been married for 11 years and have two girls, Evie (6) and Nora (3).

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" Romans 10:17 KJV.
Pam McCune, Partnership Specialist

As a wife, mother, author, speaker, and recovering perfectionist, Pam knows what it is to balance the pressures of family life, ministry/work and a relationship with God. Through the power of God’s Word, friendships with women and chocolate, she has learned to rest in God's everlasting arms and help guide others to that same peace.

Experiencing first-hand how God’s Word changed her life, Pam has committed her adulthood to helping others discover a deeper relationship with God through His Word. Her years as a women’s ministry director, Bible teacher, small group discipleship leader and Christian communicator have led her to NBS2GO.

Pam has learned in over 40 years of running toward God that He can use anyone, especially a very successful failure, who is willing to share the life-changing power of God’s Word with others.

"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me" 2 Corinthians 12: 9-10 NIV.

The Pineywoods of East Texas has been home to Pam and her husband, Jerry. This is where they raised their daughter and son, and currently live with their storm-stressed Maltese, Beau.
Joan Parsons, Communications Director & Writer

In 1990, Joan joined Cru staff. In 2007, though she felt like a big chicken, Joan knew that she wanted to step out in faith and begin a neighborhood Bible study group. With her palms sweating, she handed out flyers and prayed. Three women came, including herself and her co-leader. God showed up then and He shows up now…with quite a few more than three.

It is more than increased numbers for which she is grateful - it is that her neighbors know there is a safe place to come with their questions about God. She desires to provide an environment where women can begin or deepen their walk with Christ through studying God’s Word, build friendships with one another, and influence their families for Christ. Joan is a recent widow and mother to three boys and a girl.

“Without faith it is impossible to please God” Hebrews 11:6 NIV.
Caroline Schuler, Translation Coordinator & Web Admin

Caroline is a student at Moody Bible Institute, in the process of earning her Bachelor’s degree in Ministry Leadership. As part of her passion for global missions, God led her to become fluent in Spanish and serve as a Spanish interpreter with Medical Missions in Guatemala for two summers.

She joined Cru staff part-time in 2016. Caroline is a member of her mother’s neighborhood Bible study group, loves spending time with her older brother and sister, and is a proud aunt of two nieces. Caroline enjoys experiencing people coming to faith in Jesus Christ.

“For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago” Ephesians 2:10.
Linda Shaffer, Global Connector

Linda believes that God’s Word holds the answers to all our needs. She joined Cru staff in 1985 and after living overseas for 19 years, she returned to the United States with a desire to create a caring community of neighbors by hosting a Bible study.

For several years, she thought of all kinds of reasons why it wasn’t the right time. Soon after, a friend challenged her by asking, “Hey, when are you going to start that Bible study you keep talking about?” Linda stepped out in faith and began. It’s been exciting for her to see women from five different countries gather to study the Word of God, pray for and serve one another. Linda loves spending time with her husband Walter, their four grown children, and one teenaged son. She also enjoys tennis and snorkeling.

“Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart” Psalms 37:4 ESV.
