ARMA Courses is a video classroom for Christians who have opened the Bible and felt lost before the first chapter ended. Manny Arango and Aaron Ross built it so people can learn Scripture at their own pace, in a way its site calls simple, affordable, and entertaining.^1
The library now holds 55+ courses covering books of the Bible, theology, and cultural topics such as homosexuality, women in ministry, and leadership.^1 A free Intro to the Bible course offers a first step before subscribing. Subscribers unlock the full catalog plus workbooks, quizzes, a private community, subscriber challenges, live calls, and a new course each month, along with a Bible reading plan with daily videos.^1 The website is the main classroom, and the iOS app keeps your videos in one place, saves favorite videos for later, and sends push notifications with news and updates.^3 Access is subscription-based, with church pricing for pastors and church teams.^1
Manny and Aaron launched ARMA to provide theology content that the average Christian can trust and enjoy.^4 Manny graduated from Gordon College with a degree in Biblical and Theological Studies and earned his master's degree from Southeastern University.^4 Aaron completed graduate work in theology and divinity and works to make dense ideas usable.^4 Manny traces his own love of Scripture to the church where he was saved at 11: "I got saved at a church that used biblical literacy as a massive tool for discipleship."^5 Manny and Tia Arango also pastor The Garden in Houston, which describes founding ARMA as a platform committed to helping Christians learn the Bible.^6
Subscribers describe the change plainly. Jesse S. writes: "Before ARMA I felt a little on my own anytime I cracked open the Bible. ARMA has given me the confidence to know that what I'm communicating to my family is Biblical truth."^1 Renee H. writes: "Thank you for how you explain the Bible. I've been walking with the Lord for many, many years, BUT, I've never heard the word broken down like this."^1
