Sign up for this Thursday’s (April 23rd) Guerrilla Bible Study “No one is an accident: We belong to God (Psalm 139 and other texts) here.
Discipleship and Jesus-movement building through Bible Studies
12-1pm PST on Thursdays, April 30, May 7, 14, 21, 28, June 4
There’s a Jesus-movement underway in these uncertain times that grows as each of us learns to bear witness- sharing liberating messages we discover and pass on with the Spirit’s help.
Journeying alongside someone new to Christian faith is a joy and challenge. Where to begin? In this webinar course we will explore practical ways to help not-yet-believing people explore and experience God’s radical message of transforming love in Jesus. We will follow Jesus together through Scripture, identifying core teachings that help us grow into an understanding and practice of Christian faith that will appeal to people and bring personal and social change.
Participants will learn to:
- Draw from Scripture to share core teachings regarding following Jesus with people new to Christian faith in ways that mobilize them as active witnesses.
- Develop an incremental disciple-making approach that uses Scripture to help a person grow beginning from wherever they are in their faith journey into greater maturity.
- Facilitate the discovery of a life-changing message using non-religious language through short, conversational Bible studies.
- Think strategically about multiplying active carriers of liberating news (the Gospel).
