Welcome to Evangelism Techniques for Today.
Our group will meet every week between February 1st and April 18th.
During the semester we will go through an in-depth class on Evangelism Techniques for Today’s Christian. This will include Soul Winning – How to store up your treasures in Heaven, Evangelism & Discipleship – How they go hand in hand, Community & Public Witnessing Techniques and finally Relational or Relationship Evangelism Techniques. This will include an interactive class, a free online course (under development), Evangelical Scripts & Methods, Visual Aids, Evangelical Scriptures to Memorize & Reference and also a DVD series by Bill Hybels called “Just Walk Across the Room” which encourages and equips believers to routinely initiate spiritual conversations with those who don’t know Christ. We will follow up this class with a wrap up session to discuss what we have learned, start our mission, set some goals and plan on an evangelical outing & a group play date. It will be fun and rewarding. Let’s win some souls for Christ!
