Ses
sion 1 – The What
A look at what evangelism is about. There is a humorous questionnaire on evangelism, followed by a “write your own evangelism manifesto” and bible study.
Session 2 – The Why and the Why not
Why do we do Evangelism? and why quite often don’t we? We will look at the Great Commission – God’s command to witness, as well as the reasons why we don’t witness or do evangelism – fear of looking a fool, don’t know what to say or how to do it, etc.
Session 3 – Good News?
What is the Gospel? How can we explain the Gospel in a way that is not patronizing but is relevant and interesting? In this session we will look at the ‘Three minute Gospel’. Readers will write the Gospel in their own words in such a way that they could explain it to a friend in three minutes.
Session 4 – Consistently inconsistent
How does your lifestyle affect your witness? We will look at how what you do often says more about you than the things that you say. Do we live consistent lives?
Session 5 – On your knees…
How does praying help us? Over the next two sessions we will look at the value of praying for their friends and themselves and the value of learning scripture for our own sakes and to help us as we talk to others.
Session 6 – …and in the Word
The follow on to Session 5.
Session 7 – I Say, I Say
Testimonies – what should be in them, what shouldn’t? What is their use? Readers will prepare a short testimony about themselves, how they came to know God and what he has done for them. This will show readers that God’s hand is upon their lives, that God will do different things for each of them and that their testimony, whether it is simple or ‘glamorous,’ is valuable and can be used as a great encouragement and help to others.
Session 8 – I’m sorry, I haven’t a clue
Apologetics – what are they? Why should we have answers? Readers will think of a question about Christianity they would like answered or one that maybe they have been asked.
Session 9 – Your starter for 10
Continuation of Session 8.
Session 10 – Counting the cost
How do you lead someone to Christ? What do you say? The cost of following Jesus is something that each person wishing to follow him must consider.
