STEPS ALONG THE PATHWAY TO THE SOUL
We want to equip and support YOU in making disciples of Jesus Christ.
We have developed the STEPS course to embody a model of evangelism and discipleship that has been used successfully for nearly 30 years in different cultures all over the world.
Don’t do this alone. Invite someone to join you.
The 9 lessons in STEPS were designed to be facilitated as a weekly practicum that encourages interaction with the material and 2-3 fellow learners. Each step should take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours to complete on a weekly basis, culminating on the final week with you and your team stepping out to engage in personal, Spirit-led conversations with lost people about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
INTERCESSION
STEPS begins with a call for Christians to recognize their role as intercessors before they are ever evangelists. The Holy Spirit is convicting and pursuing the lost people in our lives and we can join this preparing work as we pray for them and love them. True intercession such as this will compel us to evangelism.
EVANGELISM
STEPS will equip you to share the gospel by engaging in dialogues that are shaped by the convicting work of the Holy Spirit. If the world is being convicted of sin, righteousness, and judgment, as Jesus says, then they will have much to say and we will thus have much to listen to. Then we can invite them to see Jesus as the only answer to their conviction.
DISCIPLESHIP
STEPS continues beyond a simple profession of faith. We are convinced that new believers, like newborn babies, require very intentional and basic nourishment. And so the job of an intercessor carries us into evangelism and results in lasting discipleship relationships. We are not simply called to bring people to Jesus, but to call others to follow Jesus with us.
