NWC Rural Ministry Webinar – Thriving in Relational Ministry
In this webinar we consider factors vital to rural evangelism. Time was taken to explore areas like living as witnesses in everyday encounters, circles of relationships, necessary culture shifts within churches, the role of prayer, a learning/curious posture with others and the strategic use of questions.
We also introduced the Journey Toward Jesus scale that provides insights into the common steps involved in a person’s journey to recognizing who Christ is and the importance of placing one’s trust in Christ as their Savior. In summary, this webinar reinforces the practices of fostering authentic relationships and taking small steps that can lead to gospel conversations with others.
