Written to a kind of church that I don't prefer, but with an idea that is so simple and authentic that I think it's revolutionary.
Principles and methods for effectively launching a seeker small group. Best-selling author and evangelism expert Lee Strobel describes seeker small groups as “One of the most powerful and effective tools in evangelism.” A seeker small group is facilitated by a Christian leader, but group members are seekers—non-Christians investigating Christianity. The group provides a safe context for seekers and believers to ask questions and dialogue about faith. This highly transferable model can show more be implemented by all kinds of ministries with a wide range of evangelistic styles and strategies. As believers complete evangelism courses such as Becoming a Contagious Christian, they are motivated to reach out to others but often feel they lack opportunities to interact with non-Christians. Seeker Small Groups is the missing evangelism tool churches need to fill the gap between evangelism training and real-life opportunities for engaging seekers in life-changing spiritual discussions. The book presents a detailed, step-by-step process for launching seeker small groups strategy in a wide variety of settings. The groups are for seekers whether or not they are attending church. Numerous stories and illustrations provide inspiration and encouragement so readers are not only equipped but also motivated to launch their own seeker groups. show less
The book provides insights & coaching to help you lead interactive sessions that will engage participants in thoughtful & personally rewarding dialogue about the life changing truths of Christianity.
Designed to be a study guide for group discussion on the topic of evil and suffering for Christians, this little book is part of a series, "Tough Questions" that every Christian should read and ponder for himself. Many secular quotations accompany the text to show the current atheist and rationalist view of these questions.
