In this session, we will discover some very practical tools to use in helping us fulfill the Great Commission, and become a modern-day disciple-maker in our everyday lives. Jesus still wants us to be His witnesses wherever we go to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8). We will learn how the entire body of Christ can learn to share the Gospel in a very simple manner, and turn a normal conversation into a Gospel conversation, even if you've had no experience with doing so before! It is so simple and practical that we have hundreds of folks finding great success with it across the nation already! Come and get equipped to share the Gospel in your community and make disciples for Jesus Christ!
