The Barrier: Lack of Understanding

can’t hear the gospel in their
heart language.

We are committed to
effective follow-up


• Live JESUS film showings are done in cooperation with nearby local churches whenever possible.
• Trained counselors talk with interested viewers
immediately after each showing.
• Addresses are collected for personal home visits.
• NewLife groups are established to help new believers study the Scriptures.
• Denominational partners appoint elders
to form new churches.
• Television and video viewers are followed up through mail correspondence centers.

Breaking The Barrier:
Lack of Training and Materials


One of the biggest barriers to follow-up and
discipleship is the lack of training for pastors,
Christian workers, and laity in the church.

• Many do not understand how to live in the
power of the Holy Spirit and are not
equipped to lead others to Christ.
• Others need help establishing NewLife groups
which will lead to new churches.
• In many language groups, no discipleship
or follow-up materials exist
.
• We will be part of the team that will create and distribute these needed materials around the world.
