2. Neighborhood Preparedness Outreach Training: Bellevue, WA, September 15, 9–2

Preparing for potential disasters is a great way to connect with neighbors and begin spiritual conversations.

This training integrates:

• the WA state Map Your Neighborhood program (to guide neighbors in preparing together for potential disasters)
• with Q-Place guidance in gathering people with different beliefs for spiritual discussion around the Bible.

 

BACKGROUND

We live at a pivotal moment in His-story:

• The global Church is stronger, and growing faster, than ever before.
• Through movements, nations are being discipled faster than ever before.
• Some generation will embrace the potential of movements to reach every people.
• We could become that generation!

Yet the majority of believers are disconnected from this reality. Most of us:

• aren’t aware of the unprecedented movements unfolding in our day, and
• aren’t familiar with biblical principles for pursuing God for movements.

Seeking God for movements involves a few basic paradigm shifts:

• from seeking to grow our own church
  to training our members to disciple all of their relational networks.
  (including family, friends, co-workers and neighbors)

• from telling people what the Bible says
  to guiding people to hear God speak to them directly through His Word.

• from giving people information
  to training them to obey all Jesus’ commands.

A growing number of churches, big and small, are leading the way in this 21st Century return to New Testament models, including:

• Megachurch Family Bible Church in FL
• a small Mandarin church in CA
• Megachurch Sugar Creek Baptist in TX

The events above can help and your church join this paradigm shift to greater fruitfulness.
