Description
Large rallies and church meetings aren't the only way to preach the gospel. It can also be done very effectively one-to-one or in small groups.Simply Christianity is designed for just this sort of ministry. It is a five-part course based on the Gospel of Luke. The goal is to surprise and challenge ordinary non-Christian people (whether 'churched' or 'unchurched') with the unique story of Jesus Christ, as told by Luke. Over the five sessions, guests read right through Luke, tracing its main themes. In rough outline, the five sessions are as follows:
- Jesus, Now and Then
  An introductory session clarifying that Christianity is really about responding to Jesus Christ (rather than being just about ethics or ritual), and that we can find out about Jesus reliably by reading the Gospel record of his life.
- In the Presence of Greatness (Luke 1-9)
  We often think of Jesus as meek and mild, but in Luke 1-9 we see his awesome power and authority to speak on God's behalf, to overcome evil, to heal and forgive and call people to follow him. He is, in other words, the Christ-God's mighty worldwide ruler.
- Search and Rescue (Luke 10-19)
  It turns out that this mighty Messiah has not come to conquer with his power, but to seek out the lost and save them.
- Jesus' Death (Luke 20-23)
  As Jesus "drinks the cup" of God's judgement on the cross, his rescue mission reaches a climax. Through his death, access to God is opened up.
- Jesus, Here and Now (Luke 24)
  This concluding session emphasizes Jesus' resurrection as the Christ, who now rules the world, and calls on people everywhere to repent and seek forgiveness.
This Guest's Manual contains the session outlines and 'Extra Information' for each session, as well as the entire Gospel of Luke for easy reference.
The Leader's Manual contains an introduction to the course, its rationale and methodology, plus detailed notes and scripts for conducting the course. It also includes the entire Gospel of Luke for easy reference. To evaluate the course, this would be the resource to buy.
