Synopsis
The participant's guide is designed to help you get the most out of the Becoming a Contagious Christian course. It provides an easy-to-use, hands-on means of identifying and developing an evangelism style that's effective at leading unbelievers toward Christ. Becoming a Contagious Christian is a proven course designed to equip believers for effective evangelism in today's world. It avoids stereotyped approaches that feel intimidating to many Christians. Instead, it shows ordinary believers how they can share the Gospel in a natural and powerful way while being the person God made them to be. Each session's exercises, discussions, self-assessments, and video vignettes give step-by-step guidance to help participants become effective communicators for Christ to those around them. There's even a section on everyday answers that will help believers respond to difficult questions regarding Christianity. Over 800,000 people have participated in Becoming a Contagious Christian training in the last eight years.
