WHO DO YOU KNOW THAT ISN’T SAVED?

WHERE WILL THEY GO IF THEY DIE WITHOUT CHRIST?

 

Do you feel like you don’t have the courage to share Christ? Maybe you are just having a hard time sharing the gospel because you feel that you don’t know enough. You feel like you need to be an expert in apologetics before you can share your faith. Maybe you are afraid someone will ask you a question that you won’t have the answer too! Maybe you are just fearful of how people will act or respond when you tell them about Christ. Maybe you have been a Christian for many years and have never shared your faith. Well this is the course for you!

 

Based on the award-winning TV series "The Way of the Master" by Kirk Cameron and Ray Comfort, the  Basic Training Course is specially formatted to train believers in a group setting to simply and confidently share the gospel with family, friends and strangers. This course is open to any believing Christian…men, women, and teens. Bring a spouse, family member or friend.

This  course will teach you to overcome you fears by using proven, powerfully effective way to make the gospel make sense. You will not be at a loss for words. You do not need to be an expert in apologetics. Instead, you will learn the forgotten biblical principle of bypassing the intellect (the place of argument) and speaking directly to the conscience (the place of the knowledge of right and wrong) – the way Jesus did.

Kirk and Ray (on DVD) will show you, through fascinating on-the-street- conversations how to witness. Weekly homework assignments will gradually coax, you, step-by-step, out of your comfort zone to reach your loved ones for Christ. You will be inspired and motivated as you learn, watch, and then do. Like countless others who have taken this course, you will be amazed at how using this biblical method will transform your life – and the lives of others. This will be the eighth year of teaching The Way of the Master Course.

Click on the link above to go to the Online 

Course. This web page is designed for those 

who are already taking the Way of the 

Master Course or who have and need a 

refresher course. We recommend using 

this link if you miss a class, need 

missing handouts or you want to 

refresh yourself with the teaching. 

It is recommended that if you are currently 

taking the Way of the Master 

Course that you only watch course lessons 

that you have missed and don't go 

ahead of your current lesson. Although this 

course can be used for 

individual study, it is ideally suited for use 

in small and large groups 

Evangelism can seem fearful and 

intimidating, and a group setting can 

provide the needed encouragement and 

accountability.
