Discipleship Course Outline

The discipleship course outline begins with a video presentation, ^©Behind The Scenes that was produced as an integral part of the series, designed as a way of presenting the message of the Gospel and the two spiritual kingdoms that surround us in an animated graphic format that is easy to follow.

• Behind The Scenes and Discipleship Course Introduction
• Leading a person to understand their present condition.
• What the Bible says about how to get into God’s kingdom.
• That Jesus is the bridge to life.
• It then leads a person to the choice to receive Jesus Christ as their Saviour.

^©Behind The Scenes has demonstrated its effectiveness already as a tool for evangelism. Once people become believers, they can be soundly established in their faith through ^©Growing Deep and Strong.

The ^©Growing Deep and Strong Series is an intentional discipleship path of four modules for new and maturing believers. The series can be tailored to coincide with school terms and spread over a 19-37 week period or longer.

It has been designed to be simple to teach, and easy to administrate. It multiplies groups with minimal supervision through equipping and involving ordinary Christians in leadership.

The purpose of the four modules is to establish new believers quickly with strong Biblical foundations, free disciples from bondages that they bring into their Christian walk, help them to reach out to people they know, and equip them to disciple these people.

Evangelism is the fruit of revival

When God’s people are truly revived and renewed spiritually, it results in a new vision for a lost world and a new commitment to reach out to those who do not belong to Christ. Evangelism is the fruit of revival.

Module 3. The War Is Real

Firstly, the module has been designed to help the disciples discover their own unique God-given gifts and how they can best use their gifts as they serve God and help others.

Secondly, this module teaches on spiritual warfare, combining prayer, intercession and fasting as spiritual weapons against the enemy who has blinded these people.

The third aspect is to help the disciples apply the principles of prayer warfare practically by targeting three people in their circle of influence and praying for them over a 40-day period with the aim of seeing them come into the kingdom of God.

The topics include:

The video presentation called ^©Behind The Scenes has been designed as an effective evangelism tool for presenting the Gospel to their friends at the conclusion of their 40-day prayer warfare.

• New converts from prayer evangelism

New disciples of Jesus should be the result of prayer warfare and evangelism. This is how new groups of brand new believers can be multiplied.

Ideally, the person who prayed new believers into God’s kingdom would follow them up, and become their coach.

With the oversight of their current coach they would assist the new believer to begin Module One while they themselves complete Module Four.
