Engage Training - February & March 2014


In Luke 10:2 Jesus sais, "The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into his harvest."

That is why we do Engage Training. Jesus promises that the harvest is ready, all we need to do is to go into the harvest field. Many times we as Christians don't go because of different reasons: fear, lack of training, lack of conviction, personal or external barriers, the list goes on. That is what Engage Training is all about - equipping believers to go into the harvest field, not as a programme or event, but as a lifestyle. Once a person's heart has been cut with the gospel that heart will not be able to remain silent.

During February and March we had two groups attending the Engage Training. One was a campus specific training - equipping a number of students specifically for their environment - and during the other training we had people from 3 of our congregations attending.

It is really incredible to see how people are eager to reach the lost when they themselves encounter the gospel in a fresh way. Christ is our hope, our salvation as well as our motivation. He is the reason we go to the harvest.

As part of the training we also practically go out to engage with people specifically using the GodTest - a tool developed to help us start a conversations that leads to us being able to share the story of Jesus.
