I am really so excited about the discipleship group in Olievenhoutbosch.
It's so amazing to see how a simple Bible study tool can help people to unlock the treasures found in the Word.
Our groups are based on the discovery Bible study method. We take a piece of scripture and then ask 5 questions. From these 5 questions they understand the Word for themselves, laying foundations of truth through knowledge they discoved themselves.
We spend on average 1hour on 2 pieces of scripture and I am so amazed at the actual simplicity of God's Word when we are willing to explore what it says. We are literally starting from scratch, laying the foundations as if there are none.
I am really excited to see how their understanding of God's Word, God, Jesus, salvation, Godly living etc will impact and transform their community!!!
Discipleship even taking place further than just the Word. Louis is currently doing his Grade 9 and Christo is helping him with some of his assignments...
This is John. He came out of prison in November 2011. During his time in prison he committed his life to Jesus and went through the Alpha course. He really has a solid understanding and foundation of who Jesus is. He does not really have any friends he can fellowship with, so these new friendships are good for him!!!
