Exploring God's Colossal Promises
Life in Christ
Is Discovery Bible Study successful due to less opposition where it is used? Consider this — 1. Today which nation’s government is most adamantly committed to wiping Christians off the face of the earth? 2. Which nation has the fastest growing number of new disciples? IT IS THE SAME NATION!
When we employ the twin methods of Disciple Making Movements and Discovery Bible Study (DMM-DBS) as our evangelism strategy, an additional follow-up plan is not necessary. DMM-DBS accomplishes both quantitative growth (making new disciples) and qualitative growth (teaching them to obey what Jesus commanded). The methods of Jesus the Disciple Maker are brilliant!
How do Discovery Bible Study groups spread like wildfire and become Disciple Making Movements in which thousands and even millions follow Jesus? In the West, Bible study groups don’t proliferate like that. So, what are DBS groups doing differently?
Let’s take a guided a tour through an entire Discovery Bible Study session. When a group internalizes God’s Word, shares His Word, and seeks to obey it, marvelous things occur. They gradually discover who Jesus is and can’t resist following Him.
In a Discovery Bible Study (DBS), people who know nothing about the Bible become disciples of Jesus Christ. How is this possible? Because the texts they explore together set them on the bedrock of history. As they begin to identify with the Jews of Bible times, the light of faith gradually dawns. And when Jesus rises, their hearts become His!
Since 1994, millions of people have come to faith in a Discovery Bible Study, even though none of them were Christians when they began the study. We church goers used to being instructed by a Bible expert, wonder: How could a group of know-nothings reading the Bible ever become disciples of Jesus Christ?
What if a witnessing method did not require you to be a Bible expert with all the answers? In fact, you wouldn’t be the leader at all. Learn the counter-intuitive method of Discovery Bible Study.
Jesus Christ is still making disciples. In 1990, of the 100 million Bhojpuri in northern India, only 10,000 confessed faith in Christ. Today they number in the millions! Since then, the disciple-making principles that the Lord taught the Bhojpuris have spread to other parts of the globe. Why not your neighborhood too?
Ever wonder: “Do I have what it takes to be a disciple of Jesus?” All His disciples are misfits. But through the Father’s forgiveness, the Savior’s blood, and the Spirit’s indwelling presence, God reshapes us to fit into His plan to make disciples of all nations.
If a Christian disciple-making strategy had converted millions since 1994, yet was so simple that children can use it, would you consider it too good to be true, or too wonderful to ignore? Disciple-Making Movements (DMM) stands in a class by itself and can enhance the outreach methods you already use.
