JESUS Film Evangelistic Strategies - JESUS Film Harvest Partners

Follow-up and discipleship are vital to evangelism.

The volunteer should be trained and prepared to visit the viewer with confidence and ease. If the film was delivered in person, the same person should do the follow-up visit. The visit should begin with a casual conversation, followed by a discussion about the viewer’s impression of the film.
The volunteer should then ask if the viewer prayed the salvation prayer after the film. If so, the volunteer should equip the new believer with a Bible and set a time to visit them the following week.

The week after the volunteer leaves the initial follow-up literature, the volunteer should take the first of a series of Bible lessons to the new believer.
Suggested Study: “Basic Bible Studies for New and Growing Christians”. Other discipleship studies can be found here.
“Basic Bible Studies for New and Growing Christians” can be purchased from the Foundry or by phone: 1-800-877-0700.

Each week the volunteer will walk the new believer through the next lesson of a Bible study. The volunteer should attempt to gently guide the new Christian in their faith as needs and questions arise.
It is helpful to recommend the new believer to read the Bible each day, beginning in Luke, keep a journal, and attend a small group or Bible study at church. After a few weeks in the small group, the new believer may be ready to attend a worship service.

The mentor should work with the new believer to find a daily study to follow the initial Bible study.
