This session looks at what we really mean by evangelism and explores the breadth of it.

This series is written by Third Space Ministries, a charity which seeks to demonstrate the love of God in ‘third spaces’ – community spaces and leisure industries. https://thirdspaceministries.co.uk/

Discuss any feedback from last week, especially with the ‘taking it further’ section.

Read below bible verses:

My food,” said Jesus, “is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work. ³⁵ Don’t you have a saying, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. ³⁶ Even now those who reap draw their wages, even now they harvest the crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together. ³⁷ Thus the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true. ³⁸ I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labour.”

John 4: 34-38

4. What do we learn about sowing and reaping from this passage?

5. What is your main take away point from this session?  Is there anything you will put into action as a result?

Taking it Further:

• Continue to spend time dwelling on God’s love
  
• Continue to pray for your non-Christian friends daily
  
• Pray for and look for an opportunity this week to sow a seed in someone else’s life.  Be intentional in your actions and/or words to help people see that you are motivated by God’s love.
