People of Passion

Churches talk about having an impact on their communities. Sermons highlight the call for the Gospel to change the world. People hear the invitation to get outside the walls of the church and minister to people in everyday life. Many want to open the doors of the church to the community. However, most don't know where to start. The desire to open doors to the community is present, but the practical know-how is lacking. People of Passion provides the start-up activities that help Jesus followers experiment with ways of connecting with others in their local neighborhoods, cities and towns. This activity workbook offers clear, practical instructions for engaging the world outside the church with the Gospel of Jesus. Its thought-provoking information combined with action-oriented steps empowers people to move out and impact those who need to know God's love. These practical sessions are designed for a small group of about seven passionate people who are longing to see God touch the world in a personal way. These People of Passion have: Passion for Christ Passion for their Church Passion for their Community As the People of Passion group works through these activities, the individuals will discover new ways to be God's people in their neighborhood. The ripple effects of these activities will spread to others within the church while also opening new doors for the Gospel into the community
