Since Village Seven Presbyterian Church in Colorado has been running Christianity Explored as part of their evangelistic strategy, they’ve found it a great way to communicate the gospel message with people who would never come to church.
“As an outreach, it’s a great place to invite people who are looking for some answers, but who may not be ready to sit in a pew,” says David, who helps run the course.
“One young man had come along and was very much searching but he didn’t want any part of church. As he came into the gym and sat down, he said, ‘Oh, I’m in a school—great!’
“We want people to find out for their own is Jesus a lunatic, a liar, or is he the Lord? And we’ve seen well over two dozen people come to a full confession of faith through Christianity Explored.”
Village Seven hold CE twice a year, on Sunday evenings at 5.30pm. To hear more from David and his wife, and to listen to a wonderful testimony from a couple who became Christians through going on a course, visit the church’s website.
