Imagine if you will, what the folks in your community are looking for. Most are looking for a good time, along with meaning for their lives. Now imagine how your church can help them find both. As you think, are you including recreation in your imagining?
That's right, recreation. Of course I mean Christ-centered recreation. Recreation that is used as a ministry tool to reach lost and unchurched folks in your community.
To be direct, the people in your community are not looking for another sermon or Bible study. They are looking for fun and games. Well, give it to them. Give them what they want-fun and games, so you can introduce the to what they need, salvation in Jesus Christ. But how do you get training in this type of ministry? SHARE LAB can help you.
