A new three-week evangelistic course is being launched.
‘We want everybody to find the amazing hope that Christ offers us,’ says Rico Tice (see photo), co-founder of Christianity Explored Ministries. ‘That’s why we’ve created this new series called Hope Explored.’
The resource leads guests through three sessions where they can investigate whether the Christian hope is a hope worth having.
‘Churches are telling us that they know people who are willing to come along to a course, but not necessarily to commit to seven or eight evenings,’ says Tice. ‘At the same time, when people get to the end of a course they often don’t want to stop!’
Christianity Explored Ministries has responded by creating a course that’s just three weeks long, but which leads naturally into one of their longer courses. ‘We’ve found it’s much easier to ask people to do a three-week series after Christmas or Easter, rather than seven weeks,’ continues Tice. ‘Hope Explored is suitable for any time of year, but we know that, particularly at Christmas and Easter, what you need is a taster before people commit to so many evenings.’
Hope Explored also includes elements for those who prefer visual learning, such as picture prompts and simple graphics, allowing more people to engage with the resources.
