ACTS II: CONVERSION, PROCLAMATION, COMMUNITY

TRAINEE'S COMMITMENT

You will be embarking on a serious study of how to evangelize and bring others to the saving grace of God. "A serious preparation is needed for all workers for evangelization" (Evangelization in the Modern World, n. 73).You will learn how to systematically bring another to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

HOWEVER, this requires that you do the training as designed and this includes completing all required tasks including answering all study guide questions for each study session. You will not be able to move on until these tasks are completed.

The world is in need of the Lord Jesus and we are looking for trainees whose desire is to bring persons to Jesus Christ. That is the purpose of the training -- to enable those who go through this training to do just that.

DO NOT SIGN UP if you do not intend to do the training as designed.

The requirement for this study is a personal desire to first evangelize yourself! Your commitment to completing this study may, at times waver. It is at these times you that must call upon the Holy Spirit in prayer, to encourage you to continue. Often, this is a result of not having made the already covered material "your own". It may be necessary to review and review again the material in each session.

You are encouraged to invite a friend to take the training with you so both of you would proceed through the study together.

It would be very beneficial to you if you could get a friend to go through this training with you. However, if that is not possible, it will not prevent you from taking the training yourself. Regardless, you will need a friend to pray for you and you for him or her in the Life in the Spirit Retreat Weekend.

You must be willing to make the changes necessary in your busy time schedule to enable you to fulfill the time requirements of the online ACTS II Evangelization Training. You are committing to:

• Arranging your schedule so as to complete each session weekly or, at most, within two-weeks. The training takes approximately 5 months to complete if each session is done done on a weekly basis OR ten months to complete if each session is done within a two-week period.
  
  
• A faithful completion of each training session. It is required that you complete each session on a weekly, or at most, within a two-week period.
  
  

*** ATTENTION ***

To be an effective evangelizer, you NEED to know this material frontwards and backwards. It is up to you to make sure you have a succinct understanding of the material in each session.

If you do not "make each session your own", so that you have it at your fingertips, at some point you will be less able to explain your faith to others.

The world has an urgent need for well trained evangelizers who can speak intelligently about their faith. This is impossible unless you do what has been stated above.

The outcome of this training should result in trained evangelizers who have a fervor and zeal to bring others to Jesus. These are the qualities that characterize an effective evangelizer!
