Oral discipleship model growing the church in South America, Africa

by | 08 Dec 2017

17-year-old Kelvin in Colombia followed traditional religious beliefs as a boy, but he realized he was too dissatisfied with the practices of this religion at the time of his confirmation. He grew increasingly distant from his childhood faith until one day he encountered the JESUS film, followed by an EvangeCube demonstration in the park.

He accepted Christ and soon began attending a small group to grow in his faith. The group primarily learned biblical truth through a method called Tell THE Story – listening to Bible stories and memorizing them. Today, he is part of the youth group and shares his faith with others.

Tell THE Story is already improving discipleship and strengthening leaders like Kelvin in Colombia. Milton Matheus, Colombia JESUS Film Coordinator, said it has provided a solution for consolidating new believers into small groups planted by JESUS Film teams each month. With Tell THE Story in Matheus’ community, about 200 people in 20 small groups recently listened to biblical stories throughout a three-month period.

Bandera peru
Caption

La bandera de Perú tiene tres franjas verticales: dos rojas y una blanca. El color rojo, según los historiadores, representa la sangre derramada de miles de héroes y mártires que dieron la vida por defender su patria y su gente. Mientras que el color blanco representa la libertad, justicia y paz en Perú. El escudo de armas tiene una vicuña y un árbol de la quina, símbolos importantes de Perú y una cornucopia centralizada, representando la prosperidad.
