Paul and Suzanne Johnson are addicted to evangelism! It’s the Introducing God
course that got them hooked. So far they have run between ten and
fifteen courses in their home and they haven’t had a course where
someone hasn’t come into relationship with God.

 Introducing God in the City
The average city worker
either works during their lunch break, takes a jog through Hyde Park or
reenergizes with a 20 minute power nap, but something quite different
was happening at Governor Phillip Tower.
A group of
Christians from a prominent legal firm ran ‘Introducing God’ over ten
weekly lunchtime sessions with six to twelve people. They watched the
Bible talks by Dominic Steele on DVD and then followed it up with
discussion over tea and coffee.

"I'm much clearer in what I believe" - retirement village ministry |

Effective use of iGod at a retirement village
Bev
Menzies has run Introducing God twice at a retirement village in
Northmead, and has found it very effective in reaching churched
retirees with the gospel of Jesus.
The group of 8-12
residents met weekly in the village’s cinema to watch the DVDs, then
afterwards moved into a nearby meeting room to discuss the topics
raised over afternoon tea.
According to local church
worker and course driver Bev Menzies, the guests related well to the
discussion time, the stories and the talks, and felt comfortable to
talk about the ideas presented by Dominic Steele.
“They could explore what their faith meant to them in a relaxed atmosphere and ask questions,” said Bev.

|
|
Former radio journalist Dominic Steele, now a priest in the inner city suburb of Annandale, Sydney, presents the Introducing God series
on video or DVD. The Australian-made series, pitched at a post-modern
mindset, has proved to be an effective way of bringing people into a

Katrina's Story
Katrina
promised herself that if the community announcement was made again
before she arrived home, then she would go. The announcement was about
a church group who were going to talk about the movie The Passion of the Christ. Katrina had seen the movie, and she wondered what a church group would think of it.
The information night that Katrina attended led her to sign up for Introducing God, a course which would give her a chance to get to know the friendly people she had met at this church.
