Book excerpt: Going Around The Corner engages adult Christ-followers, challenging them to consider their own neighborhood as a mission-field assignment by a sovereign God. Acts 17:26 tells us that God determines our appointed times and the boundaries of our habitation. We believe this truth. God divinely puts us where we live because He has a work for us to do as His ambassadors and ministers of reconciliation.Going Around The Corner is a mission strategy for your own backyard, using the same principles as a full-time missionary would use overseas. It is a 6-week Bible study that challenges you to see your neighborhood as your mission field, working through five stages to reach your neighbors, friends and co-workers with the gospel. You will learn to explore your neighborhood by accepting the mission and praying for believing partners. You will engage your neighbors, first by prayer walking and learning to listen to the prompts of the Spirit, and serving them through biblical good works. You will learn to evangelize through conversations and simply sharing your story. As God begins to use you to lead others to Christ, you will learn how to establish them in their faith through personal discipleship, and equip them by bringing them into your own church body.Going Around The Corner helps pastors and church leaders train their members by teaching a simple, practical, biblical strategy of disciple making. Building on a solid biblical foundation, the goal is to encourage, motivate, and equip believers to carry out the Great Commission.
