The 7 Concepts
In order to train lay people to follow up on new believers, these seven concepts are taught in a “Nurturing New Believers” workshop now available on DVD. Together, they form the unique “l6/8 Plan” of 16 personal touches in the first 8 weeks. When completed, these lessons encompass the basics of “pre-discipleship,” a system that prepares the new person to embrace any church’s discipleship ministires.
