Every person is on a spiritual journey. The challenge of today is equipping believers for effective witness in the midst of our 21st century culture. CoJourners teaches believers to conversationally enter the spiritual journey of others, helping them come to Christ.

Everyone is on a spiritual journey. Why? God has created people as spiritual beings. Therefore, life is a spiritual journey. Some may be moving toward God, others away. Some may be moving toward other so-called “gods” or stuck in a spiritual quagmire. But everyone is on a spiritual journey, though we don’t always recognise that in others.

CoJourners teaches evangelism through four primary roles:

The Explorer: Initiating spiritual conversations, the believer discovers the spiritual journeys of others through active listening and asking questions. This role sharpens the believer’s ability to engage a person in spiritual conversation, assessing their openness to the gospel.

The Guide: The believer guides the open to faith in Christ through their own life-story and the gospel. This role sharpens the believer’s ability to articulate the gospel in conversationally appropriate ways.

The Builder: There are many issues and obstacles that can hinder those yet to come to Christ that need addressed through prayer and gentle persuasion. This role sharpens the believer’s ability to address these obstacles, enabling forward spiritual progress.

The Mentor: Those who come to Christ need encouragement to continue on their journey through relational connections to Christian community and through foundational concepts for Christian living. This role enables the believer to assist those who come to Christ or who have already come to Christ but are struggling.

CoJourners: Equipping Others in Personal Evangelism

• CoJourners is not dependent on a set of strategies or tools. It can give context to almost any strategy and tool used in personal evangelism.
• CoJourners does not change what effective evangelists do. It provides them a transferable way of equipping others in what they do.  does not change what effective evangelists do. It provides them a transferable way of equipping others in what they do.
