I love soul winning! It is not something I feel I am good at, but I have learned the more you go the more fruit you will have. I love the quote by Dr. Curtis Hutson, “The only alternative to soul winning is disobedience to God.” I truly want to obey and please my Heavenly Father. The Bible tells us Jesus came to seek and to save the lost. If this was His purpose, I certainly want it to be mine as well.
As the Lord crosses my path with someone I am able to share the gospel with and they trust Christ, I always want to have something to give them to help nurture their spiritual growth. Years ago, I discovered this resource and have given away hundreds. I do my best to give one to every person I have the opportunity to lead to the Lord. I encourage them to work through each chapter and I tell them that I will connect back with them and review each chapter and answer any questions they might have. I feel this investment in their initial growth is equally my responsibility as it is to share the gospel with them. I am the father of four young children and understand how much they need me after birth. So it is with every new Christian. They need spiritual guidance to flourish and develop a sure foundation.
I believe I have a significant responsibility to provide guidance in spiritual growth and development for all of those in whom I lead to the Lord. I know that I cannot be with them for every question and test they face, but I can equip them with growth resources. For this reason, I love this book! It is the perfect gift for every new believer. I would encourage you to use this resource in your pursuit of the great commission and fulfilling your desire to have fruit that remains.
