Last week,
SBC President, JD Greear, announced a new initiative that he will present via
simulcast on January 31, called “Who’s Your One?”. His desire is to challenge associations
across the Southern Baptist Convention to encourage individuals to build a
relationship with a specific person in an attempt to share the gospel with that
person within one year.
Sponsored by the
North American Mission Board and the Yates Association, the simulcast will
begin at 12:30 p.m. Eastern time and feature Greear's introduction of
"Who's Your One?" to Yates Association pastors as they gather for a
luncheon at Ridgecrest Baptist Church in Durham. Other associations that sign
up online will receive login information to broadcast the event live.
Additional
information about the simulcast is forthcoming on the SBCAL website
(www.sbcassociations.org) and SBCAL social media channels.
For more information about the "Who's Your One?" initiative,

As you begin to make
plans to participate in this initiative, there are a variety of resources
LifeWay has that can assist you in your quest to equip your members in sharing
their faith and then to guide ‘their one’ on the path of discipleship.

And let me add that one of the best evangelistic and discipleship tools a church has is their small group Bible study organization. The best way for a person to grow in their understanding of who they are in Christ and the call that He places on each of His people is to be involved in the life of a small group and to stand shoulder to shoulder in serving others.
LifeWay has now provided an additional tool in this commandment to evangelize and disciple the world. Each of the three ongoing Bible study curriculum plans provides the Daily Discipleship Guide approach to Bible study. Small groups gather together to delve into the scriptures; then there is a five day guide for an individual to dive deeper in the study that they experienced as a group. In addition, there is a page that encourages a triad or accountability group to meet to share their discoveries at even a deeper level. That's disciples discipling each other!
