The field school of evangelism in Hong Kong led by Dr. Ron Clouzet, ministerial secretary of the Northern Asia-Pacific Division, continued with a training on how to give Bible studies to non-believers. Entitled “The Power of God’s Word,” the seminar offered seven different sessions, including a sermon that illustrated the rich experience available when one studies God’s Word with care.
The training not only taught how to obtain Bible study opportunities with people, and how to give studies to them, but also how to study the Bible in a group setting, and how to pray for those studying the Bible. Often, Bible studies seem unsuccessful because people study but do not make decisions to follow through with what they are learning. Prayer, earnest, promise-based prayer is the key. In addition, Dr. Clouzet taught people how to study the Bible for themselves. It is the richness of personal Bible study what will fuel the energy and a greater ability to study the Bible with others.
The training was given at the Bible Auditorium Church, and it was aired live online to 16 other participating churches. A good number of members from every church signed up a commitment to give Bible studies to seekers.
