Some of us quote John 3:16 or pass out gospel tracts. We appeal to the fact that God has a wonderful plan for a person\u2019s life. But in recent years our efforts have often been met with blank stares or harsh criticism. As to those who do confess Christ, it seems many fall by the wayside or show no fruit of understanding in their lives. Some believers secretly wonder about the power of the gospel and whether it even works.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->The GoodSeed TERM\u2122 Seminar is a time to stop and rethink evangelism in the context of our diverse, ever-changing world. The seminar takes participants into Scripture to see what it has to say about evangelism methodology. In the process there springs to light an approach that Jesus used on the road to Emmaus. The architecture of The Emmaus Road Message (TERM) has proven effective\u2014whether we are engaging the confused, the seeker or the hardened.<\/p>\n<p>The revised TERM Seminar is comprised of five modules.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1808\" src=\"http:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/term-diagram1.png\" alt=\"TERM Modules A-E\" width=\"760\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/term-diagram1.png 760w, https:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/term-diagram1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/term-diagram1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/term-diagram1-50x50.png 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>Module A: Evangelism Rethink<\/strong><br \/>\nDo we face barriers within ourselves? Are we fearful? Uncertain? Do we lack knowledge? What other obstacles are there?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Diversity\u2014people who hold to a different religion or worldview<\/li>\n<li>Ignorance\u2014people who are biblically illiterate<\/li>\n<li>Confusion\u2014those who are syncretized, mixing spiritual truth with error<\/li>\n<li>Resistance\u2014people hardened against the gospel<\/li>\n<li>Believers\u2014yet not clear about the message<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What does the Bible say about these challenges? In this module we investigate the biblical solutions and find direction from Scripture.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Module B: Lifestyle Rethink &#8211; The Written Letter<\/strong><br \/>\nTake a journey with us through The Emmaus Road Message\u2014a lesson on teaching as Jesus taught. In so doing we discuss the importance of clarity in presenting a message.<\/p>\n<p>We demonstrate, \u201ctried and tested\u201d ways of getting started in sharing the written Word.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Module C: Lifestyle Rethink &#8211; The Living Letter<\/strong><br \/>\nWe begin with the importance of having a Christ-like testimony in evangelism.<\/p>\n<p>Then we address concerns believers have when presenting the gospel, such as personally not knowing the Bible, not being able to explain things, or coming across as preachy.<\/p>\n<p>We share practical solutions, so that any believer can communicate the gospel in way that is engaging, accurate and without arm-twisting.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Module D: Worldview Rethink<\/strong><br \/>\nIt is a basic concept of learning that \u201cas you are taught, so you will teach.\u201d In this module the realities of guiding a course are modelled as you experience the Worldview Rethink curriculum for yourself. This is a time where more is \u201ccaught than taught.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Module E: Outreach Rethink<\/strong><br \/>\nThis module highlights how you can effectively guide others through a Bible study course using specialized tools that include visual aids, guidebooks, and video.<\/p>\n<p>You will learn strategic ideas from real-life examples for sharing the gospel either as a personal or church-based initiative. The module will address ways you can train others in becoming effective ambassadors for Christ.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEMINAR DATES AND LOCATIONS<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Liverpool, UK<\/strong><br \/>\nModules A and B only<br \/>\nMar 1, 2014<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/2014term-uk-flyer_liverpool.pdf\">Download PDF flyer<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"TERM Seminar, Liverpool, UK\" href=\"http:\/\/uk.goodseed.com\/term-liverpool\/\" target=\"_blank\">See details and register<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Carlow, Ireland<\/strong><br \/>\nModules A and B only<br \/>\nMar 3 and 4, 2014<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/2014term-uk-flyer_ireland.pdf\">Download PDF flyer<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"TERM Seminar, Carlow, Ireland\" href=\"http:\/\/uk.goodseed.com\/term-ireland\/\" target=\"_blank\">See details and register<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Olds, Alberta, Canada<br \/>\n<\/strong>Apr 3-5, 2014<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.goodseed.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/2014_term_can_flyer_olds-d.pdf\">Download PDF Flyer<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"TERM Seminar, Olds, AB\" href=\"http:\/\/ca.goodseed.com\/term-seminar-alberta-2014\/\" target=\"_blank\">See details and register<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alumni rates and group rates are available for the Canada TERM Seminar.
