Multiplying Believers—Evangelism is a contact / high impact
Team Sport

Cell evangelism and multiplication
pinpoint the main difference between small groups an cell groups.
Evangelism and multiplication must be the DNA of each cell.
--JoelComiskey

Evangelism must be moving a person
closer to Christ no matter where they are at. It is not necessarily
a process. It is not an event. It is smaller interactions.

Fishing with a net...working with
others in order to bring them closer to Christ. Fishing with a net
also impacts everyone else who is a relations with the prospective
followers.

In evangelism the cell leader must not
be the only one who does the evangelism; the entire group does the
evangelism.

Those who accepted his message were
baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that
day. Acts 2:41 NIV

Practical insights that must exist in
our DNA:

• Bring another person into the
  relationship before they come to the group

  
  

• We must celebrate small victories

  
  

• Can I help you in any of your
  relationships?

  
  

• Accountability and flexibility in
  our relationships

  
  

There is a difference between
walking the path and knowing the path. --The Matrix

Six Keys for effective cell evangelism

1. Prioritize cell evangelism: don't
   expect it will just happen

   
   

2. Celebrate the little victories:
   don't compare yourself with worldwide cell churches

   
   

3. Promote supernatural cell group
   evangelism: don't depend too heavily on techniques

   
   

4. Emphasize group evangelism: don't
   allow the the cell leader to carry the entire burden

   
   

5. Exemplify building relationships
   with non-Christians: don't expect that your people will befriend
   sinners

   
   

6. Keep on pressing on: don't be
   weary in well-doing

   
   

Multiplying Churches

Lindsey Cofield

Be faithful to what God has called you
to early in life. Pour you life into others. Cell churches are
leader breeders (Timothy.)

God seems to be telling us that the
most import thing is about non-tradition church is leader development
(Timothy.)
