Emmaus: Contact (Stage 1) - Paperback

by Stephen Cottrell (Author)

Contact is a practical, hands-on booklet that helps churches make the most of their connections with those outside the church.

Most churches find that setting-up a course for non-churchgoers to explore Christianity is not the most difficult task â getting them to come is the real test. Here s where Contact steps in.

Contact builds on insights from recent research and case studies and provides helpful advice for churches on:

making contact with those outside the church
making the most of existing contacts, such as occasional attendees, toddler groups
connecting with people s spirituality
how to set up a nurture group
encouraging your church to be involved in evangelism and outreach

This second edition builds upon the experience of those who have used the Emmaus material since it was first published and also the considerable amount of statistical research which has been done in recent years.
