• To know Jesus Christ better
• To draw near to the heart of our missionary God
• To develop a passion for God and for the lost
• To maintain our passion through a close personal tie with God and His Word
• To learn from the early Christians' exemplary life and effective presentation of the Good News
• To become more effective in our witness of Jesus Christ
• To gain a renewed sense of urgency for spreading the Good News in our day

Books have been written about different methods of sharing the the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ. "The Four Spiritual Laws," "Friendship Evangelism," and "Sharing Your Faith Without an Argument" are some of the most used methods. Our intention is not to take anything away from these works. However, we are convinced that examining the Scriptures to see how the early believers lived and shared the Gospel will be of great benefit to us. First, to our spiritual development of drawing closer to God, and secondly, making us more effective witnesses as we learn from their passion for God and the lost. Instead of just giving out a "gospel formula" in our presentation, we will learn from the early Christians' prayerfully dependence on the Holy Spirit to lead them in the different situations they encountered in sharing the Good News. We will learn how to rely on the Person of the Holy Spirit instead of regurgitating a pat formula.
