We need to make outreach a part of the fabric of our congregations. Organic Outreach offers a terrific pathway to lead your church toward a faithful fulfillment of the Great Commission.
Lee Strobel, Author of Case for Heaven and the bestseller, The Case for Christ
One-degree Rule
Every follower of Jesus has an outreach temperature. It can be hot, cold or somewhere in the middle. This temperature impacts the way we live our life and interact with those who are far from God. It is our responsibility to steward this temperature and seek to increase it so that our hearts burn hotter for those who are spiritually lost.
Two-degree Rule
The Two-Degree Rule is the concept that we can intentionally push the needle of the church a couple of degrees off dead north and vector some of our resources, time, care, energy and love toward those who are in the community and still far from God.
30-day Rule
A yearly outreach emphasis won’t do. An occasional pep talk is not enough. Congregations that want to keep the evangelistic fires burning will discover the need to fuel up every thirty days.
Gospel G.O.G.O
An easy-to-remember acronym that helps us share the key elements of salvation with people who don’t yet know Jesus.
