The Master Plan Of Evangelism

 In 1963 Robert Coleman published a book called The Master Plan of Evangelism. This book has, through the years, been to me one of the greatest encouragements as to why college ministry matters. In the book Coleman argues that the way that Jesus did evangelism was to call men simply to be with him, that they might observe his life, learn from him, and be sent out to be with others, that others might observe their lives and learn from them the things that Jesus had instructed. When I think about raising up leaders for college ministry I get so excited about this model. A campus missionary, who has walked with Jesus for a long while, inviting young, moldable, excited students to come and be with us a while, that we might continue to both model the love of Jesus, and instruct them in the ways to live according to Jesus. In hopes that in the next year they would meet multiple young, moldable, excited to students to come and be with them, that they might both model the love of Jesus, and instruct their younger peers in the ways to live according to Jesus. And every year, this exact things happens. And it's multiplying just like Coleman theorized it would.

Sudeep and I have been studying the bible together all year and while at our annual leadership conference Sudeep made the decision to be baptized. Fully determining that he wanted to live his whole life for Jesus and making him known. I'm so excited for sudeep to lead this year and share his infections love for God with his peers!

Two other guys I've had the honor of getting to study the bible this year are Chris and Manny, Chris and Manny are both thoughtful young men from Africa that are here studying in the US. Both of these guys are so inviting to others, our ministry has grown so much both in numbers, and in diversity because of how many people these two have met at the gym and invited to come with them to our worship nights. 

And it's not just happening at UTA. Across DFW students are being raised up as leaders, and as missionaries of the gospel of Jesus on their college campus. And pictured above is only the freshman class. Every day on campuses across DFW hundreds of college students are participating in the master plan of evangelism. And the fruit is evident! Every week over the summer all of our students that are still in town are getting together to worship Jesus and continue to grow in their knowledge of God and his word. You can watch them do so here at this link!  Thursday Night Fellowship

And this is all still spreading. This year was the largest year of participation in college ministry from our student populations on every campus. God is doing an incredible thing. Thank you for investing in this mission! Speaking of investment, I have about $300 a month left to raise to reach my support goal for this year as a college missionary.
