The first step to forming missionary disciples is to lead people to a life-shaping encounter with Jesus Christ—one in which they become a true disciple of Jesus, where Christ is not just a part of their lives but becomes the very center. Many people might know about Jesus and the Catholic Faith. But a disciple is someone who knows Jesus personally. Jesus himself says, “This is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent” (John 17:3). In the win stage, our goal is to invite people to this kind of relationship with Christ. This requires being where people are and presenting the gospel in a way that invites them to respond with a decision. While it is God’s job to cultivate a heart change of belief, it is our role to be messengers of the good news by taking it wherever they are and in every possible way. When it comes to strategy, we have the tools, resources, and creativity to do evangelism in many different ways. Whether it's with an individual or in a group, the important thing is that we are taking steps of faith by sharing the gospel with the hope that God will use it to change lives.
