Now that participants have dug deep in to the basics of the faith and how to clearly understand their faith in order to “know” how Christianity is unique, participants begin to compare what they have learned with “other” religions. Comparing the key topics of “who is God” or “what is salvation” to ways other religions see these topics is one of two critical topics in this third year. Knowing what another religion defines “God” as is essential if you want to converse with someone about God. This year is spent on these topics with great detail. So they learn how to use year 2 knowledge to see how different faiths may/do differ from Christianity. Understanding these keys in personal conversation helps to build bridges with someone from another faith. Entering in to the world of apologetics in this program is a natural building block into sharing faith and leading others to Christ as they pull the first two years together with this third year of reaching the world. In the “building community” segment, this year spends a great deal of time in two ways: first, understanding how to “listen” to what others believe and see where you can begin a conversation from and next really listening to God’s voice as he leads a person to “their personal” next steps in this discipleship journey. Not all are called to the same path, so listening is essential in knowing what role God may be calling a specific individual to pursue. This year spends a great deal of time seeking direction and defining possible next step roles.
