The best way for you to help a friend join you in these studies is, find out what problems are bothering them the most. Before you take them through the benefis of Bible Life Counseling and help them see what Jesus has done for you, you need to find out what they want Him to do for them. Asking a lot of questions becomes your first assignment. Before you start sharing your story, you need to have asked some very important questions.

Jesus will be taking you through “The Purpose Study” while you are asking your friend questions. This will help you see how Bible Life Counseling will bring your friend the happiness they seek. While you are asking your friend important questions, in your mind you will be comparing their needs and desires with what Bible Life Counseling provides.

When you feel you have asked enough questions, you will be ready to compare Bible Life Counseling to them in a way that helps them see how it will meet their needs. Jesus will use Getting Acquainted to help them get ready for the healing they need. But, there is a need for you and Jesus to do what it takes to help them want to expose themselves to it. They need to be helped to get started in Bible Life Counseling.

Your friend’s needs and wants can be very different from yours. Your questions will help you address your friend’s wants, desires, and goals. The more you go over the benefits of Bible Life Counseling through Growing: Year Two, ahead of time, the more information you will have to help your friend want to join you and Jesus.

After you have found out, as much as possible, about your friend and their needs, the most powerful tool you have, will be the wonderful things Jesus has done for you. Share your victories, breakthroughs, miracles, and blessings from Jesus with them. Ask Jesus to help you present them in a way, so they can compare your breakthroughs with their problems. Ask Him to help you make them relevant to their situations.

The more you know about the concerns of your friend’s life, the easier it will be to keep them involved. Your familiarity with their interests, needs, problems, and difficulties, will help you shape these studies and prayers to fit them. They are seeking happiness; and, they are using certain procedures and methods to get it. Ask Jesus to help you make the time with them relate to their interests and needs.

As you are going through your Special Features, Jesus will give you prayers that will help you compare these studies with the characteristics of your friend’s needs. You will be asking Him to help you find out what it is that will motivate them to join you. As you meet with your friend and ask them to share with you what it is that is concerning them the most in life, you will see why they need Bible Life Counseling. You will see how it will help them reach their goals, meet their needs, and help them feel better about life.
