If your friend is a Christian, who is struggling with an addiction, a major emotional, relational, or financial issue, then you would need to familiarize yourself with the series provided by selecting, “I want to overcome a LIFE PROBLEM” on the WCTLC Start Page. On the next page, before you select the little dark green bar, at the top of the page: “I’m A Regular Participant,” read the introduction to that program below it.

If you are not sure which problem is bothering your friend the most, you might start with the “Life” issue and then go to “Finding The Right Problem.” Just go through it, as if you are your friend, to see if you can identify their main problem. As you are asking them questions, you will start to see struggles that they are going through. You are looking for: What issue is bothering them the most? Which one is causing most of the others? Which one needs to be dealt with first? And, which one will motivate them to keep seeking Jesus’ help?

There will be special needs your friend will have that must be addressed additionally. While you and your friend are going through a particular series, you will probably need supplimental prayers, books, booklets, pamphlets, and worksheets. It would be good for you to familiarize yourself with all those things that may help you and your friend with times when something unique and unexpected happens. Just go to the WCTLC Start Page and select: I need RESOURCE MATERIALS to help others.

On the WCTLC Start Page, there is a logo in the left, bottom corner that will take you to the HELP eMagazine. It has a bookstore with book series and sermons available. It a little more graphic, with pictures of a bookstore and books in it. Rather than lists for you to select, it gives you pictures of books with their names. HELP eMagazine provides stories, the purpose of each program provided in WCTLC.com, and many other displays of information.
