POCATELLO – JesusForKing.com team members will be in front of the Bannock County Courthouse on Thursday afternoon, August 16th, from 3:00 to 5:00, enlisting volunteers in the battle against Biblical illiteracy and anti-Christian influences. Media and community leaders along with the people of southeast Idaho are invited to participate.

Theirs is not the typical approach to Christianity. They are calling on community leaders to repent and obey God and they are out in people’s homes telling Bible stories and discussing righteousness, self-control, and judgment to come.

 Chris Stevens, the founder of JesusForKing.com, says, “We start with storytelling, which is a fun and effective way to get a bird’s-eye view of the Bible. You get your family and friends together to listen to a story and discuss its meaning. It’s simply a blast!”

They are seeking volunteers to host neighborhood Jesus 4 King small groups. In addition to storytelling, they talk about a firmly grounded faith, transformation of character, training in spiritual warfare, and successful stewardship. There are no costs involved.

Through much research and experience, Chris has found that most people don’t learn best through lecture-style teaching, which is common to most churches. He concluded that this is one of the factors contributing to the decline of Christian principles in American society.

Most people learn best through group discussion; and learning retention is highest for those sharing with others. Recognizing that there are different learning styles and various factors that contribute to learning retention, Chris also wrote four study guides that are available for free at JesusForKing.com.

Reproducible Jesus 4 King small groups are designed to spread to every neighborhood in the region, and may be held at any time of day. Those who wish to get involved can visit the courthouse on Thursday afternoon or visit JesusForKing.com anytime.
