APPLY YOURSELF TO THE FIELD MINISTRY, January 5-11, 2026, Make Return Visits: FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. (Making Disciples: A Work of Love, Lesson 8, Section 4). Assignment Prepared.

Make return visits (4 mins.) FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. Offer a Bible course (lmd lesson 8 point 4).

Setting: During a return visit, the publisher resumes a previous conversation with an interested person, discusses Psalms 37:10 and 11 to strengthen their hope for the future, and tactfully addresses their family concerns, leaving open the possibility of starting a Bible study at another time.

Publisher: Hello, [name], how are you?

Assistant: Hello, [name]. Good, and you? Please come in.

Publisher: Thank you. The last time we spoke, I told you I would come back to show you a Bible verse that gives us a lot of hope.

Assistant: Yes. That day you told me that very soon God will eliminate war and violence in the world, and that He will make the Earth a safe and peaceful place.

Publisher: That's right. Let's see what the Bible tells us in Psalms 37:10, 11. I'd like you to read them. This passage is very inspiring and gives us a clear vision of what we can expect in the future.

Assistant: Of course, with pleasure: “Just a little while longer and the wicked will be no more; you will look where they were and they will no longer be there. But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy abundant peace.”

Publisher: As you just read, Jehovah promises that wicked people will cease to exist and that we will enjoy peace.

Assistant: That's wonderful. It's exciting to think about a future where there will be no more suffering or pain.

Publisher: Have you had time to think about what I told you about starting a Bible course?

Assistant: Yes, I've been thinking about it, and honestly, I'd like to. Everything you've said sounds interesting, but I don't want my family and neighbors to worry or think I'm changing or anything like that.

Publisher: I understand your concerns. Sometimes people can be a little closed off to new ideas, especially if they don't fully understand them. But I want to assure you that there's nothing wrong with learning about the Bible and seeking a deeper relationship with God. In fact, it's a very positive and enriching experience.

Assistant: Yes, I suppose you're right. It's just that I don't want to cause problems in my family or for them to think I'm doing something wrong.

Publisher: I completely understand. Look, you don't have to make any decisions right now. How about I come back another day? And if you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them.

Assistant: Yes, that sounds good. Thank you.
