APPLY YOURSELF TO THE FIELD MINISTRY, April 13-19, 2026, Make Return Visits: FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. (Making Disciples: A Work of Love, Lesson 8, Section 3). Assignment Prepared.

Make return visits (5 mins.) FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. Offer a Bible study to someone who attended the Memorial (lmd lesson 8 point 3).

Setting: The publisher visits a person who attended the memorial, asks what they thought of the meeting, and takes the opportunity to offer them the chance to start a Bible study.

Publisher: Hello, [name]. It's so nice to see you again. I just wanted to say hello and thank you for attending the commemoration. It was wonderful to see you there. What did you think?

Assistant: Honestly, I really enjoyed it. It was a very respectful and straightforward meeting. It left a good impression on me.

Publisher: I'm glad to hear that. Was there anything that particularly caught your attention?

Assistant: Yes, I liked that everything was explained using the Bible and that Jesus' sacrifice was emphasized so much. Although, to be honest, I was also left with some questions and the feeling that I still don't understand several things.

Publisher: It's completely normal to feel this way. Many people experience the same thing the first time: they like what they hear, but they realize they want to understand the Bible better. Therefore, I would like to offer you the opportunity to begin a Bible study course, where you can find answers to your questions.

Assistant: Exactly. Although I must confess I'm not sure I want to start a Bible course right now. It seems like a very serious or lengthy thing to do.

Publisher: Thank you for telling me so honestly. Don't worry, it's not about pressuring you. In fact, sometimes the idea of ​​a "course" can give the impression of something formal or demanding.

Assistant: Yes, that's what I thought.

Publisher: I understand. That's why, rather than seeing it as a course, I would consider it something simpler: a brief discussion about a specific question from the Bible. For example: Why did Jesus die? How does his sacrifice benefit me? Why does God allow suffering? Or what real hope does the Bible offer for the future?

Assistant: That sounds more practical.

Publisher: That's the idea: not to overwhelm with information, but to find clear answers in the Bible. Jesus himself said in John 17:3: “This means eternal life: that they may come to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.”

Assistant: That text is very beautiful.

Publisher: Furthermore, these discussions are designed for beginners. No prior knowledge is necessary. Everything is analyzed step by step, with simple questions and clear text.

Assistant: And how long would it take?

Publisher: It's tailored to each person. It can be a conversation of an hour or even less. It's free, with no obligation, and you can try it once before deciding if you want to continue.

Assistant: That puts my mind at ease, because I wouldn't want to commit to something that I can't follow through on.

Publisher: And she's right to think that way. That's precisely why, instead of starting the whole course, we could just look at one question next time: something brief and without pressure.

Assistant: That I could do.

Publisher: That's wonderful. Furthermore, you've already taken an important step by attending the commemoration. Perhaps the next step is to better understand the value of Jesus' sacrifice in your life.

Assistant: Yes, because that was one of the points that made me reflect the most. I'd like to understand what that means for me.

Publisher: That's an excellent question. We could start right there: how does Jesus' sacrifice benefit us?

Assistant: I think it's a good way to start.

Publisher: I'm glad. Many people who had doubts at first are discovering that these conversations are simple, enjoyable, and very useful.

Assistant: Yes, I think the word "course" is more impressive than necessary.

Publisher: Exactly. That's why it's best if you experience it yourself. The important thing is that it helps you draw closer to God and better understand His Word.

Assistant: Seen that way, it seems fine to me.

Publisher: Perfect. Then, next time I can visit you and we can go over a short part of the first lesson together. Then you're free to decide if you'd like to continue.

Assistant: Okay, that's how I prefer it.

Publisher: I'm so glad. I sincerely believe you'll find it helpful, especially since you clearly value spiritual matters and want to understand the Bible better.

Assistant: Yes, when something interests me, I like to understand it well.

Publisher: And that's a very good attitude. So, let's leave it at that: next time we'll analyze a specific question and you can decide afterward.

Assistant: Perfect. That sounds good to me.

Publisher: Thank you so much, [name]. It was a pleasure talking to you.
