APPLY YOURSELF TO THE FIELD MINISTRY, June 1-7, 2026, Make Return Visits: FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. (Making Disciples: A Work of Love, Lesson 8, Section 3). Assignment Prepared.

Make return visits (4 mins.) FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. Offer a Bible study (lmd lesson 8 point 3).

Setting: The publisher resumes a previous conversation with someone about the challenges of raising children. During the conversation, he uses a Bible text to highlight the importance of listening patiently and controlling anger when communicating with children. The conversation ends positively, as the person agrees to try a Bible study and shows hospitality by inviting the publisher into his home.

Publisher: Good afternoon. I came back because I kept thinking about what you said regarding how difficult raising children can be. I found a very simple principle that has helped many parents improve communication with their children. This advice is in the Bible, specifically in James 1:19. Would you like to read it, please?

Assistant: Of course. “I want you to know, my dear brothers, that everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger.”

Publisher: Thank you so much. Sometimes, with the pressures of daily life, it's easy to lose patience and react without thinking. This text teaches us that, for our children to listen to us, we must first do something, right?

Assistant: Yes, listen to them first. And often that's the mistake we make, because we let ourselves be carried away by anger.

Publisher: That's right. That's why the Bible also encourages us to control our anger and act with patience. That may be the secret to maintaining good communication.

Assistant: That's absolutely right. That would help to have calmer conversations.

Publisher: Many people are surprised to discover that the Bible contains such practical advice for daily life. In fact, to show you how we analyze these topics in a simple way, I'd like to show you a very short video titled: “What are our Bible courses like?”

Assistant: Sure. (Watch the video).

Publisher: As you can see, this isn't a school course, and there are no exams. Rather, it's an interactive conversation with videos and questions, where you can progress at your own pace. If you'd like, we could even dedicate just five minutes to the topic of family today. And if you decide afterward that it's not for you, that's perfectly fine.

Assistant: Yes, I really have nothing to lose by trying. Besides, the advice you gave me seemed spot on. But I'd better go in, because it's quite hot outside.

Publisher: Thank you very much, I really appreciate it.
