The journey builds on foundation of:

Caring about your friends. Get to know what is really going on in your friend's world. It is moving beyond "How are you?" and knowing the answer to "How are you really?"

Showing Love. In MyFriends we don't mean the sentimental or romantic ideas you see on TV. Love means putting the needs of your friends above your own needs. It involves taking action for their good, even when that is inconvenient.

Prayer. Many of our problems are too big for us to solve on our own. To see lasting change we need to see God change attitudes or circumstances. Prayer is the way we talk with God about these things.

If God is important to you here are four actions you can take. These things may be new to you. That is OK. This is a journey and on the journey you will get better with these actions.

If you feel God is very distant from you or you don't think He is doing anything in your life, you can pass on this set. Maybe one of your friends will be sharing with you what God is doing in their life. Listen. Ask questions. Remember they are your friend. You don't have to agree with everything they say.

Share what God is doing in your life. Be specific. Share your stories that have something in common with the other people's experiences and which they will find easy to identify with. Your friends will find it easier to follow your story if you talk about your feelings.

Let your friends experience God. When they have needs, ask if you can pray for them. Keep your eyes open when you pray. Use everyday words that everyone will understand. Pray in Jesus' name. If the situation allows, let your friend pray after you. Then ask how God answered your prayers.

Connect your friend to God. Tell them how you became a follower of Jesus. You may find this outline helpful.

Release and encourage your friend to tell their friends what God has done in their life
Once two or more of your friends want to know more about Jesus it is good to:

Form a group. Ask your friends if they want to get together on a regular basis to talk about God. You might meet weekly, fortnightly or for special events. We suggest using the outlines for Life Principles

Talk about the Basics. Once you have a group of three to seven people committed to going through God’s story together, you can begin going through the Basic Conversations.

Celebrate. Important decisions in our lives are celebrated (eg, weddings). Baptism should also be celebrated appropriately. Here are some ideas on how to organise a baptism party where you can invite your family, friends and community.

Continue Community. Faith is meant to be lived out in community. Here is an outline that you can follow with any Bible passage once you have completed the 10 Basic Conversations.
