Workshop #1: How to Find Potential Key Volunteers: Going to the University

Step out in faith and believe that God will lead you to the resources He has already provided as you go. Remember, you are seeking to enter into fellowship with God as He builds His kingdom! Even launching a new movement is an opportunity to walk with Him and come to know Him more.

Overarching Perspective:  As you meet with individuals, listen to what God is putting in their hearts.  We are not trying to recruit people to our agenda, but rather to discover God’s agenda together with regard to launching new movements.

Go to the university!  Prayer, casting vision and evangelism are foremost in launching a new movement, so engage in the following activities as you go:

• internet evangelism: sow broadly and identify those with a vision to reach their university

• prayer walk

• decode: listen, learn, and expect God to lead you to ‘people of peace’ or existing believers.  (Decoding A Campus)

• evangelistic outreach, personal broad sowing (Soularium or other strategies), use a tool like the KV Challenge

• begin building relationships with university administration

In launching, your main purpose is to seek to discover Potential Key Volunteers, get to know them, cast vision to them and give them an opportunity to respond.  

Although evangelism is an essential part of finding Potential Key Volunteers, as strange as it may sound, you are not at the university simply to share the gospel with as many people as possible.  Your goal is to find Potential Key Volunteers who will mobilize other believers to share the gospel at their university while they are building spiritual movements.

Assignment:  Go explore and network at a university, asking God to lead you to PKVs.  After, debrief your time with the following questions:

Now that you’ve gotten some experience looking for PKVs, you’ll learn about how you can filter through lots of students quickly to find those who God has already prepared with a vision for reaching his or her University with the gospel.
