The other day a friend of mine sent me this message:
“Long time no text. Hope you and your family is doing well. My son is struggling with trying to talk and reach some high school friends that are Buddhist. Do you have any resources or tips to help him start a conversation with them.”
This podcast is an attempt to answer that question.

The Discovery Bible study was originally created overseas in order to give people seeking Jesus a way to discover Jesus. It can be used in all sorts situations from a group of lost people studying the Bible (under the influence of a disciple maker) to new believers classes, to youth groups and Sunday Schools. I’m not sure who first came up with it, but I ran into this form of it from Contagious Disciple Making whose information is listed below.
Discovery Bible Study – This is the copy you give to be used by seekers.
Discovery Bible Study with DNA – This is the copy you use or give to someone who wants to understand Discovery Bible Studies.
The Discovery Bible study is usually used with a chronological story set designed to take a person from Creation and the fall of man to the resurrection of Christ. Each story set has to be adapted to the culture or people group using it, but here are two lists you can consider starting with.
Calvary Road Ministries has two story sets that can be used. You can see their first story list here.
From Contagious Disciple Making. This book has a whole chapter on starting Discovery groups and using the Discovery Bible Study. It is one of my favorite books on disciple making. Also, check out their website for other useful information.
