Pregnancy Care Centers
Christian pregnancy care centers around the world have used Good Soil Discipleship & Evangelism to good success.
A Bible-based Christian care center provides answers to questions young women face about important decisions they may be struggling with. And there’s another life choice that many of these women need to make, a personal response that will help them with inner peace and hope—eternal hope.
The Story of Hope
An Evangelistic and Discipleship Bible Study Workbook
The flexibility of The Story of Hope makes it an ideal choice for use in pregnancy care centers.
- It is time-flexible—can be used in brief presentations or for more in-depth Bible studies.
- It can be used in group studies, one-on-one studies, or personal take-home studies.
The workbook format of The Story of Hope is designed for participants to be actively engaged in personal Bible study, studying Bible texts for themselves and coming to their own conclusions about God and the Bible and their need of Jesus.
The Story of Hope is an excellent study for women and men facing a crisis pregnancy, regardless of their religious backgrounds or what they know about the Bible. Studies begin in Genesis, where they begin learning about the Creator God who made them and loves them. Then, studies continue through the remainder of the Old Testament and to the end of the New Testament. When properly led, the participant will not feel pressured or coerced to “make a decision.” But, she will be given the opportunity to make a faith response to trust Jesus as her Savior.

Administrative Assistant of a pregnancy care center ministryI just finished a The Story of Hope study with a group of women. It was very well received and helped them, many of whom have little Bible knowledge, to understand the whole story. Many of these women are new believers, so it helped to cement their faith. A few unbelievers also attended sporadically, and took the book with them. I want to follow up with these women so they get the whole story. Very exciting! Thanks for your work on this material. It’s great!

FREE Book for Pregnancy Care Center Leaders
Gaining Ground with Good Soil is an evangelism and discipleship training narrative—a scaled-down version of the Good Soil Evangelism and Discipleship seminar in a narrative format. The principles gained from this book are applicable for anyone wishing to serve God through Biblical evangelism and discipleship, but is especially instructive and helpful for ministry leaders, such as leaders of pregnancy care centers.
The realistic, but fictional narrative, around which the book is developed, tells the story of a couple of missionaries who were frustrated and discouraged—to the point of almost giving up—because of their lack of success in evangelism and discipleship on their field. But, the “Good Soil” principles they learned from Bible study revolutionized their ministries. It will help you think through a theology of evangelism and discipleship and help you to present the gospel so that men and women will clearly understand it, sincerely embrace it, and firmly hold on to it.
Free instructional resources for individual and group study are also available for download. www.GoodSoil.com/FREE
If you are a pregnancy care center leader, with a USA shipping address, and will commit to reading this book, we will send you a FREE (and postage-free) copy of Gaining Ground with Good Soil.
