TRUE LIFE • DGROUP MICROEVENT • 8 SESSIONS
Official CCF Resources ↗
True Life
CCF’s evangelistic on-ramp for seekers and brand-new believers, moving from God’s love and the Gospel into first steps of discipleship.
How to Implement
1 — Choose the format
Weekend intensive: all eight sessions across Friday evening and Saturday. Multi-week: one or two sessions per DGroup meeting over several weeks.
2 — Prepare prayerfully
Pray over and personally invite participants. Read each workbook session ahead of time, rehearse discussion questions, gather workbooks, pens, Bibles and AV, and arrange a co-facilitator where helpful.
3 — Set a safe tone
Ask everyone to arrive on time, silence phones, protect confidentiality, avoid recording personal sharing, listen respectfully, and avoid judgment.
4 — Use the session rhythm
Welcome → Talk About It → Apply It → Pray It. A typical flow is 10 minutes welcome, 30–40 minutes discussion, 10 minutes application, and 10 minutes prayer.
5 — Protect sensitive moments
Keep confession private. Overcoming Strongholds should be led only by someone experienced and prepared, or alongside a seasoned leader/staff member. Know the pastor/care referral pathway beforehand.
6 — Coordinate baptism
Baptism is voluntary and should be coordinated with church leadership in advance.
7 — Follow through within the week
Personally contact each participant, connect them to a DGroup and GLC Level 1, record decisions and baptism follow-through, report outcomes, and prayerfully identify a possible future host.

PRAY • CARE • SHARE • PRACTICE
Official CCF Resources ↗
Evangelifestyle
An interactive workshop that helps participants practice sharing the Gospel as a way of life.
Choose Your Format
Option A — Condensed Workshop
Combine Sessions 1–2, use the Oikos Map during the break, then combine Sessions 3–4. Preview the video and confirm natural stopping points first.
Option B — Four Short Sessions
Recommended for weekly small groups. Each meeting is about 60–75 minutes with immediate practice after teaching.
4-Session Workshop Path
Session 1 — The Heart & the Harvest
Establish why Gospel sharing is every believer’s calling. Use an icebreaker, teaching clip, Harvest Wall activity, ambassador reflection, and a commitment to pray for specific people.
Session 2 — Pray & Care
Practice Pray-Care-Share and naturally starting a conversation using Ask · Admire · Admit. Build an Oikos Map of family, work/school, neighbors, and friends.
Session 3 — Share Your Story
Help each participant write and practice a one-minute testimony using Before → How → After.
Session 4 — Share the Gospel
Connect the testimony to the Gospel using the Best Decision booklet, practice the transition, use 2×2 role-play, and send participants out with a concrete plan to share.
Facilitator priority: Protect role-play and testimony-writing time. The goal is not merely to finish the material, but to send people out able to Pray, Care, and Share.
2BE1 • MARRIAGE • 8 SESSIONS
Official CCF Resources ↗
2Be1 Couples’ Retreat
A Christ-centered marriage retreat built around biblical teaching, meaningful couple conversations, and intentional time together.
Implementation Requirements
Use the full official retreat
Use official 2Be1 materials as provided. Official content and designs should not be modified.
Confirm approved duration
The manual states two days (stay-out or stay-in) or three days / two nights (stay-in). Schedule adaptations require approval through CCF Leadership / GLC.
Build the facilitator team around the ratio
Facilitators must be trained, with a maximum of 4 couples per facilitator.
Prepare four weeks out
Read the workbook and session guides, confirm dates, venue and co-facilitators, obtain needed approvals, open registration, build the facilitator team, and request official materials early.
Prepare 1–2 weeks out
Review each session, prepare brief authentic testimonies where appropriate, confirm worship, food, childcare, workbooks, pens, name tags and AV, secure materials, and pray by name for registered couples.
Create a safe environment
State confidentiality clearly. Keep sharing couple-facing rather than group-facing, do not force disclosure, avoid fixing or shaming, and protect private couple-conversation time.
Lead as a facilitator—not a therapist
Ask good questions, protect time, point discussion back to Scripture and Christ, and do not diagnose, treat, referee, or take sides.
