Reach for churches
Equip your people to share Jesus naturally.
REACH gives your congregation practical, relational evangelism training they can use on their own, in a small group, or across your church - without requiring your staff to build another program.
Your people care. They just do not always know how to begin.
Most Christians want the people they love to know Jesus. Yet many stay quiet because they are afraid of making the conversation awkward, saying the wrong thing, or being asked a question they cannot answer. You want to help, but weekly teaching, congregational care, and the daily work of ministry leave little time to create and lead another training program.
That is where REACH comes in: a ready-to-use collection of resources that equips and encourages your people to share Jesus with clarity, confidence, and care. You point the way. REACH helps them take the next step.
Built to activate your people without adding another burden to your staff.
Ready to Use
No curriculum development is required. Invite your congregation to begin, then let REACH guide them through practical, structured training.
Flexible by Design
Members can learn at their own pace, work through the series with a friend, or use the group study guide in a class or small group.
Relational, Not Confrontational
REACH teaches people to listen, ask thoughtful questions, and speak with kindness and respect—not pressure others or win arguments.
Practical and Repeatable
Short lessons and real-life examples help participants move from good intentions to everyday conversations with family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers.
Trusted Experience
REACH is created by Search Ministries, drawing on 50 years of helping spiritually curious adults explore life and faith through honest, respectful conversation.
Choose the approach that fits your congregation.
Share REACH during a sermon series, outreach emphasis, or churchwide initiative. Give members the direct link or QR code and encourage them to begin the free video series on their own.
Offer the video series through small groups, Sunday classes, men’s or women’s ministry, young adult ministry, or volunteer teams. A group study guide makes discussion easy to facilitate.
Begin with staff, elders, group leaders, or outreach volunteers. Let them experience the material, model the approach, and help others take part.
Confidence for conversations that matter.
- Share faith in a way that feels natural and authentic.
- Develop and communicate a clear personal testimony.
- Listen well and ask questions that open meaningful conversation.
- Respond calmly when they do not know an answer.
- Build genuine relationships with people who believe differently.
- Create a realistic plan for engaging people already in their lives.
- Trust God with the results while remaining faithful to the relationship.
The goal is not to turn people into walking encyclopedias or debaters. It is to help them become thoughtful, faithful friends who can talk about Jesus with clarity and care.
Grounded in real conversations, not theory alone.
For 50 years, Search Ministries has helped spiritually curious adults explore life’s biggest questions through honest conversation. REACH turns that experience into biblical, practical resources your congregation can use in real relationships.
