Discovery Experience is an 8-week small group journey designed to help people answer the question “How is God uniquely calling me to invite people into conversations about Jesus?”
It was created by Northwest Bible spiritual formation staff to equip tour church body to more effectively have conversations about Jesus with those who don’t yet know Him, and it’s our most important next step to develop proficiency!
“What will I get out of Discovery Experience?”
- Discover what it looks like to take this lofty vision and personalize it in a way that’s doable and even life-giving.
- Answer the question, “How is God uniquely calling me to invite people into conversations about Jesus?”
- Reconcile your story, gifting, schedule, and unique personality with sharing God’s story with nonbelievers.

If you have questions, would like more information, or to join a group, email Justin Gaspar at [email protected] to let us know!
