Person of Peace

This podcast session from Zume Training focuses on identifying and investing in a "person of peace" for rapid disciple-making, particularly in areas with few followers of Jesus. Drawing from biblical instructions given by Jesus to his disciples, the speaker emphasizes focusing on individuals who are open, hospitable, well-connected, and faithful, rather than prioritizing finances or widespread outreach. Examples like the demon-possessed man in Gadarenes and the Samaritan woman at the well are used to illustrate how unexpected individuals can be persons of peace. The session outlines three methods for finding such individuals: asking for community recommendations, offering to pray, and introducing spiritual ideas into conversations. It concludes by stressing the importance of deep investment in a few, mirroring Jesus's own approach with his closest followers, rather than shallow engagement with many.
