Arrows of Truth # 12- What is the 3rd step of the Hunters strategy (part c)?

The 3rd step of the Hunters strategy is to “pursue”; ie. to intentionally develop a relationship of restoration with the dropout believer - but only after the Lord has affirmed to us His desire for our pursuit of this particular individual.

The last two weeks we introduced three elements of this process:

a) Conversations

b) Visits

c) Correspondence (emails, text, social media, cards)

This time, let's consider correspondence. The third aspect of relationship building is correspondence – these days that may be text, emails, social media, or e-cards that can cover any occasion. For some of us old timers it may be letters or cards. Cards may be used to remember birthdays, anniversaries, and so on. Email, text and social media may also be used as appropriate for informal touch points.

What is the point? If you have ever been in sales the point is obvious. It has been determined that it takes 7 or more “touch points” to build up mind share or a degree of familiarity. Out of sight/out of mind is another way to put it. By reinforcing your continuing long term interest in the dropout as a friend, your love will begin to be known and perceived by them.

And we all know that ‘love never fails.’

TIP #12

Consider the 2 or 3 dropout believers, whom the Lord has shown you to engage with. Seek an opportunity to visit together at a natural time. Sometimes we just have game nites.
