Harvest: Greg Laurie

What happens to someone who comes forward at a Harvest event?

At the conclusion of every Harvest event, Pastor Greg Laurie invites the audience to respond to the gospel message by inviting them to come forward to the platform. After a person comes forward and prays the prayer to receive Christ, the following three steps take place:

Step One: They meet with a trained Decision Follow-Up Worker, who will pray with them and give them a Start! Bible New Testament for New Believers. In addition, the counselor will encourage them to . . .

• Read the Bible daily
• Pray daily
• Get involved in a local Bible-teaching church
• Tell others about their decision to follow Christ

Step Two: The Decision Follow-up Worker documents the person's decision to follow Christ, filling out an information form. The documentation is then given to a local church representative on site.

Step Three: Within 48 hours of the event, local participating churches mail letters and make phone calls to the people they are following up on. To ensure the success of this step, Harvest utilizes mailings and other resources to encourage local churches to follow up with all new believers.
