Ministry Aids

If new sharing tools are needed to help reach Japanese- and Asian Americans with a gospel presentation that made sense to them, then new ministry aids also are needed to help Christians grow in their relationship with Christ and help them serve Him in ways that also made sense to them. From booklets to articles, the ministry aids Iwa has developed are valuable training resources for anyone ministering to Japanese- and Asian Americans.

A Date With Dad

This unconventional handbook was written from the perspective of God the Father who offers suggestions on how to spend a weekly date—Sabbath--with him. Iwa believes that Sabbath is a key to the evangelism that needs to take place in the Asian American community.

Fishing With A Bamboo Pole

This practical handbook goes through the stages and steps of how to bring a person to Christ, from the initial introduction to a commitment. Developed out of Iwa’s evangelism training workshop, “Hearing the Gospel with Asian American Ears,” it’s a booklet unlike any other, as it attempts to flesh out what the process of relational evangelism actually looks like.

Seeing the Contagious Christian Course With Asian American Eyes

This booklet provides a review of the Willow Creek Association’s popular evangelism training program, the Contagious Christian Course, with suggestions on how to maximize its effectiveness for Asian Americans and other Asian people. It is not only valuable as an assessment of a particular evangelism training program, but is also valuable as an exposition of Iwa’s philosophy of evangelism.
