GoThereFor is an online home of practical ideas for disciple-making ministry.
A paid GoThereFor membership gives you instant electronic access to a wide library of ministry resources. You can download them, print them, and share them in groups you lead or attend.
There are over 100 titles in the library—here are the most popular ones:
Video courses are great for all types of groups, but especially for groups where not everyone enjoys reading the same amount. You can run the video courses straight from your laptop, tablet—even your phone!—or connect your TV up for a bigger group to watch.
A paid membership lets you access the courses from anywhere you have an internet connection; there are no discs to lose, or to pass around to people.
A video course doesn't mean silently watching videos in a group, though: there are downloadable discussion and Bible study materials included as well.
Here's an example: one of the videos from the first session of Six Steps to Loving your Church:

These two studies are from our Interactive Bible Studies series—more in-depth for maturing Christians.

As you can see, a lot is included in a paid GoThereFor membership. But the resources are only part of the story.
If you're still not convinced of the benefits of a GoThereFor paid membership, here are a few more considerations:
