Pastors leading churches of all sizes and locations share a common conviction: the gospel must be clearly proclaimed, faithfully shared, and intentionally carried beyond the walls of the church. Yet many pastors also wrestle with practical questions. How do we ensure people hear the gospel when they attend an outreach event? How can we track gospel exposure and follow up wisely without overcomplicating the process?
The 3 Circles gospel presentation has long served churches as a clear, visual way to explain God’s design, humanity’s brokenness, and the hope found in repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. What many churches are discovering is that the 3 Circles gospel video extends that clarity even further. When used strategically, it allows churches to scale gospel conversations, reinforce personal evangelism, and create multiple touchpoints for gospel engagement.
The following four approaches offer practical ways for churches and ministries to utilize the 3 Circles gospel video into their everyday ministry.
1. Event-Based Outreach: Creating Intentional Gospel Exposure
Community events often provide churches with their largest point of contact with people far from God. Block parties, festivals, sports camps, school-supply giveaways, and holiday outreaches draw families who may never attend a Sunday service. The challenge, however, is ensuring the gospel is clearly communicated and not merely implied.
One church planter, Moses Wilson, found a simple and effective way to address this challenge during a block party outreach. Rather than relying solely on individual conversations, which can vary depending on time, volunteer availability, and guest receptivity, his team embedded the gospel into the structure of the event itself.
Every guest was asked to register at the entrance using a simple online form. That form served multiple purposes. It acted as a waiver for bounce houses, entered guests into a gift card giveaway, and collected contact information for follow-up. Once a guest clicked “Submit,” the confirmation page automatically redirected them to the 3 Circles gospel presentation video on YouTube (also available in Spanish).
Volunteers encouraged guests to watch the video so they could understand why the church was hosting the event and the heart behind it. In addition, QR codes linking to the same video were posted throughout the event space—at the welcome area, tables, and activity stations—allowing guests to watch at any point during the event.
This approach ensured that gospel exposure was not dependent on chance. Guests encountered the gospel digitally while volunteers built relationships, answered questions, and engaged in meaningful conversations. For those who wanted to take the next step, a prayer tent staffed with volunteers provided a clear pathway for personal gospel conversations and prayer. Volunteers can also be outfitted with the 3 Circles wristband for easy access to the gospel.
Tracking gospel engagement did not require complex systems. Pastor Wilson simply checked the YouTube view count before and after the event. When paired with registration data and follow-up conversations, this gave his team a reasonable picture of how many people were exposed to the gospel and where next steps were needed.
For pastors and ministries planning community outreach, this model demonstrates how the 3 Circles gospel video can serve as a faithful gospel witness woven into the fabric of an event, not tacked on as an afterthought.
2. Sunday Morning and Church-Based Touchpoints: Reinforcing the Gospel for Guests
While special events create unique outreach opportunities, weekly church gatherings remain one of the most consistent points of gospel contact. Guests often attend worship services before they are ready to respond to a verbal invitation or engage in a personal conversation. The 3 Circles gospel video can serve as an accessible resource that allows guests to engage the gospel at their own pace.
Churches can integrate the video into existing guest pathways without disrupting the flow of Sunday worship. QR codes linking to the video can be placed on connection cards, printed in bulletins, or displayed on signage in common areas. Some churches choose to include the link in follow-up emails or texts sent to first-time guests later that day or during the week following their visit.
This approach reinforces the truth that the gospel is central to everything the church does, not only what is preached from the pulpit. It also provides clarity for guests who may hear gospel language on Sunday but need time to process what it means.
Pairing the QR code to the video with 3 Circles wristbands in a welcome bag for guests adds a tangible reminder. Wristbands serve as both a visual summary of the gospel and a conversation starter guests can take with them. Long after a service or event ends, the wristband and video link continue to invite reflection and dialogue.
For pastors, this creates a repeatable system. Every guest receives a consistent gospel presentation, while Sunday morning volunteers focus on hospitality, prayer, and relational connection.
3. Digital Evangelism: Extending the Gospel Beyond Physical Gatherings
In the digital age, gospel conversations are increasingly taking place through screens. Text messages, social media, websites, and email follow-ups now serve as front doors to the church. The 3 Circles gospel video fits naturally into this space, allowing churches to extend their evangelistic reach beyond physical gatherings.
Churches can embed the video on their websites, particularly on “Plan Your Visit” or “What We Believe” pages. Event registration confirmations can include a link to the video, just as Pastor Wilson’s team did. Social media bios, pinned posts, or outreach campaigns can also point people directly to the gospel.
For church members, the video becomes a simple tool they can share personally. Sending a link to a friend or family member often feels less intimidating than initiating a face-to-face conversation, yet it can open the door for follow-up discussions rooted in clarity and truth.
Digital evangelism does not replace personal evangelism; it supports it. The video establishes a shared reference point, helping believers and pastors alike follow up with confidence and consistency.
4. Training and Discipleship: Equipping Believers to Share the Gospel
One of the greatest strengths of the 3 Circles gospel presentation is its usefulness in training believers to articulate the gospel clearly. The video provides a baseline explanation that churches can use in evangelism training, small groups, and discipleship settings.
New believers can watch the video to better understand the gospel they have received and to learn how to share it with others. Seasoned believers can use it as a refresher that sharpens their confidence and clarity.
Churches may incorporate the video into membership classes, evangelism workshops, or leadership training. Pairing the video with 3 Circles wristbands or printed diagrams reinforces learning and evangelism through repetition and visual cues.
Pastor Wilson’s experience demonstrates how this training naturally flows into ongoing ministry. Following the block party, his church launched a Bible study, welcomed new families, and continued outreach through pickleball evenings to engage their community. The gospel was not confined to a single event but became a foundation for sustained discipleship and mission.
A Simple Tool with Lasting Impact
The 3 Circles gospel video is not a silver bullet, nor is it meant to replace personal gospel conversations. It is, however, a faithful and flexible tool churches can use to strengthen evangelism across multiple contexts.
Whether through event-based outreach, Sunday touchpoints, digital engagement, or training and discipleship, the video helps ensure the gospel is clearly communicated and consistently shared. When paired with prayerful planning, intentional follow-up, and simple tools like 3 Circles wristbands, it equips churches to do what Scripture calls every pastor and congregation to do: “Do the work of an evangelist” (2 Tim. 4:5, CSB).
For pastors seeking practical ways to mobilize their churches for evangelism, the 3 Circles gospel video offers a clear path forward—simple enough to implement, faithful to the gospel, and scalable for the mission God has entrusted to His church.
