“Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Jesus cast vision. He painted mental images of what the disciples could be like in the future if they trusted God to use them.
We, as Key Volunteers, meet students each day who are just like those disciples – available, willing to learn, willing to serve God, but not knowing how – wanting to be part of something that will capture their hearts. We need to cast vision to them, just as Jesus did – not just give them activities to do.
Most vision casting is very individual – built on someone’s personal experiences. Following, however, is a way to cast vision that is from the Bible, so it’s transferable – anyone can do it.
You are looking for students who are FATO – Faithful, Available, Teachable, and Obedient. By the end of your time meeting with someone, even if it is your first time, their responses will give you an idea if they are FATO.
