Follow-up has always been a creative partnership between Study Helpers, missionaries, local evangelists and WBS staff. However, the biggest partner in our Follow-up has been God! We never miss an opportunity to pray for our Students as we seek to assist them in being baptized and in finding their place in the body of Christ.
Online Follow-up has been a blessing as we have crafted a digital means of correspondence on our website and smartphone apps. Just like with Postal, we are ever trying to build a network of volunteers who can help.

In this episode of One More Chapter, Brian Rex Davis and his co-hosts Noah and Bryson Continue their discussion of the concepts of purpose, principle, and precedent and how they help bridge the gap between meaning and application. They classify different types of biblical precedents—such as accepting both the practice and principle of baptism, retaining principles while adapting culturally bound practices like greetings or modesty, and rejecting both when Scripture indicates—and illustrate necessary inference through Peter’s experience with Cornelius in Acts 10–11.
