Briefly describe your salvation experience. *

The intent of the following 3 questions is to reduce the risk of abuse in any form on the JesusCares/Groundwire response mechanism. It is designed to protect those to whom we minister, as well as to uphold the personal dignity of all who would be involved in serving them.
Have you ever been accused of child abuse or a crime involving actual or attempted sexual molestation of a minor? *
If yes, please explain.
Have you ever been convicted by any court of a felony? *
If yes, please explain.
Have you been arrested for an offense for which a trial is pending? *
If yes, please explain.
If you answered yes to any of the previous 3 questions, please indicate the date and place of arrest and a brief explanation of the offense and sentence imposed. If you were convicted under another name, list the other name as well.
Please give an example of how you would explain the message of salvation. Pretend you are talking to an unbeliever who has never received Jesus as my Lord and savior. Tell me in your own words who Jesus is and why He came to earth and why that matters to me and my life. *
Time Commitment: Online Coaches commit to serving an average of 2-4 hours per week, and we ask that you apply that to your training commitment as soon as you learn you are accepted into the Groundwire Training Academy. *
Required

As we engage with seekers, coaches do not offer specific prophecies or words from the Lord for the chatter (outside of direct quotes from Scripture). We do not interpret dreams or make promises for God that He has not made in Scripture. We will not introduce issues of demonic deliverance into the chat, and if the chatter brings it up, we encourage them to speak with a pastor in their community to work through that. Do you agree to operate within these boundaries?
