The news service also reported that taping for the third season is already under way and will include episodes that are to be filmed abroad in an attempt to show the effectiveness of biblically-based evangelism across cultures.
Tools for Truth-Telling
The cross-cultural appeal of Cameron and Comfort's ministry is not only taking root through the television program but also through The Way of the Master School of Biblical Evangelism. Presently, more than 4,000 students from 19 countries are enrolled in the online school that consists of 101 comprehensive study lessons, more than 45 audio lessons, 50 cartoon lessons for children, forum and chat room discussions and bonus materials including books and CDs. The online program also offers graduation incentives to encourage completion of the program.
In addition to the TV program and school of evangelism, The Way of the Master ministry offers a number of evangelistic resources and Bible study tools to train Christians how to share a true understanding of salvation based on God's Law.
"People need to hear the Gospel," Cameron said. "That is why Jesus came -- to seek and save the lost. That is what we should be doing if we're going to be followers of Christ.
"That's why I've devoted myself to this ministry, The Way of the Master, which is teaching Christians how to more effectively share the Gospel with the lost and with the people that they love," he continued.
From Atheism to Christianity
Making a difference for God's Kingdom was once far removed from Cameron's life. "Basically, I grew up as an atheist and didn't go to church until I was about 17 years old," Cameron said.
It was then that a friend invited Cameron to church. He went and left with many questions about what he heard. "I didn't believe that God existed, and this pastor really got me thinking," Cameron explained.
In an attempt to answer his own questions, Cameron read a book titled, More Than A Carpenter, written by Josh McDowell.
"Then one day I was just driving in my car and pulled off to the side of the road and just prayed, 'Lord, if you are real, I want to know. If you're there, please show me because I don't want to die and find out you're real and I've been wrong and get shut out of heaven,' " Cameron explained. "It was the first time I had ever prayed."
Cameron began reading the Bible and going to church.
"I couldn't get enough of it," he said. "Something just completely captured my heart about the message of the Gospel. I felt convicted of my sin and needed God's forgiveness and wanted Him to change me."
