Pathfinders is a Christ-centered discipleship movement designed to help believers find God’s path, and then lead others along it. We train, equip, and empower everyday Christians to grow in faith, share the Gospel, and build small groups that multiply into new groups across homes, communities, workplaces, and online spaces.
Evangelist Joseph Butcher is a passionate disciple-maker with a calling to teach salvation, spiritual growth, and the simplicity of the Gospel. God brought him through deep valleys, loss, struggle, and rebuilding, and from that journey emerged a bold evangelistic fire aimed at helping others find hope in Jesus Christ.
Joseph has walked through seasons that broke him, shaped him, and ultimately prepared him for ministry. God raised him out of hardship and pain, not just to restore him, but to use his story to reach others. His passion is simple: lead people to Jesus, help them grow, and empower them to lead others.
Joseph believes the days we’re living in demand believers who are not just church attenders, but disciples who can stand firm, share truth, and walk closely with the Holy Spirit.
This course is designed for small home-based groups who want to walk closer with Jesus, understand salvation deeply, grow in spiritual maturity, and learn how to lead others to Christ.
Each week builds on the last—starting with salvation and repentance, and moving into identity, growth, spiritual battle, and living on mission with Jesus.
Salvation as God’s free gift and the beginning of a lifelong journey with Jesus—not just a prayer or a ceremony.
Moving from regret to true repentance—turning from sin and running toward God’s mercy and refreshing.
Discovering who you really are now that you are in Christ—no longer defined by your past, but by His work.
Meeting the Person of the Holy Spirit and learning how He teaches, leads, and empowers believers daily.
Understanding the unseen battle, the armor of God, and how to stand firm in Christ’s strength.
Seeing how God patiently shapes us over time, renewing our minds and growing us in holiness.
Learning to lean on God’s character and promises when life doesn’t make sense and the path isn’t clear.
Seeing obedience as a response of love, not legalism—and saying “yes” even when it costs something.
Why we can’t walk this journey alone, and how biblical community strengthens and protects us.
Discovering that you are God’s workmanship, created for good works He prepared in advance for you.
Learning to tell your story, rely on the Holy Spirit, and point people to Jesus with love and courage.
Running the race with perseverance, keeping your eyes on Jesus, and staying faithful to the end.

God meets you where you are, not where you think you should be. Hope begins when we dare to believe He still wants us.
Your history does not define your destiny. In Christ, you are a new creation with a new name and a new future.
Recovery needs more than willpower; it needs a Savior. Jesus offers real life, forgiveness, and a new heart.
God cares about the hurts others don’t see. He draws near to the brokenhearted and begins healing from the inside out.
Addictions and destructive patterns are chains—but in Christ, real freedom is possible.
God gives strength for today—not for all our tomorrows at once. Recovery is lived one step at a time.
God has a plan for your life and designed you for healthy community, not isolation.
Through Jesus, you can have a new start, a clean slate, and a new identity as a child of God.
A 6-week outreach track designed for ministering to people who are homeless, on the streets, or staying in shelters. Simple, bold, compassionate messages that say: you are not invisible, and Jesus has not forgotten you.
Each week includes a short street message, a key Scripture, reflection questions, a sample prayer, and a simple handout you can print. These are built to be used outside, in shelters, or anywhere people gather with nothing but a bench, a curb, or a doorway.
Before you dive into the weekly guides, download these tools to help you lead simple, powerful outreach moments on the streets, in shelters, and in halfway homes.
These are 1-page printable guides (PDF). Print them, fold them, and carry them with you for simple, Jesus-centered conversations on the street.
You are not invisible. God sees every tear, every night, every fear — and He still wants you.
The world may walk past you, but Heaven still calls you valuable and worth rescuing.
Jesus knows pain, rejection, and being “on the outside.” He is closer than you think.
The story isn’t over. God still writes new chapters for people the world has already counted out.
The storm may not stop tonight, but Jesus can stand in it with you and speak peace to your heart.
Even at the end of the line, Jesus remembers those the world has thrown away.
