As you think about spreading a movement, the very first step is to seek God for where He would have you go.<\/p>

You need a clear picture of where God is calling you to go. Is it all the universities in one city, in a region, in a people group, or in the entire nation? However, keep in mind that launching a movement can be as simple as challenging your friends in places with no movements to start one.<\/p>

Look at Matthew 9:35-38 and Psalm 110:1-3. Take extended time in prayer and fasting. Begin to pray now that God will raise up Key Volunteers in every university in your area of influence.<\/p>

Use the Internet and other sources of information to help answer these questions:<\/p>

1. Where are the schools and universities in your area? In which cities? What are the names of the campuses?<\/p>

2. What are the students like? What are their needs? Are there any unique affinities and people groups, religious groupings, etc.?<\/p>

3. Where do we have ministries now? Where do we not have ministries?<\/p>

4. Where do other organizations\/churches with a shared vision have ministries?<\/p>

5. How can you evaluate and prioritize which universities to consider?<\/p>

6. How many cities and total locations are you called to be responsible for? How many universities? How many students?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Before you go visit the new area, explore and learn all you can about the university.<\/p>

Also remember to think through all the people you know in areas with no movement. Look through your friends on social media. Think through contacts you may have in churches or other organizations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
