1 Lesson 1: Introducing Conversational Evangelism 1
2 Purpose Introduce the concept of pre-evangelism Introduce/Survey the four roles we play. Introduce the concept of the 3D s. Explain how worldview causes the need for pre-evangelism. Steps to Fulfilling the Great Commission 2
3 Fulfilling the Great Commission 1. We must be fully committed. (obedience) No evangelism = no growth, no church, no Christianity. Ignoring the great commission is rebellion. 2. We must till the soil. (pre-evangelism) Don t assume the soil is good. Look for the condition of the soil (hard, rocks, thorns). What worldview are they wearing? Note: Sin must be seen as sinful. The Types of Soils Hard Soil: They do not understand the gospel, doctrines, information, or reality. Shallow Soil: They are scandalized, offended, or persecuted because of the gospel. Thorny Soil: The gospel costs them economically. Good Soil: Rooted, Rested, Ready, and Reaching 3
4 Fulfilling the Great Commission 2. The Biblical Mandate for Soil Tilling. These are the days when anything goes. (Judges 21:25) Judges 21:25 In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes. 4
5 Fulfilling the Great Commission 2. The Biblical Mandate for Soil Tilling. These are the days when anything goes. (Judges 21:25) What is truth? (John 18:38) John 18:37b-38 Everyone who is of the truth listens to my [Jesus ] voice. Pilate said to him, What is truth? 5
6 Fulfilling the Great Commission 2. The Biblical Mandate for Soil Tilling. These are the days when anything goes. (Judges 21:25) What is truth? (John 18:38) God has and still does turn people over to their reprobate mind. (Romans 1:28) Romans 1:28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. 6
7 Fulfilling the Great Commission 2. The Biblical Mandate for Soil Tilling. These are the days when anything goes. (Judges 21:25) What is truth? (John 18:38) God has and still does turn people over to their reprobate mind. (Romans 1:28) The modern church faces confusion. (Gal 1:6-9) Galatians 1:6, 8 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel... But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. 7
8 Fulfilling the Great Commission 2. The Biblical Mandate for Soil Tilling. These are the days when anything goes. (Judges 21:25) What is truth? (John 18:38) God has and still does turn people over to their reprobate mind. (Romans 1:28) The modern church faces confusion. (Gal 1:6-9) Understand the times and act. (1 Chron 12:32) 1 Chronicles 12:32 The men of Issachar, who were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do 8
9 Fulfilling the Great Commission 3. We must sow the seeds of the gospel. (evangelism) A majority of believers cannot in one sentence accurately explain the gospel. The gospel is: 1 Corinthians 15:1-5 9
10 Fulfilling the Great Commission 3. We must sow the seeds of the gospel. (evangelism) A majority of believers cannot in one sentence accurately explain the gospel. The gospel is: If Believers cannot explain the gospel, in what do they believe? Fulfilling the Great Commission 4. We must water and cultivate the ground (Discipleship). Hebrews 6:1a Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity Discipleship is not complete until the player becomes the coach. 5. We must produce a crop Others who will commit to the Great Commission. 10
11 Understanding the Great Confusion Worldviews as Barriers to the Gospel Understanding Worldviews 1. Worldviews are like eyeglasses for the mind. Filer how we understand information. Determine how we view the world. Everybody has a worldview They make sense of reality. 11
12 Where did I come from? What happens after I die? What is the meaning of life? Is there right and wrong? Should I pay my taxes? Understanding Worldviews 1. Worldviews are like eyeglasses for the mind. Filer how we understand information. Determine how we view the world. Everybody has a worldview They make sense of reality. We will focus on the Millennial Worldview(s). 12
13 Understanding Millennials Came of age in the millennium. Technology native. Community driven. Invested in social justice and causes. Often spiritual but anti-religious. Frequently postmodern and existential. Understanding Worldviews 1. Worldviews are like eyeglasses for the mind. 2. A person s worldview will dramatically affect the reception (or rejection) of the gospel. 3. Understanding worldviews makes us more effective in presenting the gospel. Enables us to connect with what rejects. Worldviews skew the heart and mind. 13
14 Understanding Worldviews 4. Ultimately accepting the gospel is a matter of will. Rejection is caused by misinformation/misunderstanding (mind). Rejection is caused by misperception (heart). Rejection is caused by desire (will). Conversational Evangelism only addresses the mind and heart. Survey of Conversational Evangelism 14
15 Conversational Evangelism The goal: to win our family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, children, grandchildren, parents, grandparents, cousins, uncles, etc. to Christ. The non-believer is a person, not a product. Respect the will and address the heart and mind. Earn the right to share the gospel. Till the soil so the gospel message may take root. We Play 4 Roles in Pre-Evangelism 15
16 The Role of Musician Listen carefully (John 1:19-20) Learn their story. Hear the sour notes. The Role of Artist Ask Questions. Clarify Beliefs. Remember the 3D s. Surface Doubt. Minimize Defensiveness. Create Desire. 16
17 The Role of the Archeologist Uncover Barriers Intellectual (mind) Emotional (heart) Volitional (will) Seven keys to uncovering barriers. Real vs. smoke screen. Real Issue. Emotional baggage. Questions. Biggest Barrier to Jesus. Motivation. Volitional factor. The Seven Keys 17
18 The Role of Builder Find common ground. Remember the goal: 1 Cor. 3:6; 9:22. 1 Corinthians 3:6; 9:22 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth to the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. 18
19 The Role of Builder Find common ground. Remember the goal: 1 Cor. 3:6; 9:22. Build a bridge with planks to the gospel. 19
