1 | Witnessing: What is your style? | John 1:7 | Reformer Joe | 22032 | ||
This is just about the same way that the book "How to Become a Contagious Christian" characterizes the different syles: confrontational, invitational, intellectual, and testimonial. They add another couple, evangelism through serving and one other that doesn't pop into my head at this moment I am most comfortable with the intellectual approach, putting the Christian worldview out there in the public square as the standard of truth. I do employ the serving side as well in my missionary work with the homeless as well. The testimonial comes into play sometimes as well, but only subsidiary to the intellectual approach. Probably all of my contact with Mormons which leaves me a little cold to the testimonial approach, actually... --Joe! |

Greetings Joe! Actually, I've never read that book! (How to Become a Contagious Christian) It sounds like a "must read" though.. Yes, my friend, from viewing and reading your thought-provoking and intellectual posts on this Forum that provide much depth and Biblical support, I would agree that you are indeed someone who is more inclined towards an "Intellectual" approach of witnessing! Granted, we are not limited to any ONE of the methods of approach mentioned and we can use any of the three, but I could understand your reaction to witnessing to Mormons. :-) I usually use a "reasoning" approach as well when speaking with Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses. Praise the Lord for those who can witness through "reasoning" like yourself! Keep up the good work on the Forum, Joe! It does not go unnoticed. :-) - Nolan |
