Contribute And Increase Model Of Evangelism

Decent Essays
Evangelism is the spreading of gospel through public preaching and personal witness. We will accomplish the goal of sharing the gospel through Dustin Willis’ Identify, Invest, Invite, and Increase model. All evangelism is entirely subject to the will and guidance of the Holy Spirit. All attendees of Campus Church will be highly encouraged to evangelize through their words and actions in every day life.

    Sidra Zimmerman Ministry Project

 The People and the Situation As was first mentioned in my ministry group project proposal, the group I chose was my own small group. When the project first started, it consisted of roughly 10 men and women, most members of my Southern Baptist church who meet weekly to suss through the week’s sermon together. Interestingly enough, most of us had been raised in some semblance of a Christian home, though our experience within that “Christian” community varied.…

    As Rebecca Manley Pippert says, “Our message is not that we have it all together. Our message is that we know the one who does.” Therefore, evangelism is displaying love for those whom Jesus loves, identifying with them, and pursuing them with the gospel. Furthermore, one’s message and ministry to the lost is not that which has the power to save them.…

    Part One- What were the circumstances surrounding your servant evangelism encounters? I was on an EMS call to a scene of a paraplegic man who wanted to be transported to the hospital to look at a sore that he had. When I arrived on the scene the patient was found lying on the floor shaking because he was so high on drugs. There was drug paraphernalia all over his house and the patient admitted to being on crystal meth at the time that I was there.…

    The leaders encourage students to question and explore their faith and ultimately transform into Christians with an intimate relationship with God. Discourse communities have mechanisms of intercommunication and use these as ways to provide information and feedback (Swales 471-472). Journey uses email, text messaging, social media, and a website to communicate with members. The pastor informs members of all meetings through these means of communication and asks for questions and feedback about sermons. The group uses these different genres of communication to provide different types of information.…

    After rereading Tina Housers’ book and identified which principles were my strengths and my weaknesses, I took the time to carefully think over and pray about these four principles. The principles in the book that I found to be strengths of mine included: laughs and participates as a team player. The two principles I found in the book that I need to improve on were; pointing others to Jesus and administrates meetings efficiently. The first strength that I believe will help me once I begin my ministry is laughs. This is strength of mine because I work best whenever I am able to do work but have fun doing it at the same time.…

    Non-Evangelistic Attitude

    Striking to me, was the non-evangelistic view upon which the Muslim faith operates. When leaving the mosque, I was amazed by the fact that no one asked for my name or mailing address to send further information. The people had been welcoming and hospitable without hinting at, or attempting to, persuade or convert me to their faith. Significantly, I discovered through the Imam and the Quran that Islam instructs conversions to be left to Allah, as illustrated in the scripture, “Let there be no force (or compulsion) in religion,” (Quran 2:256), and “It is true that you will not be able to guide everyone whom you love; but Allah guides those whom He will. And He knows best those who receive guidance,” (Quran 28:56).…

    Support Group Observation

    In attempt to develop range in my observation of support groups, I once again found myself returning to an old stomping ground. Throughout my years in high school, I dedicated several hours a week to my local church in a growth group for high school girls. Although I currently experience mixed emotions with religion, I recalled how influential it was during my teenaged years to have such support, convincing me to return to observe a group to identify ways in why it was so helpful for me during difficult moments in my life. Luckily, my previous growth group leader was still leading groups and graciously accepted my request to be a guest that following week. Meeting once a week, the purpose of these groups was to discuss the Bible and life issues, but based on personal experience, these groups offered much more than a few life lectures.…

    Good work on your post! I really liked that your take on the matter was very practical. Because most couples, even Christians couples would argue from the stance of practicality and logic. While you are responding in spiritual practicality. I was delighted when you made the point that "as believers we must be confident in the Biblical position on the matter."…

    The destiny of the unevangelized is an apologetic problem because it can be used as an objection to God’s existence. It seems as though an all-loving God would desire that all people be saved, and that this would require Him to provide all people with the opportunity to be saved. Christians argue that salvation requires hearing and faithfully responding to the Gospel, yet some never get the opportunity to do so. This would suggest that either God doesn’t desire all to be saved, which seems contradictory to His all-loving nature, or He doesn’t exist. I think that post-mortem evangelization is the best explanation to this problem because it seems like a much stronger and more practical version of the “universal opportunity” argument.…

    Why is it that as our world is globalizing: sports, businesses, markets, and technology are the first to come to mind? Yes, all of these things are crucial in the globalized society that has emerged today. However, we take for granted the cultures, languages, and even religions that spread into a global era of their own. These so commonly forgotten parts our past relate back to how our everyday lives came to be. Religion is an aspect of most peoples’ lives; there are communities of the same faith across a multitude of borders.…

    Gordon’s purpose in writing The Master Plan of Evangelism was to examine the evangelism principles used by Jesus Christ (called “The Master” by Dr. Gordon in the book) during the days of His flesh. Dr. Coleman emphasizes the fact that his purpose was not to study and write about the methods used by Jesus but rather the principles which governed the methods. The Gospel accounts of Jesus’ evangelistic ministry are the single source used by Dr. Coleman in this volume. Jesus’ plan while He walked the earth was the focused mission of the salvation of the world.…

    Relationships that we have with people can greatly influence who we are, the decisions that we make as leaders, and the vi-sions that we have for the church body. By nurturing relationships with individuals and teams I can display my passion for God through conversations, my work, and my service to others. I can use my ability of connectedness to help people discover their identity in Christ, and break through the silos of people-groups or church departments. In ministry the ability to adapt is essential.…
