We continue our workshop of encouragement and direction in being more intentional in our connections, relationships, and evangelism. Here Jeremiah digs into how to avoid insider language without losing the richness of meaning–how to communicate the glory of the gospel in a way outsiders can relate.
(Note: There are a few glitches in the video where the video freezes for a second and the audio continues. That is in the original not your device and they never last long).
Questions For Thought or Discussion:
1. Are there any words you use when talking about your Christianity around unbelievers that you think are obvious but they wouldn’t know what they mean? How could you define them or make them clearer? Sin/Sinner? Salvation? Relationship with God? What other terms do we take for granted that outsiders wouldn’t know what we mean?
2. Do you have a friend who is not a believer that you could talk to about this to get a real perspective from an outsider and to have a meaningful conversation about spiritual things?
