We have to engage with God first. We can not lead anyone to Christ. It is only through the Holy Spirit prompting them and leading our words will someone come to know Jesus as their savior.

I appreciate the emphasis that this video placed on drawing near and meeting people where they are at. I think similarly attentive listening and staying engaged in the dialogue is huge! I have the opportunity to minister to college students, and within this community how I communicate and listen to them is enormous in the effectiveness with which that it is the I’m able to share the Gospel with them. If they know I truly care about them, then they’ll be more willing to engage in the more challenging questions towards following Jesus.
As I think towards the future, I’m able to grow in how I’m remaining engaged in the actual dialogue with them. Sometimes I can come in with an agenda and a gameplay and not take the appropriate reactions towards something they say, in an effort to simply get to the points that I wanted to get through. Whereas being challenged to grow In how I’m engaging in the dialogue can challenge me to more effectively respond to what they’re actually saying in the moment.

Yes, I pray for Gods help when doing it. In the future I need to avoid unconscious bias

I have told them about Christ. It’s all about being led by the Holy Spirit through scripture

Yes! I listen to whom I’m talking with and hear there heart then. I use the four Fca talked about when it comes to salvation walk through that person I’m speaking with about each item. Fca does a great job of preparing us staff missionaries to communicate with the people around us to talk about who Jesus is.
