Session 9: Paradigm Shift -> How to do evangelism? (PART 1) (Ps Lawrence Khong)

1. Map – Do I have a map?
People come to Christ through a process of change:










2. Strategy – How do we get there?
The cell group church believes in:

Community Evangelism
- The community an individual is in affects one’s decision. Therefore, it is crucial to provide the community to the individuals.
- Jesus did not just die for one individual , Jesus died for a church – a community of us!

Relationship Evangelism
- Oikos = you spend at least 1 accumulated hour per week with them on a one to one basis. Because nobody will be comfortable to trust and to follow a stranger (You, Jesus, etc.) recommended by another stranger.

- PERFECT 10 PRAYER STRATEGY = People engaged regularly for effective community transformation, Zechariah 8:23

Servant Evangelism
- H E A R T evangelism = when I serve (a need), I touch hearts.

- Steve Sjogren, 1993, Conspiracy of kindness – “If the heart is the centre of focus of man’s personal life, the spring of all his desires, why not we aim for the heart right at the beginning? … The exciting thing is that the heart is not unreachable … People’s hearts are most easily touched by acts of kindness.”

- Show God’s love in a practical way, with no strings attached.

- DO IT CONSISTENTLY, because you really love, because God first loved you.

- If not, come on, then you ARE doing it with strings attached.
