  1. Seminar on Gospel Centred Proclamation Friday afternoon 28 February 2014

  2. What do we mean by Proclamation? • Presence evangelism – “how many are helped?” • Proclamation evangelism – “how many hear and understand the gospel?” • Persuasion evangelism – “how many become active followers of Jesus, fully integrated into the Body of Christ?” • We tend to be good at Presence and bad at relating presence evangelism to other forms of evangelism.

  3. Keys to proclamation • Receptivity to the gospel rises in direct proportion to the number of times people hear “God talk”. • People hear more clearly when they are in relationships with people they trust. • Hearing is a two way communication process – people need to be able to speak as well as listen.

  4. Building relationships • Open set, closed set, fuzzy set • Gifted evangelists • Offering a witness • Telling our story • Cross cultural barriers

  5. Evangelistic tools • The Engel scale • Alpha (strengths and weaknesses) • Pre-Alpha tools – Puzzling Questions • Pre Alpha course (Puzzling Questions) • Who am I? • What is God like? • How can I be happy? • Why is there suffering in the world? • What happens after death? • What is the spiritual realm and how does it affect my life? • Initial contact – Table Talk
