EVANGELISTIC METHODS
Use the “4 Spiritual Laws”.
This example uses the traditional format, but contextualizes the content.
Retell a Gospel story of Jesus healing shame, such as
Mark 5 (the demon-possessed man, dead girl, and bleeding women) or
Luke 15 (the Prodigal Son).
Study the Bible focusing on HonorShame, in either
salvation history or the
life of Jesus.
