Paul's ministry in Athens revealed a shift in the wat he preached to Gentile audiences compared to Jewish audiences. When speaking to the Jews, Paul referenced the Old Testament, Gentiles, like those in his Athens audience, would not relate to the Old Testament, so Paul used Greek elements to create common ground. His example offers some great insights for our generation, as we try to reach individuals who are unchurched and really don't connect with a lot of our religious heritage, language, and traditions.
