Engaging the Holy Bible to allow it to change you and other

We will discuss a three-step process that will help you engage the text. You may either be a preacher or someone wanting more tools to grow in your devotional life.

Step 1 Prayer- Ask the Lord to show which text God wants you to use.

Step 2 Illustration-   Everyone getting into the festival needs a ticket to get in. Use the illustration and take the text through this four-part grid.

• Creation – Fall- Redemption –Response

Step 3 Go- Preach the text until the Lord is done with you.   

We will also discuss the three process of engaging in open-air preaching.

Step 1- Engaging preaching will disengage just for a moment to call out to people in order to re-engage to reach more people. Why do we do this? In order to allow someone’s worldview to be exposed in hopes that more will be drawn in that believe the same.  

Step 2- Announce what they believe to the people walking by in order to get them involved.

Step 3- Take the people who have gathered through the text the Lord has given you.

• Creation – Fall- Redemption –Response
