How to Evangelize: 10 Ways to Share Your Faith

Part 1 

Incarnational apologetics may impact the way evangelism is taught and acted out in daily life considering that one is expected to not only seek to reflect on the basic tenets taught through the Bible but one should also seek to actualize on the belief system. The adoption of incarnational apologetics seeks to create a new structure of understanding on the fact that evangelism is not all about having to show one’s understanding of the teachings in the Bible. Instead, the approach also seeks to ensure that one is able to embrace the belief system as part of actualizing the teachings. Personally, I tend to balance between "incarnational" and "informational" approaches to evangelism by not only wanting to show my expressed understanding of the Bible but also seek to lead a life that would project me as a Christian, which is part of my overall faith.

In my personal balance between these two approaches, I would argue on the basis that indeed there is a significant connection between "incarnational" and "informational" approaches to evangelism. The connection can be seen from the fact that the informational approach builds on a progressive understanding of how I ought to express my Christianity based on my actions. Consequently, that means that I always find myself in a position where I am expected to make quantified decisions or take actions that reflect on the informational approach, which would help define my understanding of incarnational apologetics. Often, I find it hard in trying to connect to people on an "incarnational" level considering that a majority of the people fail to recognize the connection that my actions have towards my faith. In most cases, people would often connect with me on an informational level while failing to understand the value placed on my actions as a way of defining my faith.

In the event that Lindsay was one of my neighbors, I would seek to reach her with the Gospel from a rather personal level, which would involve having to provoke her understanding of unitarianism and universalism. I would seek to engage her in a discussion focusing on her connection to spirituality with the view that this would help develop a better understanding of her spiritual beliefs. From my understanding of the interview, I must point to the fact that Lindsay tends to hold a specific level of spiritual beliefs regardless of the fact that they do not reflect on the true understanding of religion. That means that my interaction with her would be directed towards realigning her beliefs in a bid to creating a position from where she is able to master the basic truth.

My approach would not be solely incarnational but I would also use the informational approach as a key tool through which to enhance her generalized understanding of what is right and wrong with regard to her understanding of religion. In the informational approach, I will not only seek to use scriptures but would also focus on the use of a wide array of scientific material that reflect on the credibility of the resurrection account. That means that I will seek to engage her within her level of understanding with the focus being towards bringing out a connection with what she intends to reflect upon. The discussions that I build with her will be of great value towards showing her the true path to Christianity with the aim being towards building on her spiritual intellect.
