What will make your next-door neighbours consider the claims of Christ?
Traditionally, one style of evangelism has been popular. This is a style used by Paul: reason (dialogue), telling the story of Jesus and his bringing salvation for us. For a number of reasons, particularly related to the impressions that the bad lifestyles of some Christians are making on non-Christians, I believe it's important that we now investigate using another style of evangelism as well.
This is a style used by Jesus throughout his ministry, as well as by Peter, John and Paul. The Christian finds out the need that the non-Christian is most struggling with. By at least trying to meet that need the Christian can earn the right to share their faith and the non-Christian's response then may well be faith and repentance.+
