How to Engage with Different Worldviews and Respond to Difficult Questions - Alexander Fink

Many Christians are very eager to share the good news and quote bible passages but then feel frustrated when the messages seem to fall flat. One reason might often be that we are using the gospel like an advertising flyer instead of an individual letter that should speak to a person’s life circumstances. Jesus usually starts from the person and shares the gospel differently with everyone. In this talk, we discover how we can understand people, think through their worldviews and life concepts, and communicate the gospel in an appropriate way. And we see that there is a biblical way to deal honestly, fairly, and effectively with difficult questions.
