Even still, I lacked the confidence \u2018to give an answer to everyone for the hope I have in Christ.\u2019 Fears of being ejected, getting into arguments, or failing to be persuasive kept me from engaging in spiritual conversations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In a recent Faculty Commons\u2019 small group study of the book&nbsp;<em>God Space<\/em>&nbsp;by Doug Pollock, I was struck with many \u201caha moments\u201d that have helped me reframe the pressure to \u201cgive an answer.\u201d In Chapter 5 of&nbsp;<em>God Space<\/em>, Mr. Pollock describes the practice of Spirit-led listening for effective evangelism, which requires a quieted spirit, ready to listen first before providing a response.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Instead of readily providing answers, the book encourages us to create \u201cGod Space\u201d through thoughtful questions that allow us to build a deeper connection with the other person. I realized my mind was so focused on giving an answer, I often didn\u2019t really see or hear the person in front of me. Instead, I was focused on finding just the right opportunity to deliver the Four Spiritual Laws, or pull out my Bible for them and read John 3:16, or walk them down the Roman\u2019s Road. But often, the fears mentioned above kept me silent.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\u201cI\u2019m willing to bet the farm that in our postmodern Christian society, the most important evangelistic skill is listening.\u201d&nbsp;<\/blockquote><p>Reading this quote from Todd Hunter, I felt a twinge of guilt, followed by a tremendous sense of excitement. I could do that!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Instead of fretting about just the right moment and just the right words to share the gospel, I could learn to ask good questions that show I care and that I\u2019m listening. It is in that moment of seeking first to understand before seeking to be heard or understood that \u201cGod Space\u201d is created.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>From my own life experiences, I know this to be true. By asking thoughtful questions and&nbsp;<u>really<\/u>&nbsp;listening to the other person, I am more relaxed, and a door is opened to trust and relationship. It is in the context of trusting relationships that people share struggles and deeper questions with hearts that are open.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After a time of asking, \u201cI am wondering if\u2026\u201d or, \u201cTell me more about\u2026\u201d and listening with respect and empathy (rather than planning my response), connections are created. It is in that God Space that I can share the reason for the hope I have in the Good News of Jesus Christ.&nbsp;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-86a1f25 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"86a1f25\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-dc6feaf\" data-id=\"dc6feaf\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c051f7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3c051f7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Pat Cwiek<\/strong><br \/>Health Professions<br \/>Central Michigan University<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Christians, we are told, \u201cAlways be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.\u201d (I Peter 3:15) I\u2019m learning that I need to be prepared to give a question as well.
