Pearls Before Swine And The New Evangelization

[Thy Geekdom Come]

Budge was my inspiration for most of these. Y'all know what I'm talking about more than most. Did I miss any?

Good post. :)  

 

I think an important concept that goes with your list is making sure you and your opponent have the same purpose in mind.  Things go pretty poorly if one person is trying to win and the other is trying to understand.  It also changes the kinds of techniques you use.  You don't have to pull punches when both people are out to win, and things take on a much more personal tone when you're out to understand.  People are much more willing to change their mind if you're both out to explore what it means to encounter Jesus, but you'll have to blow their argument out of the water if they're just out to win an argument.

Me, too. I was disappointed.
