Tactics: A Game Plan for Discussing Your Christian Convictions

A must read for every Christian.
We, as Christians, are called to be Christ ambassdors. This book tackles the topic of how to have great conversations about the truth, especially about the Christian Faith. The book presents wonderful tactics to use in your everyday encounters with deep conversations. The book does not focus on arguments, however it gives plenty examples in which ideas and arguments are used.
This book open up my mind to think more rationally about everthing, and reduced my fear of being unprepared in conversations with unbelievers, or opposants. The way in which we should have good conversations is the diplomatic way, and not the "all or nothing approach".
I will write down some tactics summary.
1. Ask Questions. Begin by asking questions in order to clearly understand what the interlocutor is saying and gather as much information as possible. By asking questions you are in control of the conversation "in the driver seat". Asking questions is the most easy part that you can do and with at little as possible exposure.
2. Find the logic mistakes in the interlocutor affirmations. It's very easy when you look critically to a proposition and find if it's flawed by checking it against some usual logic mistakes that people often do and they are not aware of their poor logic.
3. Be calm, kind and friendly in every conversation, even with hostile opponents.
3. Having discussions with people that have other concepts than you is a pretty good way to test your position against the best objections and adapt your arguments and your view.
4. Seek the truth always. If you are on the truth side you shouldn't be afraid. Be humble and recognize that you could be wrong.
5. Do not be burdened by measuring the results( nr.of people that get saved or heard the gospel), instead you should only take the responsability of "putting a rock in the shoe" . You should understant that you should plant a seed and God will do the rest. Even a single question can be a seed that troubles a soul.
6. Be prepared. It is better to sweat in the training field than bleed on the war scene. Learn the Bible very well, have courage, take advantage of all the opportunities.
