*THE JESUS MODEL FOR MINISTRY*
*Jesus’ Strategy for Fish**ing for Men - Part Two*
*Mark 1:17*
*INTRODUCTION*
*/The Jesus Model for Ministry/*
*Every member a minister*
*Ministry is directed to unbelievers.*
*/Jesus uses the Fishing Analogy on Purpose/*
*/He wants to teach us some Important Principles/*
*/We must.../*
*Know what you are fishing for*
* *
*Learn to think like a fish*
*Go where the fish are biting*
*Catch fish on their terms*
*Use more than one hook*
*Fish for the kind of fish you can catch best*
\\ *1A.
CATCH FISH ON THEIR TERMS*
*/Serious fishermen are willing to be uncomfortable in order to catch fish - How serious are you about fulfilling the Great Commission?/*
*/1 Corinthians 9:20‑22/*
/(1 Corinthians 9:22 LB) “Whatever a person is like, I try to find common ground with him so that he will let me tell him about Christ and let Christ save him.”/
*/1B.
The Needs of the Unchurched Will Determine Our Programs/*
/(Mark 2:17) "On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.""/
/(Matthew 10:8) "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons.
Freely you have received, freely give."/
*Anyone can be won to Christ if you discover - The Key to his heart - His felt needs, hurts, interests*
*Before you can share the Good News, you must first get their attention*
*Our church will never grow beyond its capacity to meet needs*
*The primary felt needs today are emotional and relational*
\\ */2B.
The Hant-ups of the Unchurched Will Determine Our Strategy/*
/(Luke 16:8) ""... the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light."/
*/3B.
The Culture of the Unchurched Will Determine Our Style/*
/(Luke 10:8) ""When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is set before you."/
*Who are we trying to impress?*
*/4B.
The Population of the Unchurched Will Determine Our Goals/*
*We do not grow to be bigger*
* *
*We grow because people need the Lord!*
\\ *2A.
USE MORE THAN ONE HOOK*
*/Trotline Fishing/*
*We live in a world full of Choices*
Over 50 TV channels
200 new grocery items each week
300 new magazines~/year
*We must offer choices as long as we do not compromise the Message*
*Saturation Evangelism (Falwell)*
Using every available means to reach every available person at every available time!
*/Why We Only Use One Hook/*
*We ask the wrong question*
How much will it cost?
*We need to ask the right question*
Who will it reach?
*/We Must Count the Cost/*
*Money spent on evangelism is never and expense, it is always an investment*
*People give to vision, not to need*
*When you spend nickels and dimes on evangelism you get nickel and dime results*
*The coins are always in the mouth of the fish (Matthew 17:27)*
*“God’s work done God’s way will never lack God’s support.”

\\ *3A.
FISH FOR THE KIND OF FISH YOU CAN CATCH BEST*
*/Go After Those You are Most Likely to Reach/*
*Andrew - Peter; Matthew - Tax Collectors*
*/Determine What Kind of People are Already Attending Our Church/*
*Median Age = 34*
*Basically Middle Class*
*/Rules of Thumb/*
*I can reach people that I can relate to.*
*You attract what you AREnot what you WANT.*
*/Good News - We Already Reflect Our Community!!!/*
\\ *ACTION POINTS*
*/1.
Who do YOU have in mind when you plan YOUR ministries?/*
*/2.
Are you willing to be uncomfortable, to change in order to catch fish?/*
*/3.
How can we get more “hooks” in the water?
How does God want to use you to make this happen?
What new ministry is God leading you to begin?/*
*/4.
Are you committed to using every available means to reach every available person at every available time?
If not ask God to speak to your heart about this./*
*/5.
If money has been an issue in your attitude toward evangelism ask God to make people the issue./*
*/ /*
*/6.
Commit to go after the kind of fish you identify with, don’t get hung up on those you cannot reach./*
