Jesus and the Healing of Our Sin-Sickness: Evangelism in the Restorative, Healing Atonement Paradigm

This is a training module in four sessions, and is our Evangelism 101 Class explaining Jesus in the restorative, healing atonement paradigm. We believe it helps us present the most beautiful and meaningful portrait of Jesus possible. Learn to listen well, and ask proactive, thoughtful questions.

Session 1 is a study of Jesus cleansing his human nature in the baptism and wilderness story, from Matthew 3:13 - 4:11. This study anchors the paradigm, and helps set good expectations: Jesus partners with us to retell our stories, just as he retold the stories of David, Israel, and Adam and Eve.

Session 2 highlights the conversations you can have about human nature needing healing.

Session 3 explores the conversations you can have about good vs. evil.

Session 4 shows the conversations you can have about the character of God compared with other gods.
