“A Model for Effective Evangelism The “Andrew model” of faith-sharing and evangelism is contained within this story in the first chapter of the Gospel of John. It might be described this way: • Spend time with Jesus because you can’t share what you don’t know. • Share with your network of relationships: in this case, his brother, Simon. • Share with “I” messages: Andrew said, “We [I] have found the Messiah” (John 1:41). • Invite your friend/neighbor/colleague to meet Jesus. • Leave the results up to Jesus because he is the one who saves and transforms.”

“Main describes an active awareness by citing the old Haitian proverb, "We see from where we stand." Main explains that when we change the places we stand, "our perceptions of the world will be changed and challenged.”
