Note
Unlike many AY Honors, this honor does not have “knowledge” requirements categorized separately from action requirements. Rather, the requirements for honor completion are listed categorically.

Instructor required

Instructor Requirements
  • A. An adult who has preaching skills OR

  • C. Your pastor

1. Spiritual Preparation

a. What is intentional spiritual preparation?

b. Discuss with your instructor the role of spiritual preparation in evangelism.

2. Seed sowing

a. What is seed sowing?

Seed sowing is an activity that opens the way for evangelism. It is somewhat secular in nature, and thus non-threatening to people who are anti-religion. People who would not normally attend an evangelistic program may well attend one of these activities. If successful, a seed-sowing activity leaves a positive impression about the church on the participants and establishes a level of trust. These activities are primarily about creating Friendships where conversation may turn to spiritual matters at the appropriate time.

b. Name 5 examples of “seed sowing”

  • Depression Seminar
  • Personal Finance Seminar
  • Computer classes
  • Healthy Lifestyle Management classes
  • Auto Mechanic class
  • Child care

c. Participate in at least one “seed sowing” event

Though this honor requires you to participate in only one seed sowing event, it is good practice to host two seed sowing events between each evangelism series.
