APPLY YOURSELF TO THE FIELD MINISTRY, May 12-18, 2025, Start conversations: FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. (Making disciples: a labor of love, Lesson 2 point 5). Prepared Assignment.

Start conversations (3 mins.) FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE. Start by talking about a current topic, but then show the person what the Bible says about a topic that interests them more (lmd lesson 2 point 5).

Setting: While preaching from house to house, the publisher adapts his message when a woman expresses her concern about moral decay and shows him what the Bible says about moral values.

Publisher: Good morning, my name is [Name] and I am talking to the neighbors about an issue that concerns them. Many have mentioned the recent earthquakes in the country and the fear of a strong earthquake. What do you think?

Assistant: Yes, the tremors are worrying, but, to be honest, what alarms me most is the moral decline these days.

Publisher: You are right, the moral crisis is very alarming. What things worry you most about this decline?

Assistant: All. I see families breaking up due to infidelity, neighbors fighting, and incredible dishonesty. Yesterday I left a bag at the door for a moment to look for something at home, and when I came out, it was gone.

Publisher: I'm so sorry about what happened to your bag, it must be frustrating. I understand why you are so concerned about the lack of values. This shows us that human-created moral codes are fragile, right? We need a higher source of values.

Assistant: Completely. The world is going from bad to worse.

Publisher: That is why our Creator left us a clear guide in his Word. May I read you a Bible text that talks about the qualities He values?

Galatians 5:22, 23 says, "On the other hand, the fruit of the spirit is love, happiness, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control. There is no law against those things." These are the qualities that God wants us to cultivate.

Assistant: It would be wonderful if we all practiced those qualities.

Publisher: Exact! The best values ​​come from our Creator, and the Bible promises that in the future the entire Earth will put them into practice. If you'd like, I can bring you a post next week that talks more about these moral standards and what God will do. What do you think?

Assistant: Yes I'd like to. Bring it to me, please.

Publisher: Perfect, I'll be back next week to chat more. Thank you for your time. Have a nice day.

Assistant: Thanks, see you soon!

Final conclusion:

This example perfectly meets point five of lesson 2, since the publisher adapted by changing the subject with empathy and naturalness, adjusting the conversation to the lady's main concern.
