Key Bible Verse: Jesus called out to them, "Come, be my disciples, and I will show you how to fish for people!" (Matthew 4:19). Bonus Reading: John 1:35–51

In order to come to faith in Christ, remember that: Men need to ask questions. You've got to take those questions seriously.

Men need to process things through their minds first. Men end up relating emotionally, but it's not the first step. Don't pretend to know it all, but walk alongside them in their quest to discover God.

Men need to visualize. Use word pictures, analogies, or a diagram to explain a concept.

Men need respect. "If we tell them they're wrong without explaining ourselves, they'll feel disrespected," says Sean Taylor, a mission strategist.

Men need to see how Christlikeness is connected with success. Show that becoming a believer isn't just critical for making heaven, but also each of their roles here on earth: husband, father, businessman, athlete, neighbor, friend.

Men need a vision. Guys need the energy that comes from pursuing something big. They need a sense of destiny and significance.

Men need practical steps. If a spiritual truth is spoken, the next questions are: What then shall be done? What does it mean practically?

—Brian Peterson in On Mission

My Response: Which of these steps do I need to work on first?

Thought to Apply: You never know till you try to reach them how accessible men are; but you must approach each man by the right door.
—Henry Ward Beecher (preacher, 19th century)
