Publisher's summary

This book is the ultimate guide in solving the problem of miscommunication by understanding what the levels of development are, how to identify where someone is in that development, then bringing Jesus to them in a way they can understand.

You may have thought you knew nearly everything there was to know about speaking to somebody about whether Jesus is real. But what you probably don’t know is that you are missing the opportunity to successfully share that Jesus is alive with 75 percent of those you persuade - three out of every four atheists or agnostics.

This is the potential number of individuals you speak to that are not hearing your message that Jesus is alive - and simply because you did not know about the connection between cognitive reasoning styles and effective persuasion (how you share the message).

When you prepare to go out into the world and share the good news that God is alive and the benefits of knowing God in a personal way, much time is usually invested in knowing the pillars of salvation and the road to becoming alive in the spirit.

This is to be expected, since a relative few in ministry have a master’s degrees in counseling or the psychological sciences, and specifically, the cognitive processes that every human filters the world’s information through.

What this book will do for you as a believer in God is teach the basics of cognitive reasoning and how the human mind receives and interprets information. With this new knowledge, you then have a new tool in your conversational toolbox that will forever change how you communicate with everyone around you, especially as you seek to share the reality of a living God.

By knowing how to apply your new understanding of cognitive reasoning, the 75 percent of the individuals that would otherwise not “hear” or understand your message will not fall through the cracks and your success rate in bringing more humans to the realization that God is alive will skyrocket!

There is a process by which humans receive and process information (aka think) that makes each of us different. We can be all be grouped into certain categories of thinking styles or stages.

You are going to discover that there is an amazing way to listen to individuals, determine their style of information processing, better understand them, and then have a greater ability to transmit the message of a living God to them. And this can all happen in less than five minutes!

Again, this book is the ultimate guide in solving this problem by understanding what the levels of development are, how to identify where someone is in that development, then bringing Jesus to them in a way they can understand.
