  1. Jesus used Setting to teach His lesson. Jesus was careful to select the content of His Message and fit it with the context of the lesson. He went where they lived and worked. Think of John the Baptist and Jesus’ Baptism. Think of Peter, Andrew, James, and John and their boat mending their nets as Jesus talked about being fishers of men. 
    1. Jesus used Visual Aids to enrich His teaching. When he was asked about paying taxes, what did he say? (Matt 22) How did Jesus teach His point about having a Childlike faith (Matt 18:2)?
    2. Jesus was Very deliberate with his timing. He allowed the listener to get slightly uncomfortable--Mentally and physically. In Matt 15--the people were hungry but he was teaching them what he could provide for the people. Jesus waited until they were uncomfortable when He stilled the storm at sea in Matthew 8. Jesus used wait time to make the men in John 8 uncomfortable. 
    3. Jesus used Questioning to help His listeners stay engaged. When He was teaching, He was working together with His learners--They were working side-by-side instead of sit-n-get. Usually, Jesus countered with a question that challenged the listener and caused the listener to reflect on the thinking or think logically through a situation.
