Which teaching model do you use?

Unless you're delivering a sermon, make your Bible teaching interactive. Ask questions. (WAIT for responses.) Use dialogue back and forth to help people understand key points more deeply. Use illustrations. Ask questions. Express emotion and passion from an authentic, Spirit-ssaturated heart! Ask questions. Speak right into their chests! This is the Jesus way of teaching. This is the way to dramatically increase learning, retention, and life change.

This morning I heard a great descriptor for the alternative model of teaching:

"Sit-n-git"
