| Summary: | This essay approaches communication from an unexpected quarter — insults. In the final analysis communicating the Gospel involves communicating the mighty acts of God in Christ within the context of values. Since insults are directly related to cultural values, they become important to those concerned with effective communication of the Gospel.
