Map your natural relational network—family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues—to pray strategically and identify open hearts.
Biblical Concept
In the New Testament, the Greek word oikos refers to one's household—the relational sphere of family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues who know and trust you (Mark 5:19; Acts 16:31).
How to Complete Your Oikos Map:
- Draw a Circle in the Center: Write your name.
- Branch Out into 4 Quadrants:
- Family: Immediate and extended relatives.
- Friends / Social: Gym mates, hobby partners, close friends.
- Workplace / School: Coworkers, clients, classmates, teachers.
- Neighborhood: Immediate neighbors, local shopkeepers.
- List Names in Each Quadrant: Write down specific people you interact with regularly.
- Color-Code Spiritual Temperatures:
- 🟢 Green: Believer walking with God.
- 🟡 Yellow: Receptive/curious seeker; person of peace.
- 🔴 Red: Skeptical, resistant, or unchurched.
- Pray & Engage: Commit to praying for 3 yellow names daily and look for natural opportunities to invite them to a simple meal or DBS.
