Consider these Guidelines to help you get started:
- Everyone can learn to share their faith effectively.
- This is a lifetime journey not a sprint.
- Learn step by step - it gets easier and "snowballs".
- God has made you uniquely qualified to share.
- Seek to be holy and learn to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
- A huge part of your success is to practice speaking every day.
- Keep in mind - some sow and some reap but God makes it grow!
- Start to engage people - learn to ask questions - it will help you understand. how people think and motivate you to learn responses to people's answers.
Here are some questions to help you get started.
- May I ask you a question?
- Do you happen to have any type of spiritual beliefs?
- Really, tell me more ...
- What has brought you to that conclusion?
- How did you arrive at that?
- Have you ever considered Christianity?
- When someone states an objection, before you respond, you can ask "If that wasn’t an issue, is there anything else?". and you can ask it many times. This helps you understand the depth of their world view.
- Who is Jesus to you?
- If you were to die today, where would you go?
- If what you believe wasn’t true - would you want to know?
- Do you know any Christians?
- What's been your experience with Christians?
- Did you know that Jesus said he was the only way? the resurrection was recorded by eyewitnesses? the Bible was written by 40 different authors from many walks of life and on 3 continents?
- What if … (ex. What if the Bible is true? Would you be a Christian?)
- Would you like to know why I believe what I believe?
Have Fun. Be whimsical. Be ready to paint a picture of what the Spirit Filled Life is. Sharing the Gospel is like explaining colors and objects to a blind person or explaining to a baby.
Check our Scripture Tab on this website and start memorizing and practicing.
Start writing down. the reasons you are a Christian and why Christianity is true and why the Bible is reliable.
Practice sharing in a safe environment with friends at church or a evangelism buddy or small meetings.
Start writing down why the Bible is reliable.
Study. There are lots of resources on the internet. Please check out our resources tab as we verify and add more resources.
Be Earnest! if you are an accountant, teacher, mechanic, landscaper, plumber, pastors, etc., you had to study and practice to be the accomplished professional you are. How much more as a representative of the King!
Remember - we want to be loving, prepared, and "on the ball"!
Praying for your joy and success!
