Witnessing

Witnessing is Sharing your Faith, this is what Christ Has Done in You!

Sharing Christ is about being real and demonstrating our faith with passion, conviction and sincerity. God’s call from Scripture is clear. Evangelism is not about catchy slogans, poster boards, tables, tracts, or formulas (although these can be helpful), and it is definitely not arguments and/or confrontations. Rather, it is helping others see Him by how we treat them and live for Christ. Evangelism is allowing others to picture Jesus in us, not our trying to verbalize without showing Him demonstrated in us first. We cannot just say a few sentences and move on. We have to nurture and demonstrate, and be considerate and loving. It is our lives telling His story that the Spirit uses to win people, not just our mouths. Our mouths are to further explain Him.

We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:20-21

Stepping out in Faith!

Developing an Evangelism Program PI As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers; Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."

Why most People Stay away from Christ

Developing an Evangelism Program PII Have you ever wondered why people do not have the willingness to come to faith in Christ? Why will they not listen to a passionate plea from a loving and caring friend or family member who wants to see them saved? Why would they choose not to see their need for such a fantastic gift from God? Why, after all your efforts and hard adoring work, it seems to have been...

How to Share your Faith!

Developing an Evangelism Program PIII A principle fact we must know before we venture out into evangelizing is this—when you ask someone, “would you like to be a Christian?” you are, in fact, saying, “would you like to be like me?” Are you a good “me”? Are you a person others should strive to be like? Be honest! No, this is not really theologically correct; the reality is we are helping people come to Christ. But, they do not know Christ yet; all they know is you and other Christians!

Witnessing can be scary. We are here to help you!

Overcoming the Fear of Evangelism

Are you afraid to witness? Do you cringe as you approach someone with the Gospel message? Does your stomach begin to turn in agonizing pain to the point that you rationalize that they probably have already heard it and do not need you to say anything, so you walk away in dread?

Praying for Evangelism

The Importance of Prayer for Evangelism! Matthew 9:35-38; John 14:12-14; Colossians 4:2-6; Luke 11:1-4 Prayer is pivotal and essential. Nothing of value can accrue in you or though you without prayer! The above Scriptures testify to us that we need to be praying for workers, for ourselves, for opportunities, and for those who do not know Him!

How to Prepare a Testimony

God calls us to proclaim what we have seen and heard! When someone asks you to make a profession of faith or give a testimony, does your blood pressure go up? Do you dread it, and begin to sweat, perhaps even panic? Can you think of all kinds of reasons why you should not profess your faith, such as you do not know enough, you are not ready, or that this is not your gift? I know I have in the past. I have a natural fear of public speaking, which you may think is weird for a pastor, but many of us do.

Evangelism Insights and Encouragements

This article is a collection of insights I have learned and collected from over 20 years of evangelism in church and Para church ministry. I hope you can find these insights useful to encourage you to serve Him more powerfully and effectively! We all need encouragement. Billy Graham told me a few years ago that he needs it, and he said I need it, and I believe you may need it, too. So, here are some encouragements for you!

How to lead a person to Christ

Whatever approach you use, never argue or condemn the other person's beliefs. Focus on God's love for the person, Jesus' death on the cross for our sins, His resurrection, and the person's need to make a commitment to follow Christ. Invite the person to actually pray with you and commit his or her life to Christ.

The Reality of Hell!

Have you ever wondered what we are being saved from? This is not a pleasant, happy subject, but, nonetheless, it is extremely important for those whose call it is to help save the lost. We are saved, by Christ, from God’s wrath and an eternity in Hell! But, what is Hell? “Hell” is a name that evokes both fear and contempt. It evokes fear from those who consider it the most heinous place conceivable and where they do not want to go. It raises contempt from those who consider it a figment of someone’s distorted imagination, while others will argue that...

Principle Scriptures on Evangelism: Isaiah 52:7; 60:21; Matthew 10: 5-15; Mark 6:2; John 3:10; 10:16; Romans 3:23; 5:5; 6:23; 10:1-21; 1 Corinthians 9:19-23; 2 Corinthians 5:18-20; Ephesians 1:15-22; 2:15-7; Philippians 2:12; Colossians 1:28-29; 2:14; 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-25; 2 Timothy 3:16

He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1:7-8

After over 20 years of research and practice we have developed several curriculums and articles on how you can start, run and build a successful evangelism program for yourself and for your church! All you need to know and for you to use for free (Although you may prayfully consider supporting us so we can continue to do this)!

May you have the faith and confidence to know Christ yourself, then to make Him known to others around you!
