Sharing Christ: A Journey of Evangelism and Discipleship

Sharing Christ is one of the most profound ways we can fulfill our purpose as Christians. It’s not about our ability to convert someone—that responsibility belongs solely to God. Our job is to plant the seeds, water them faithfully, and trust God to bring the increase (1 Corinthians 3:6-7). This series, Sharing Christ Effectively, is designed to equip and encourage you in your role as a witness, empowering you to share your faith with boldness and love.

Understanding the Call to Sharing Christ

Jesus left His followers with a mission that transcends time: to share the good news with the world. This call, known as the Great Commission, is the foundation for all evangelism efforts. Yet, sharing Christ is not merely about preaching; it is about living a life that reflects His love and truth.

What to Expect in This Series

This eight-part blog series will guide you step-by-step through the essential elements of sharing Christ effectively:

1. Embracing the Great Commission: Understanding and committing to Christ’s command to make disciples.
2. Sharing Your Personal Testimony: Using your story of faith to inspire and connect with others.
3. Proclaiming the Gospel Message: Clearly and concisely presenting the message of salvation.
4. Building Relationships for Evangelism: Sharing Christ through trust-filled, genuine connections.
5. Praying for Opportunities and Boldness: Seeking God’s guidance and courage for witnessing.
6. Living as a Witness: Reflecting Christ’s love and truth in your daily life.
7. Overcoming Fear and Rejection: Trusting God’s power to overcome challenges in evangelism.
8. Making Disciples: Helping others grow in their faith and empowering them to disciple others.

Each topic will include practical tools, scriptural insights from the New Living Translation (NLT), and encouragement to help you grow in confidence and effectiveness as you share Christ with those around you.
