Listen for your weekly motivation for Gospel conversations. We're faced with an opportunity to share the Gospel almost every day, but oftentimes we don't know where to start or how to begin. Don't let that be you. This short podcast is designed to weekly encourage, inspire, and equip Christians to share their faith. Get READY 2 GO!
Get equipped to share your faith and take a conversation from the secular to the spiritual in just over an hour. Ready2Go Evangelism Crash Course has six short videos featuring Dave Gibson, Zane Black, Jon Christenson, and Greg Stier. In a little more than an hour, these teachers will help build your confidence to share your faith today. If you have never shared your faith before, this is a great place to start.
Simple steps to reach someone with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Think of 5 or more friends, neighbors, relatives, or people you meet regularly at school or work, who need to know Jesus — My 5. Begin to pray for them regularly. Join with others to pray for the people on each of your lists.
Ask God to help you develop friendships with them. Evangelism is often done best when it is based on relationships. God has given you a circle of contacts — reach out to them where they are, and be the love of God to them. Invite them for a meal, or join them in something they enjoy doing. They may not know any other Christian besides you.
As God leads, seek opportunities to share your faith. You can be a link between them and God. Simply share what Jesus means to you or invite them to your church or an outreach event in your community. Give them an opportunity to say yes to Jesus.
Keep praying and being a friend. Help nurture their faith, invite them to church or a Bible study, and pray with them. Remember that, when someone comes to faith in Jesus, it is the beginning of a journey. Ask the Holy Spirit to empower them to live out their new life in Christ.
The SHARE process can help guide a conversation about their story from secular to eternal.

God created us to love Him and enjoy a relationship with Him forever. The Bible says "All things were created by Him and for Him." (Col 1:16)
God's Word says "All of us have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23). This statement applies to everyone. We all sin, and ultimately we will stand in Judgment, declared guilty before a holy and perfect God. (Hebrews 9:27)
You see, there's nothing we can do to get to God. Good works, religion, morality, or philosophy, will not bridge the gap between sinful people and a holy God. God's Word states that "All of our good deeds are like filthy rags before a holy God." (Isaiah 64:6)
But there is Good News. While God is holy and just and must judge sin, He is also loving and merciful and doesn't want to punish us. So God provided the way to restore our relationship with Him.
Jesus lived a perfect life and did many miracles proving He was God. Because of His great love for us, Jesus paid the death penalty for every sin we ever committed. (Romans 5:8)
Jesus not only died for our sins. He was buried and rose again from the grave on the third day. (1 Corinthians 15:3-5, Rom 5:8) And he is the only way to get to God. He said "I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6)
And that means anyone! Salvation involves turning to God from sin — that's called repentance — and trusting in Jesus alone for Salvation, receiving Him by faith. (Eph 2:8-9)
Jesus said "Here I am . . . I'm knocking at the door of your heart. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him." (Rev 3:20) It requires faith and a personal invitation, surrendering complete control of your life to Him. God's Word says "To all who received Him to those who believe in His name, He gives the right to become a child of God . . ." (John 1:12) And, "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved . . ." (Romans 10:9-10)
God promised in His Word . . . "Everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved . . ." (Romans 10:13) What you do with Jesus is the most important decision you will ever make. Once you have trusted Him as your Savior and Lord, your life.
Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, whoever hears these words of mine and believes Him who sent me has eternal life and will not come into Judgment but has crossed over from death to life." (John 5:24)
