Sharing our Faith Effectively....The Way of the Master




I am very blessed by the website that I want to share with you. If you are interested
in evangelism, this link will be one of your favorites. It has so much to offer. There
are audio teachings, clips of witnessing experiences and a place to purchase witnessing
tools.

Below, you will find a video of one of their teachings. It is called  Hell's Best Kept
Secret.

I have been following this site for only a short time and I am thankful for the
information and encouragement. In my life, sharing the gospel message is not an option.
Though I went through the several week course on witnessing, I still need help. I need
reminded of the seriousness of those lost and dying eternally separated from God.

Proverbs 11:30 says, The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life and he who wins
souls is wise.

Knowing how to effectively share our faith and having some tools and teaching to carry it
out is very important. We don't want to offend with our words or approach. It's my desire to
share the truth of the gospel with love and with what I call a "bold humility". In order
to do that, I need to saturate myself with as much of these teachings as I can. Complacency in
area is not loving or caring. Prayer and sharing is caring.

I am always saying that I love people. How can I truly love
 them and not be concerned for their souls?

Answering the Call of Evangelism



Tuesday evening at our home is what we call "Discipleship Class." It's our practice to
work at discipleship as a way of life but we also realize the need for more formal study
as well. Tues. evenings offers us an opportunity to address or study a truth or principle
from the Bible. This week the focus is evangelism.

Have you ever heard of Ray Comfort.  He is one of the most passionate evangelists
on the streets today. Kirk Cameron and he have introduced an informative, assertive,
effective type of evangelism to Christians through their course "The Way of the Master."

Have you ever wondered why there are so many false conversions? Listen to the theory
of these men as they share information that parallels that of Charles Spurgeon and John
Wesley.

Jeff, I and our seven youngest children have attended the basic training course. It is a
six to eight session course that is well worth the commitment. Some features of the
course are as follows:

*role playing
*effective use of tracts
*scripture memorization

There is MUCH more to the course. After we attended, our compassion for the lost
was rekindled and we felt more equipped and confident to approach people to
share the gospel with them. 

Last evening we watched a video called "We Cannot but Speak..How to Gain a
Passion for Evangelism" featuring Ray Comfort. It was s good follow-up refresher
to the course.

Our family has always had a desire to minister to the lost and hurting that are around
us. To offer them a hope here on earth as well as for eternity. We believe we are to
be active in fulfilling the call of the Great Commission as the scripture commands
in Matthew 28:19, 20.


Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I
have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Being the beautiful feet that spreads the good news of the Gospel is part of the
foundation of the heritage of truth that we desire to pass on to our children and
share with others.


If you would like more information about the study and access to some wonderful
resources for evangelism Click Here

The Living Waters website offers a wealth of information about evangelism as well
resource links about what I will call for myself "Responsible Christianity" as well as
"Responsible Citizenship." What I mean by this is the challenge to be informed and
get involved. I am shocked and ashamed at how uninformed, naive and ineffective
that I am. God has commanded me, as a Christian, to occupy.
