"This guide equips you to share the gospel with love, charity, and boldness."
Key verse: Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; 1 Peter 3:15

Before you can tell others, you must know Him.

• Study the Word: John 1:1, John14:6
• Pray for revelation: Ephesians 1:17-18
• Walk with Him daily: John 15:4-5

Jesus is the Son of God (John 3:16)
He is the Word made flesh (John 1:14)
He is Savior and Lord, the only way to the Father (John 14:6)
He is both fully God and fully man (Philippians 2:5-11)
If you don't believe and understand this, your witness will lack conviction.

How do you stay connected to Jesus daily?

Keep a daily habit of prayer and Bible reading. If you don't stay close to Jesus, your witness will lack power.

The Gospel is simple and power:

1. God loves us (John 3:16)
2. We are all sinners (Romans 3:23)
3. Jesus died for our sins (Romans 5:8)
4. He rose again (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
5. Salvation is a gift received by faith (Ephesians 2:8-9)

He came to save us from sin (Matthew 1:21)
He lived a perfect, sinless life (Hebrews 4:15)
He died on the cross for our sins (1 Corinthians 15:3)
He rose again with all power (Matthew 28:6)
He ascended and now intercedes for us (Romans 8:34)

The Gospel is the heart of your witness (1 Corinthians 15:1-4)

Which of these 5 truths is hardest for people you know to believe?

Memorize these 5 points and be ready to share them.

Your testimony has power.

• Before Christ > Who you were (Acts 26:4-11)
• Encounter with Christ > How He saved you (Acts 26:12-18)
• After Christ > How He changed you (Acts 26:19-23)

Write your testimony in 3-5 minutes. Can you share it clearly?

Practice telling your story with someone you trust. People may doubt your words, but they can't deny a transformed life.

Witnessing is conversation, not a sermon.

• Ask questions: "Do you believe in God?"
• Share truth: "Jesus said He is the Way" (John 14:6)
• Invite: "Would you like to receive Him as Lord and Savior?"

You: "Can I share something that changed my life?"
Them: "Sure."
You: "I used to struggle with [fear, sin, hopelessness]. But I came to know Jesus. He forgave me and gave me peace. the Bible says, 'For God so loved the world...' (John 3:16). Would you like to receive Him today?"

What keeps you from inviting others to Christ?

Tip: Keep a Bible (or app) ready to show verses.

Your lifestyle either confirms or contradicts your words.

• Be a light (Matthew 5:16)
• Walk in love (John 13:34-35)
• Live holy (1 Peter 1:15-16)

What part of your lifestyle reflects Christ? What part needs change?

Tip: Consistency gives credibility to your witness.

We don't witness in our own strength.

• Pray for boldness (Acts 4:29)
• Be Spirit-led (Acts 8:29)
• Trust God for results (1 Corinthians 3:6-7)

How has the Holy Spirit ever nudged you to speak to someone?

Pray each morning: "Holy Spirit, use me to point someone to Jesus today."

Tip: Don't stress about saving people - your jobs is to share, God's job is to save.

The best way to learn is to do it.

• Start with family/friends.
• Pray for opportunities daily.
• Go out two by two (Luke 10:1).

Share the gospel with at least one person this week.

Tip: Even a simple "Jesus loves you" can open the door.
