Evangelism takes both words and action.

Let me start with a question: What is the best thing that has happened to you over the past three months? We all love to talk about our good news.

After you have an answer in mind, move on to the more important question. Did you tell anyone about it? Odds are, you did. An old marketing adage says you tell three others when you have a great experience with a brand. A more recent study put it higher—7.44 people to be exact. In sum, “people enjoy speaking of positive news and remember good news clearly.”

God wired us to share good news. God designed us in His image, so we've taken on, at least on our better days, some of His characteristics. Like God, we love sharing wonderful news. The Scriptures even speak highly of those who do: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news” (Isaiah 52:7).

What keeps us from sharing the gospel with those who don’t know Jesus?

In order to multiply, we must speak the good news. For “how to” resources, go to http://reallifeconversion.blogspot.com/


Words and actions are like two wings of an airplane, and you won’t catch flight in witness with just one or the other.
