5 Practical Steps For Sharing The Gospel

Practical advice for sharing the gospel.

015While teaching at Sunnyside I have come back to a simple acrostic to help people live a rhythm of life that can open doors for sharing the gospel. I have heard this acrostic from so many different recourses, I am not even sure where it comes from any more.

Two reasons I think it is helpful:

1. It provides a pathway or guide-rails to create environments where gospel sharing can take place.

2. It takes something that can feel so large and breaks it into smaller steps.

Colossian 4:2-6

“Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. Pray for us, too, that God will give us many opportunities to speak about his mysterious plan concerning Christ. That is why I am here in chains. Pray that I will proclaim this message as clearly as I should Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity. 6 Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone.

Serve

I will respond to the needs of others and help them in practical and impactful ways.

Story

I will share the story of Jesus and what He is doing in my life with others.

Even if you did two of these things in a day you would be better positioning yourself to share the gospel.
