The Problem of Sharing Our Faith

Our problem in evangelism is not that we don’t have enough information–it is that we don’t know how to be ourselves. We forget we are called to be witnesses to what we have seen and know, not to what we don’t know.
–Rebecca Pippert

Too many times we don’t share about our relationship with Jesus because we are afraid that we don’t have enough knowledge. We are afraid we will be asked a question that we don’t know the answer to. The problem is that we can never be prepared for every question that could ever be asked. Instead of worrying about what I don’t know, I need to focus on what I do know… and what I know is that my life is different because of my meeting Jesus. My character, attitude, thoughts, speech, and behavior are all different due to how He has transformed me. That is what I need to let people see and hear about. And that is enough to draw people to Jesus. Now… how can I change my conversations with people today so that I can tell someone something about who Jesus is to me?
