We need to share
the bridge to Jesus & the Good News to everyone we possibly can. We
earn the right to be heard by sincerely listening to others. Consider these
questions when you are listening to another person's life story.
What
need is this person feeling?
What
difference does Jesus make with that need?
How
can I introduce the Jesus difference?
What
faith story do I have that shows the difference Jesus can make with this need?
How to share the message L.I.S.T.E.N.
Listen
to their story
Identify
the difference Jesus makes with their need
Share
your story - the difference Jesus made
Take
them to the cross and the empty tomb
Encourage
them to receive Christ
Nurture this new relationship with
Christ
Always be a passionate listener for Jesus.
