Book excerpt: Before ascending into Heaven, Jesus commissioned all his followers to spread the Gospel throughout the world. That mission did not just apply to those present at that time. It applies to all Christians. It is the duty of every Christian to tell others about Christ. But this should not be viewed as some burdensome task. We should be eager to share the news of salvation through Jesus because of the change it has brought to our circumstances and because of the potential it has to change the lives of others. And yet so many Christians are reluctant to tell others about their faith. There are many sources of this reluctance. Modern society has conditioned us to compartmentalize our faith, making it an ever more private part of our lives. Some of us have simply allowed ourselves to get too busy to take the time for spreading the gospel. Many of us simply want to avoid confrontations and fear that speaking about religion will only lead to an argument and draw unwanted attention to ourselves. Many of us simply just don't know how to go about starting the conversation in the first place. The purpose of this book is to prepare you for a conversation with a non-Christian about Jesus. I will attempt to walk you through the conversation step by step using effective statements and answers to potential questions. It is my hope that this script will help to build your confidence so that you will feel more comfortable sharing your faith with others.
