What to Do
- Prayer walk, singspiration for 30 mins
- Go out in pairs, preferably a brother and a sister. Try not to have two brothers paired up.
- As one shares the gospel, the other person PRAYS quietly
- PRAY with or BLESS them at the end of the conversation
- Debriefing with the group
- Share what God has done
- Share what you have learned
- Give thanks and PRAY for the people you’ve met
How to Start and End
- Greet friend and introduce yourself first
- “Hi, good morning/afternoon. My name is ___. This is ___.”
- Ask for permission to share the gospel. Show them the cube or the Wordless book to draw their attention as you ask.
- “Do you have a few minutes for us to share some good news with you?
- “Have you ever heard of Jesus?. Can we have a few minutes to tell you more about Him?
- What if they say, “no” or “not interested”?
- Don’t stop at the first no. Sometimes people may not know what to
say except “no”. Our experience shows that even with an initial no, you
can still talk a lot with that person.
- For ’No’: “It is really short and would not take up too much of your time.”
- For ‘Not interested’: “Do you mind to tell us why you are not interested?”
- Try to carry a dialogue while sharing the gospel. While one shares, the other prays.
- Invite the friend to accept Jesus. If they are willing,
- Ask them to pray out loud (not quietly in their hearts) to invite
Jesus into their lives. Praying out loud will help them to affirm their
own decisions.
- Exchange contact info (phone, email, etc.) with them. Give them church information.
- If they are not ready to accept Jesus, do the following:
- Bless them in Jesus’ name before leaving. Ask how you can pray for them.
- Ask if they are willing to give us contact info for follow up. Give them a copy of the tract if they are interested.
