In this week’s message from Pastor Dave Mudd, Week 3 of the "Know | Live | Share - The Gospel" series, we explore the heart of our Christian faith: sharing the good news of Jesus Christ. This message on evangelism will challenge and equip you to move beyond simply knowing the gospel to actively living and sharing it in your everyday life. Discover the joy and purpose that comes from making disciples and fulfilling the Great Commission. If you're ready to grow in your faith and make a real impact for the kingdom, this is a message you don't want to miss.

Key Takeaways:

    •    The Motivation for Sharing: If you truly love someone, you can't help but talk about them. The same principle applies to our relationship with Jesus. Our love for Him should naturally overflow into conversations about His goodness and grace in our lives.

    •    Living a "Sent" Life: The Great Commission isn't just for missionaries in foreign lands. It's a call for every believer to live a "sent" life, sharing the gospel at work, at school, and in our communities. We are all called to be witnesses for Christ wherever we go.

    •    Disciples, Not Just Decisions: The goal of sharing our faith isn't just to get people to say a prayer. It's about making disciples – walking with people, teaching them to obey God's commands, and helping them grow in their relationship with Jesus.

    •    Overcoming the Obstacles: We can overcome common barriers to sharing our faith like fear, apathy, and a lack of knowledge by relying on the Holy Spirit and remembering that we are not alone in this mission. Jesus is with us, empowering us to be His witnesses.

    •    The Power of Your Testimony: You don't need to be a theologian to share the gospel. Simply sharing your personal story of what God has done in your life can be a powerful and transformative tool for reaching others.
