Share Life Today

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today.

Did you know that there are Christians all around the world that have been working tirelessly to fulfill Jesus' last command? He gave us the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you..." And there are many that have taken this very seriously. In fact, there are leaders that are saying the Gospel will be finished going forth and the Great Commission will be fulfilled as early as 2033. A few are saying it could be even earlier than that! And if this is true, the question we must ask ourselves is what role will we play? Let me encourage you: don't wait to start sharing your faith. Don't wait bringing hope to others who are hopeless, desperate, and lost. The time to share is now. Learn more about sharing the Gospel at ShareLife.Today.

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today.

Do you want to really be stretched in your faith? Ask God to give you His eyes for other people. And He'll answer that prayer and begin to break your heart for what breaks His. And there is nothing dearer to Christ's heart than people. He created each of us uniquely and for a purpose! Once you start looking, you'll begin to see this for yourself and value others highly. You'll desire for them to have the peace, love, and joy that can only be found in Christ; and then you'll make the effort to start spiritual conversations and look for opportunities to share the Gospel with them. So take the challenge this week! Think of each person you pass by as a neighbor. If you make a conscious effort to really see people as they pass by, you will begin to really care and you will want to witness more! Not sure where to start? We would love to help. We have a lot of resources to get you started! Visit our website at ShareLife.Today.

How does a farmer know to harvest? Well, it boils down to a farmer looking at their field and seeing that the crop is ripe! You know, the Bible uses the very same analogy for a spiritual harvest of souls ready to accept the free gift of eternal life. Jesus told the disciples, "I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest." It would be detrimental to a farm if the workers missed out on collecting the crop. There may be bankruptcy or even people who starve from it. But for the us, it would be even more harmful. Not to God-because He can make the rocks cry out His glory. But how unfortunate it would be for us to miss out on the blessing of being a part of the harvest. We have the purpose and the privilege to be Jesus' hands and feet here on earth, and that includes bringing the Gospel to the ends of the earth.

Jump on in! The water's fine! Have you ever heard that before? Maybe as a child on the edge of a diving board. It was probably pretty exhilarating when you finally jumped in! And you know, it's the same way when you take a step of faith, and Amber did just that at a recent Equip America event. Let's listen to what she had to say. "We often make sharing the Gospel more complicated than it has to be. And I really appreciate your guys' method on how to share it. It's so easy! All we have to do is have a little bit of faith..." Your Father in Heaven will help you as you take a step of faith to witness to others. Would you like to experience this? Well, I have some great news.

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today.

What's keeping you from sharing the Gospel? Are you afraid that people won't take the time to have a Gospel conversation with you? Well, listen to what Evan had to say immediately after participating in an Equip America Event in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. "How ripe the harvest is, you know? And how we as the body of Christ need to step out and how the Holy Spirit is just going to empower our smallest act of obedience." In Matthew 9:35, Jesus said, "The harvest is plentiful," and two thousand years later, it remains true. The Lord will provide the opportunities if you'll just ask for them! Would you like to experience this? Well, I have some great news. This Saturday, we are hosting an online Equip America.

How are you investing your time? You know, it's easy, especially at the end of the work week, to just want to sit back and relax! But I have a challenge for you: invest your Saturday into someone's eternity by signing up for a Equip America. Listen to what Priscilla, who participated an Equip America in Oklahoma City, had to say: "This personally is a confirmation to me that I'm at the right place at the right time. And God uses anybody-if He can use me, He uses anyone! And this is God stuff, right here. This is God stuff." Wow! You, too, can experience "God stuff!" Would you like that opportunity?

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today.

Did you know that God uses ordinary people like you and me to point others to Christ? Opportunities to share our faith are literally all around us. With a few simple tools, we can speak the Gospel with confidence and develop passion for those who do not yet know Him. One of the keys to sharing your faith with confidence is simply to being yourself. Keep the conversation friendly. Ask questions about their spiritual life and what gives them the most meaning. Take time to listen and understand where they are struggling. And share your story about how you came to know Jesus and what difference it's made it your life. People love stories, and your story is interesting because it is unique. This will also help them understand the transforming power of the Gospel in your life and how a relationship with Jesus can impact them too. All these ways help us share our faith boldly and lovingly with others. To learn more about sharing the Gospel with confidence, visit our website at ShareLife.Today.

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today.

The Bible teaches us that everything we possess has come to us because God gave it to us. First Corinthians 4:7 says, "What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?" Our responsibility with our possessions is to use them as God's stewards - using them, that is, as He would Himself. In Acts chapter two, we see a picture of the early church selling their property and possessions to make sure that any need was met. They had open hands and hearts with all that they owned. This is an expression of Christian fellowship in the church: sharing what we possess. And as we do, we receive opportunities to point others to the One who gave us everything in the first place-our Savior, Jesus Christ. What are some ways you can give what God has given you?
