Do you realize that God is in the business of reconciliation? After coming to know the Lord, Sunny and Roshna learned to share their faith through EE classes and immediately began sharing the Gospel. They were converted to Jesus from their former religion, and do you know where they started sharing the Gospel? Well, at their former place of worship! Roshna said as they shared their testimony, you could hear a pin drop! The name of Jesus was being preached, with love, in a place His Name had never been. If that’s not bridging the gap, I don’t know what is! Jesus’ love bridges the gap between our sinfulness and God’s righteousness. Aren’t you glad that through Him, we can have Eternal Life because He made a way for us? There are so many stories in the Bible where Jesus urges us to bridge the gap and reconcile sinners to God. So let's make it a priority to do just that. ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”

Hudson Taylor said even though he endured great hardships and tragedies in his lifelong mission work in China, "I never made a sacrifice." He counted all the riches of this world (or even the basic comforts) as a loss in gratitude for Jesus' sacrifice. In Matthew sixteen, Jesus told His disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me." You see, we carry our crosses in gratitude to Jesus! And through the hardships, we tell others the Good News of the Gospel. In Lebanon, a family came to know Jesus. And when the people of their village heard, they started persecuting them. But both they and the Christians who led them to Jesus started sharing about Christ, and the village deemed that their faith was not dangerous and accepted them with peace. Many more have come to saving faith in Jesus since then.

Everyone needs real hope, including today’s teens. This was Bryr’s testimony that he shared with us on what’s my story dot org: “Before I received eternal salvation, I struggled with anxiety... In Secondary School, I’d have anxiety attacks because I felt different. I was smaller than the other boys, and I couldn’t understand why—or how—to be happy in my own skin. [...] But God placed amazing people in my life who led me to Christ. Through Him, I found purpose and meaning. I no longer suffer from anxiety. I now see that being different isn’t a flaw—it’s part of God’s design. I’ve learned how to use the gifts He gave me to share His Word.” Bryr found purpose and meaning through a relationship with Jesus and now shares that with others. So let’s disciple the teenagers in our churches to do the same—because you never know who in their lives needs the very same hope only found! ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”

When you disciple a teenager to share their faith, you don’t just impact one life—you begin a ripple effect. I mean, think about it: one equipped teen can reach dozens of friends. They can disciple those friends the same way they were—by teaching them how to grow in their faith and share the Gospel with others. And then those friends go out and do the same—it’s multiplication! But discipleship doesn’t happen by accident. It’s intentional. It’s time spent talking with teens, walking them through resources, having practice conversations with them, and praying through fear. It’s reminding teens that sharing the Gospel matters and that others need to hear it. And when they get it, watch out. Because teens don’t just talk—they act. They invite. They post. They pray. They go. But they need someone to show them how. And that someone might be you. Who’s the teenager in your life that needs to be equipped? Let's not miss this opportunity. ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”

Have you ever heard it said that evangelism is better “caught than taught”? Well, it’s true! So when it comes to equipping Christian teenagers, we must actually do what we say we believe. If we’re not living lives marked by bold, loving Gospel conversations, why would they? Discipling teens to share their faith begins with showing them how it’s done and walking with them as they try it for themselves. And that’s why we at EE are so passionate about On-The-Job training, where a trainer shows what having a Gospel conversation is like. And training a teenager to share their faith is about helping them see people the way Jesus does, giving them courage to share the Gospel, and reminding them that the Holy Spirit does the real work. And when teens are discipled, they grow deeper roots and broader reach. They become influencers for Christ in their classrooms, on their sports teams, and communities.

According to Barna research, only 19% of Christian teens say they’ve personally been discipled in how to share their faith. That’s right...less than one in five. And meanwhile, teens are navigating complex cultural conversations every day — conversations about identity, justice, truth — without knowing how to bring Jesus into them. And if we don’t disciple them, the world will and already is. Discipling teens to share their faith isn’t just a “nice-to-have.” It’s essential. And they can absolutely be incredible witnesses for the Kingdom of God. First Timothy four twelve (4:12) says, “Don’t let anyone look down on you because of your youth….” Let's equip the young people of our church, walk with them, answer their questions, and show them how to talk about their faith confidently. ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”

Did you know one of the largest mission fields isn’t across the ocean—but it’s in our own communities and schools? In our high schools, Christian teenagers are surrounded daily by friends and classmates searching for identity, hope, and truth. And yet, many Christian teens feel unprepared to talk about their faith. But how do we disciple our youth to confidently share the Gospel? Well, we need to teach them how to have a Gospel conversation, model for them a life of boldness and compassion through sharing our faith, and help them know why they believe what they believe. Teens are not the Church of tomorrow—they’re the Church of today. And if we equip them now in how to tell others about Jesus, we multiply the Gospel’s reach exponentially. So let's not wait. Let’s raise a generation who can say, “I know Jesus, and I know how to tell my friend about Him too.” ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”

When we learn to share the Gospel, we become part of something eternal. This past September, Samuel walked into our ministry’s Uganda office. Homeless, jobless, and abandoned, he’d spent nights on the streets of Kampala, desperate and hopeless. He told us, “I thought about ending my life so many times…I just needed someone to talk to.” That’s when he met Francis. Francis listened, and then shared the Gospel. In just 25 minutes, Samuel surrendered his life to Jesus, tears streaming down his face. He received a Bible, prayer, and a bus ticket home. And just four days later—Samuel got a job offer out of the blue! Today, he’s working and growing in his faith at a local church in his hometown. God works through believers to bring hope to people like Samuel. But it is our job to be ready to share! ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”

When we ask God for opportunities to share the Gospel, He answers—sometimes in ways we don’t expect. One evening this past September, a young man in Kenya who learned how to share his faith felt prompted by the Holy Spirit to speak with two young men from a nearby village. He had recently been to one of our evangelism trainings, where he learned exactly how to share the Gospel clearly and confidently. As they sat together, he asked them two diagnostic questions, and one believed he was saved, while the other trusted in his good works. But after hearing the Gospel, both realized their need for Jesus. That night, they prayed to receive Him as Lord and Savior! When we ask God for opportunities to share the Gospel, He will answer us. So, I’d like to challenge you today...ask the Holy Spirit to guide you to someone who needs the Gospel, and then follow His leading! ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God unto salvation for everyone who believes. Last August, in Kasungu, Malawi, a young girl was moments away from taking her own life. But God had another plan. Evance, who had just learned how to share his faith, heard about her situation and went to her home. While others were trying to reason with her, Evance brought something more: the Gospel. He gently asked her two questions about if she knew if she was going to Heaven and what she’d say to God if He asked her why He should let her in. She broke down in tears. Right then, Evance shared the hope found in Jesus—and she received Christ as her Lord and Savior. That day, her life forever changed. She gained hope and joy she did not have before. And here’s the truth—there are also people around us who feel hopeless and alone. Like Evance, will we share with them? ________________________ ShareLifeAfrica is a Christian radio and podcast program of Evangelism Explosion International Africa Ministry; that is committed to equipping you with the tools and resources needed to confidently and effectively share your faith with others.”
