We all want our friends, family, and neighbors to know Christ.
How can we help them to know our Lord and Savior and experience the blessings that come from knowing Him?
Here are four things you can do to open up conversations about the gospel.
First, pray, pray, pray. I suggest putting a piece of paper on the inside cover of your Bible with the names of people you will pray everyday that they might be saved. The apostle Paul said “Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israelites is that they may be saved” (Romans 10:1). I would also suggest you ask God who those people should be.
We should pray that God would open doors for us to share our faith in Christ. We also should pray for soft hearts to hear the truth which we have to speak.
Second, be a friend and show your heartfelt compassion for the people around you. Acts of kindness and a warm, sympathetic heart will go a long way in opening doors of conversation about the gospel. We should remember that friendship is a powerful tool for the gospel.
