GOOD MOUTH
The most productive
witnessing you can do will be to those who are nearest to you.
Luke 8:38-39 “38 The man from whom the demons had gone out
begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying, 39 ‘Return home and tell how much God has done
for you.’ So the man went away and told all over
town how much Jesus had done for him.”
Acts 20:24
“However, I consider my life worth nothing
to me; my only aim is to finish
the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task
of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.”
GOOD HANDS
The life you live can
lead others to recognize the difference in you.
1 Peter 3:15
“But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord.
Always be prepared to give an answer to
everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with
gentleness and respect…”
GOOD STORY
Your story is powerful
on its own.
John 9:25 “He
replied, ‘Whether he is a sinner or not, I don’t know. One thing I do know. I
