I have tried to talk about Christ with others. I found that listening and then commenting made a big difference. Adding the dialogue after listen is a great technique to meet people where they are and to remember to move forward as they are willing and able.

Yes I have told others about Christ and the greatest of these techniques in my opinion is listening. People want to be heard and heard with understanding. While it may not line up with what I would I listen and afterwards pray for that person to hear whatever God has for them. I don’t believe it’s for me to know how, what, and when for others but to trust God that just as he has a plan for me that his plan for others will play out according his will and good pleasure. I will use listening to guide me in how Holy Spirit wants me to interact with those who don’t know Jesus as Lord and Savior as well those who do know him.

I have shared my conversion story with others, starting with my family members over the past 40 years, but my family members have still not accepted Christ. My circle of people that I am currently exposed to are basically believers now, but I have witnessed to others in my life when I worked. I am currently retired. I have tried to be an active listener and answer any/all questions that they may have. I am always open to trying new techniques if they are effective.

I have had the privilege of talking to others about Christ in the past. I think it was essential to listen to the other person to know how to share. Sometimes, I would answer a question about my struggles and how faith helped me. Although I have talked about Christ to others, I have not led anyone through the sinner’s prayer. I am going to practice a presentation of the gospel so I will be ready when the opportunity comes around.

Yes, I have definitely told others about Christ. Using my personal testimony to give them a real life story of how God showed up in my life, and how and why I personally chose to accept him was key for me to use. As I have experienced more of God’s goodness, so have my testimony of His goodness has grown and expanded. But how I came to lasting relationship with Christ and receiving His gift of salvation, I won’t change anything about how God called me and telling others about it.
