Folks: as a part of renewing our congregation’s commitment to and involvement in regular witnessing in our community, we want to equip them with some simple tools that will help them. E.g., a basic gospel presentation is a must. So far, it looks like the tried and true one-verse technique using Rom 6:23 is going to be a foundation for.
Yet I’d like to know if y’all have any recommendations? Remember, the goal here is to provide the basics – this is boot camp for the newbie who has never held a gospel gun before. It needs to be simple and sound.
Also, even more substantial, I’d like to come up with a one-verse illustration particularly fitted to a community where everyone says, “Amen, Jesus!”, has probably at some time in their life walked the aisle, or said the sinner’s prayer, or made a decision for Jesus, yet their lives do not demonstrate anything that clearly distinguishes them as a believer. I.e., I’m looking for a on-verse witnessing tool for the majority of folks in the Bible-belt. Any suggestions on verses to use? If one verse in the parable of the soils (Mt 13) captured everything – that would be great!
Anyway, thanks for your help.
