Description
If you have ever wanted to share your faith with a friend and froze, or worried you would sound like a sales pitch, start here. Keep Jesus at the center and tell your own story in your own words, because people can tell when you are reading from a script. Your faith also makes sense to the people around you when your life lines up with your words. In this sermon, Pastor Kaloma Smith of UAMEZ Church in Palo Alto, California preaches on Acts 8:26-40 and shows how Philip met an Ethiopian official right where he was and told him about Jesus. Questions this sermon answers How do you share your faith with a friend? Start with Jesus instead of your denomination or church habits, and tell your friend how Jesus has worked in your own life. How do you share your faith with a non-believer? Meet them where they are, the way Philip began with the passage the official was already reading, and drop the slogans and church clichés. Do you have to wait until you feel ready? No. Following Jesus is a decision you make, and there is no perfect day to make it. How do you share your faith at work? Live with trust and obedience so people see it, and notice the coworker who has power and position and is still missing something, like the official in Acts 8.
