Sermon Outline - Share Your Story Series

What is your story?

Recently I met a man who had been addicted to drugs and was leading a hopeless life when he had a conversation with a friend about Jesus. He said that one conversation led him to place his trust in Jesus. The man was saved, and God transformed his life.

Every believer has a story.

The more we surrender to God, the greater our ability to see His hand in our life.

And the more we watch Him work, the stronger our desire to share with others all that He has done.

The same was true of the early disciples.

A small crowd gathered around Jesus before His ascension.

They heard His command to spread the gospel around the globe, making disciples and baptising people from all nations.

Surely this seemed like an overwhelming task for a handful of followers, but they obeyed.

Their personal experiences with Christ undoubtedly motivated them to share the good news, and they also must have gained confidence from Jesus’ promise of His presence and power.

We, too, should be taking Christ’s command seriously. One of our highest responsibilities as believers is to tell others about Him.

As was true for the early Christians, our own experience with the Saviour is the most exciting and convincing story to share.

Are you passionately telling others about Christ?

Loving God involves not just having a personal relationship with Jesus but also sharing Him with others.

The world around you needs the power of Christ.

Let the Holy Spirit guide and enable you to share effectively with those around you.
