Facing Your Fears
Happy Valentine's Day to you this week. We pray that your Valentine's Day outreach will go well as you reach out to many students on your campus. This week we want to encourage you to break the fear barrier associated with sharing the gospel on campus. Here are some real apprehensions and fears that you and some of your students may face:
- Lord, I'm afraid of what others will think of me.
- I'm afraid they'll think I'm stupid or weird when I bring up Christ.
- I feel awkward talking about Christ with people who've been my friends for so long.
- I tried to share before and blew it. I'm afraid I'll just mess it up again.
- Lord, I'm afraid they'll ask me a question I can't answer.
- I'm afraid people don't want to hear about you so I feel strange bringing you up in a conversation.
- Lord I'm afraid people will reject me and make fun of me for believing in You. They don't understand my faith.
Prayers That Break Free (No longer available) is a prayer resource that you or others on your campus can use to pray through these fears. Make some time to seek the Lord regarding the fears and apprehensions you face as you seek to share your faith with others. And encourage others on your campus to use this prayer resource.
Keeping yourself and your small group focused on evangelism can be a motivational challenge. Consider covering one of these motivational Bible studies from the book of Acts (No longer available) this week.
Take a major step of faith, take someone out witnessing this week and use the Quest survey. Maybe you can make this a weekly activity with those who will go with you. Be sure to train everyone in the Big Six first. This is where the rubber meets the road. Go for it!
Talk to you next week.
