Producer and writer, Phil Cooke, explains to us that we’re surrounded by people every day, at the office, in your neighborhood, even your family, who are desperate to hear a message of hope, so reach out and connect with them!

Love On People in Jesus’ Name
Remember to always connect your acts of kindness to God. A cup of cold water is just a cup of cold water, unless it’s in Jesus’ name! Always look for ways to tie your successes, your kindness, and everything you do in life back to God.
Why Don’t Christians Share
Sharing your faith is not optional, it is mandated by God in the Great Commission. Though many Christians know they should share their faith, some still don’t . . . why is that? Pastor and Author, Greg Laurie, gives us some insight on sharing our faith with everyone we meet!
Connect A Story to Their Need
We have so many stories in our lives that can impact everyone around us. Find a story that connects with that person’s need and share with them how God has impacted your life through that experience. Connecting a story to someone’s need is a perfect way to begin sharing your faith!
Find A Prayer Need
Ray Pokorny, father and Sr. Vice President of Masterworks, shares a great way to start sharing your faith by finding a prayer need for a person and asking if you can pray for them. Look for opportunities to share your experiences of how God is moving in your life that relates to their need!
Live a Life of Joy
Actions speak before our words, so by living a life of joy, people will see that and want it for themselves. Be sure to always connect your joy to God so they know who your source is!
God’s Purpose
People often spend their entire lives wondering what God’s purpose is for their life? Like an itch you can’t scratch, no matter how much time and money you give to your church and other ministries, you know something is still missing . . . Joy! Hear me on this, it’s not about your purpose . . . God doesn’t have one purpose for you and another for me and another for himself! He has but one purpose, the redemption of mankind, to seek and save the lost, that none should be lost! Sharing your faith is not an add-on to being a Christian, it’s what being a Christian is all about! If you’re a Christian, the only thing that will matter 100 years from now is how many people will be in Heaven, on their way to Heaven, and not going to Heaven because of your influence!
Herb Ellingwood – The Search for Joy
Barry Meguiar has been sharing his faith for over 40 years! Learn how Herb Ellingwood, the legal affairs secretary for Governor Reagan, was the spark that ignited Barry into the “full-time ministry” of sharing his faith! You can have the same never-ceasing joy that Barry gets on daily basis and start living out God’s purpose for your life!
All Things Work Together for Good
Always remember that God, not man, is your source for everything. When you get turned down for the sale, or by the bank, or have a flat tire, or find yourself in a chemo ward, it’s never by accident when you’re living your life for God’s purpose. God never says “oops!” He’s up to something! People don’t expect you to love on them when things go south for you. It’s not natural, it’s supernatural, and every time you love on people, in Jesus’ name, when things are bad, you’re telling God your trust is in Him and not in man, and you unleash His provision for making everything in your life work for good!
Change Your Environment
We’re all called to be salt and light, but what is it that they both have in common? They both change their environment. We cannot let our environment change us! We must continue to remember that God is our source for everything and we must fulfill His mandate to share His love with everyone we meet!
