    Who is in My Community?

    Who is in My Community?

    Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
    Do you remember the story Jesus told of the Good Samaritan? He told this parable to emphasize that anyone can be your neighbor. It's your job to show the love of God to anyone you meet! So who is your neighbor? Who is in your community? You may be thinking that you're not very involved in your community, but where are you connected? Do you have a gym you go to daily? A book club? Perhaps a coffee shop that you frequent? Well, those people at the gym, in your club and at your coffee shop all need to know about God’s amazing gift of salvation! It’s your job to tell them! What can you do to better represent Him and share the Gospel with those around you? Ask God to open your eyes to the community He has placed around you and ask for opportunities to share with them the love of Jesus Christ! He’ll use you in your sphere of influence.

    Reaching Our Neighbors For Christ

    Reaching Our Neighbors For Christ

    Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
    Are you hesitant to share the Gospel with your neighbors? You know, one day, as my wife and I were out on a walk, a boy who lived next door joined us and told us his mother had moved out earlier that day. Well, it broke my heart. When I saw his father on their porch, I worked up the courage to walk up and tell Bill how sorry I was to hear this. And then I shared that Jesus is the most important thing to me, He had changed my life, giving me peace and comfort during difficult times. Well, Bill looked at me and said, “…you’re a liar.” He said, “You’re my friend, and you’ve lived next to me for five years. You’ve never told me about Jesus!" Well, you know, I had to apologize to Bill for not sharing the Good News sooner. And soon, Bill gave his heart to Jesus. His wife did, too; and they are happily married today. You know, we can make a difference, by telling our communities about the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Maybe you don’t know how?

    Hospitality and the Gospel

    Hospitality and the Gospel

    Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
    Are you one of those people who get excited to host over the holidays? Does that fill your heart with joy? If I can be honest, I am not naturally one of those people. But you know what? It is an incredible gift that God calls us—both introverts and extroverts—to be hospitable to others by making time for them. It's through our lives that the people closest to us can see Jesus; and often times, it gives us opportunities to share the greatest gift of all—the Good News of the Gospel. So how do we begin? Simply, start with people you know. Invite a few friends to a dinner party, a co-worker for a cup of coffee, or some neighbors to join you for a Bible study in your home. Be open and real. Share your story, and listen to theirs. Allow them to ask questions. Be honest if you don’t know the answers, but promise to follow up later. Share the Gospel in a simple, easy-to-understand manner.

    Invite Them In

    Invite Them In

    Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
    Did you know that the disciples often gathered in their homes, interacting with those who didn’t know Christ? The Bible says in Acts two that “every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." People were coming to know Christ every single day. Isn’t that amazing? But how did that happen? Unbelievers heard the Gospel and saw it in action. It’s that simple. Hospitality is not something that we do if we have extra time – it’s what we’re called to do if we’re called Christians. Our homes don’t have to be perfect, and we don’t have to be flawless. But when others enter our homes and lives, they see first-hand how the Gospel affects us, which gives us an opportunity to share it with them. To learn more about how you can do just that, visit our website at www.sharelife.today.

    Making Time

    Making Time

    Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
    The holidays are a wonderful time for families to remember the many blessings in our lives. We invite family and friends into our homes for a special meal. We create a warm and welcoming environment and openly share what we are thankful for. It is also a wonderful time to share what Christ personally has done for us. But we can also make time in our lives to invite others to join us throughout the year as a way to share the Gospel. Each of us have a network of relationships within our families, our jobs, our neighbors, our schools, and yes even our social networks that create opportunities to begin spiritual conversations. God desires to reach into the lives of those who are close to us so that they too may be brought into His forever family. So how do you begin? Invite a colleague out for a cup of coffee or video chat a family member or friend. Ask them about their life and share how Christ has changed yours through the Gospel.

    Thankful Every Day

    Thankful Every Day

    Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
    So Thanksgiving is now over, and we move on to a new season...but did you know that our gratitude should continue? You can know from even a simple search online how being thankful each day can benefit us both mentally and physically. But that's not what I'm talking about. As Christians, we're thankful each and every day because God doesn’t change. Whether it's Thanksgiving where we're focused on being grateful for how He has provided for us or the week after where we go back to our "normal" way of life, we should be grateful. Because you know what? God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow—and His love for us continues each new day. And we can share our gratitude with others by telling them what Jesus has done for them on the cross! So let's make it a priority to be thankful each and every day. For more resources to help you in sharing your faith with your friends, family, relatives, and neighbors, visit our website at www.sharelife.today.
