Hi Guys. We have an event in our town called "Baldrics Big Day Out.". Me and 2 other men went to this event with flipcharts that tell the Gospel by doing one on one evangelism. This was my first time using a flipchart and so I had practised a lot before I went out (10-15 hours).
While doing this I was able to tell the Gospel to 40+ people. Out of these people, about 6 of them said that they need to start putting their faith in Christ and turn from their sin. But 2 of these people were really, really genuine. You could see an earnestness in them. This made me so happy.
There was also one man who was in his late 50's who looked a little bit rough, and I thought he was going to be a problem. I first showed him his sin and during this, he was getting angrier and angrier. I was feeling really nervous about how angry he was going to get. But then when I told him about the cross, he changed. He quietened down and then started to listen. And by the end of what I had to say, he was actually encouraging me. He told me that what I said actually made sense and that he needed to think seriously about it. I saw a major change in him. I have told the Gospel to quite a lot of people, and I have come across angry people before, but this was the first time I have ever seen the Gospel sink into an angry person. I felt such joy to see that God was working in him. It was amazing. I hope to see him again.
I also had one other person who goes to a local youth group who said he believed in God, but he was shocked when he heard the Gospel. He had never heard it in such a way. I could see a light flick on in him and he became excited. He finally had a proper understanding of what God did for us.
I also had a number of people who I spoke to, tell me that I needed to tell as many people as possible.
This was so encouraging.
One of the other men I went out with, who was only new to flipchart evangelism got a bit of a rough time though (second time using the flipchart and it had been a long time since his last time doing it). Right from the start, his first person was a trans person, and this person gave him grief and he struggled. In total, he had 3 trans people, and they were all a big issue. But he continued and he did not let it get to him. So, he done well.
The last person who was with us, is a bit of an old hand at this type of evangelism. He has been doing it for many years. He was able to speak to many people and they really enjoyed it.
So please, equip yourselves to share. Do not leave it up to your church to tell you how to do it. Learn. Write the Gospel out and memorize it. Watch on YouTube how other people do it. Learn.
If you love your neighbour as you love yourself, then you would do anything to save them. So, learn to share the Gospel.
