I go to a small, private liberal arts college where, naturally, the vast majority of the people there are not Christian. I've tried to make friends with the people in the Christian organizations on our campus, but I found it very hard to do so, which is a whole 'nother story on its own. Most of my close friends aren't Christian, which isn't ideal for me, but I love them all regardless. However, when I think about the fact that they will go to Hell if they don't become a Christian, obviously it scares me.
I've grown up in the church for almost twenty years, yet I have never been properly instructed on how to talk to my friends about God. It also doesn't help that most of them are very cynical against Christianity and are very closed off to changing that. So far, I've been just trying to live as a witness through my actions and choices, but I don't think that's really getting anywhere with them. I don't want to just sit them down and go, "Hey! I'm gonna talk to you about Jesus!" of course because I know that won't go well.
I really care for my friends and their salvation, and I just want to know what else I can do besides pray that they'll have a change of heart soon.
