People who serve are sharing Jesus through their deeds. But words and deeds are meant to go together in the everyday lives of people who follow Jesus. To be honest, most of us long-time church-goers are way more comfortable with doing the serving than we are with sharing our faith outside our church walls. The divisive, argumentative culture most of us live in makes it all the harder.

I’m happy to recommend “Multipli” as a resource that can help. Their 4-week Awaken and 9-month Genesis Leader trainings show how to share Jesus easily and naturally within everyday relationships. The trainings are online and live, giving participants the opportunity to hear each other’s stories and feel part of a community.

One participant told me, “My experience with Genesis Leader was very beneficial.  I learned how to use the skills I already have to form relationships with non-Christians.  I also learned how to build up the skills I don’t have yet.  I enjoyed my time there and all the people I met!”

Church leaders, similar online and in-person training is offered by PLI.
