Living Out Loud
Description
If you cringe at the thought of awkwardly bringing up your faith with others, you're in good company.
While most of us have the desire to share the gospel, we don't always know how to bring it up. Let's face it... it's not easy to go from "How's the weather?" to "Jesus died for you"; and no one is walking up to us on the street asking, "What must I do to be saved?" So what's a well-intentioned Christian to do?
Enter Living Out Loud.
Living out loud isn't a strategy for sharing the gospel; it's about being so comfortable in your own spiritual skin that conversations about faith happen naturally and spontaneously. It's about making God such an integral part of your daily life that you can't help but talk about him - at home, at work, with family, and with friends - not as a sales pitch, but as a facet of your regular conversations.
Sharing an authentic approach to evangelism, this book offers:
- Practical steps for identifying and connecting with spiritually receptive people
- Guidance on making faith conversations an everyday habit
- Encouragement on deepening your spiritual life
When your faith becomes obvious to those around you in the way you speak and live and love, evangelism stops seeming like a duty and simply flows from who you are.
Now doesn't that sound better than having another awkward conversation?
