Come And Tell Us About God!

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! When we have a personal encounter with the risen Savior, everything changes. What matters to us is different. What we spend our time doing changes.

Jesus commissioned us before he ascended to heaven, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations!" We need to be about the Father's business now, before it's too late! Ron, who was a missionary, went out with a team to a very remote village in Nigeria. They saw five elderly men sitting on a wall, and one of the men said, "Come and tell us about God!” Ron joyfully shared the Gospel with them. That day, all five men prayed to receive Jesus and the gift of eternal life. Afterwards, one of the men asked Ron, “How long have you known about this Jesus?” Ron counted up the number of years. And then the next question was like a spear through Ron’s heart.

“Why did you wait so long to come?” Let me encourage you—today is the day to share the Gospel! Hear more of Ron's story at sharelifeafrica.org

A Natural Response

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! What is the natural response to a Savior who loves us so much that He came to earth as a baby, lived a perfect life, died on the cross for our sins, rose again from the dead, and is in Heaven now offering us the free gift of eternal life?

Well, it's to tell others about Him! When we put our trust in Jesus, He gives us new life because of His resurrected one! And out of gratitude, we should be always be ready to pray, give, or share the Gospel with others. This is exactly what happened in Ron's life. When Christ seemed to call him to do the impossible through His call to Africa and challenge to reach every nation with the Gospel, he said..."You Want Me To Do What?!?" And yet he responded in gratitude and obedience, and stepped out in faith.

How can you do the same this week where we celebrate Jesus' resurrection? For a full interview of Ron, visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org

The Resurrection and the Life

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! This week is one of my favorite weeks out of the year. Why? Because it reminds us of a wonderful truth from the Word of God: Jesus is the resurrection and the life.

There are so many things on this earth that have been corrupted by sin such as sickness, loneliness, anxiety, depression, death...the list could go on and on. But you know what? Jesus has brought us life. Through his resurrection, He has brought freedom and hope to us that combats these things. Jesus works miracles every day in that He takes dead hearts and calls them to life. When we put our faith in Him, we are made alive! And He has given us an amazing purpose: to share the Good News of His death and resurrection with others.

Who do you need to share the hope found in Jesus with? To hear from a missionary who had this exact call in his life and has shared fifty extraordinary stories of God's faithfulness, visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org

A Dangerous Prayer

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Jesus is alive! He is risen! And you know what that means? Our risen Savior has power over death and sin. And when we put our trust in Him, the Word of God says that the same power that rose Jesus from the grave lives in us! And it changes us from the inside out.

For Ron, the change caused him to begin to pray dangerous prayers. Do you know what do I mean by dangerous prayers? Well, after being a Christian for two years, Ron prayed, "Lord, I’ll be anything You want me to be, I’ll go anywhere You want me to go, and I’ll do anything You want me to do." And guess what? God answered his prayer and called him into full-time ministry. Ron was called to Africa, where millions have heard the Gospel through his ministry there.

Your Story Starts With His Story

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Personal stories are compelling. Our experiences not only shape who we are, they connect us to others as we tell them our story.

The Bible tells us that we will defeat Satan by "the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony." Your story is powerful! And on this Easter week where we celebrate Jesus' death and resurrection, let me remind you—your story starts with His story. His death was the sacrifice for our sins and He gives us His perfect righteousness when we put our full trust in Him. And now, we have a relationship with God that has us on a journey of sanctification —where He is changing us from the inside out.

As you share with others how your decision to put your faith in Jesus has impacted your life, you will gain opportunities to tell them the Good News of the Gospel. For more resources to help you share your faith this Easter, visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org
