Share Life Africa

Urgent

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Sharing your faith. It's really the most important thing you could do. You know that, right? Our most important goal and purpose is to bring God glory by sharing the Good News of the Gospel with the lost. It was Jesus' last command before He ascended into heaven, and it is our first concern. Junior is a biker, a real tough guy and not a talker.

In fact, Junior was incredibly shy and liked to fade into the background. That is, until he met Jesus and learned to share the Gospel! Now Junior says it's too urgent. He has to share the Gospel whenever he can. Dear listener, it really is urgent. We only have today to share the Gospel, so what are you waiting for?

You just need to be willing to open your mouth and let the Lord use you. If you're not confident in sharing your faith, we're here to help! For tips, tools, and resources to help you get started, visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org

Just as Jesus Walked

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Are you walking with the Lord? You've probably heard that phrase, walking with the Lord, many times. But have you stopped to think about what it means? First John two six (2:6) says, "The one who says he resides in God ought himself to walk just as Jesus walked."

Now, those are big shoes to fill! Jesus walked on water! He healed the sick and raised the dead! How on earth could you possibly walk as Jesus walked? Here's the grace of God: even though we'll never be able to live a perfect life, we can know the One who did. We can have a very real relationship with Him and we can share with others how they can know Him, too.

Walking just as Jesus walked won't make you superhuman, but it will give you a supernatural love for others, and that love will enable you to tell them the Good News of the Gospel. Do you need some help learning to share your faith? Visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org

Faithful Witnesses

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! It’s a fact—most people who love Jesus and embrace the Bible as God’s Holy Word never share the Gospel. I was in that same situation. I never thought anyone would listen to me, but God granted me the opportunity to see that spiritual light turn on in others’ lives as they made professions of faith in Jesus.

All it took was some tools and training that helped me share. And it’s not just me but millions of others also. One Vietnamese couple comes to mind. They’re from Canada.They attended Sunday services and Bible studies for years. They are very involved in their church. But they didn’t know how to share their faith. After they gathered a few resources and some training to get started, it changed their lives. Other Christian friends saw this dramatic change too.

Now they are faithfully, fruitfully witnessing. And it's never too late to get started! If you'd like to learn to share your faith, we have tips, tools, and resources to help get you started at sharelifeafrica.org

Gentleness and Faithfulness

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Have you checked off your Christian to do list today? Barna Research did a study that shares that most churchgoers equate spiritual maturity with following a list of rules. But that's not what the Bible says at all!

Instead, Jesus tells us to abide in Him to produce spiritual fruit. Spiritual maturity isn't measured by checking all the boxes—it's measured by the Fruit of the Spirit. And the Fruit of the Spirit is produced by the Lord working in us as we abide in Him! Lamentations three says that because of the Lord's great love we're not consumed -His mercy is new every morning, and great is His faithfulness! The Lord is so gentle with us and faithful to us.

So, instead of focusing on what you think will make you look like a better Christian, focus on the power of the Holy Spirit, and spread the Gospel gently and faithfully to everyone you can. For resources to help you get started, visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org

Patience, Kindness, Goodness

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Isn't God good? All the time! All the time, God is good. We also know that He is kind...and He is patient. Just ask Bill! Bill had been praying for decades for his sister-in-law to come to saving faith in Jesus.

He patiently prayed for her heart to be softened, and she finally accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior. Talk about a celebration! You see, the Fruit of the Spirit includes patience, kindness, and goodness. This story shows us God's kindness and goodness, and His patient pursuit of our hearts! The Lord gave Bill patience to pray for his sister-in-law and the words to speak the Gospel to her. Romans two four (2:4) says it's the kindness of the Lord that brings us to repentance.

How can you be an example of patience, kindness, and goodness? Look to the Lord and His Word, and He will produce the Fruit of His Spirit in you. For resources to help you share your faith, visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org
