Let’s Go

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! Why do we share the Gospel? Well, the simplest answer is because Jesus told us to. After He showed Himself to the disciples and many others after His resurrection, He left them with the Great Commission. "Therefore go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”

Christ gave every follower of His a purpose before ascending to heaven—He called us to go and tell people the Good News of the Gospel. And through people coming to know Him, Christians are formed and begin to grow in their faith. What a privilege and calling we have! And the best news is we don't have to do it alone. Jesus Himself will be with us always.

So the question is...are we going and sharing? If not, find resources to help you share the Gospel at sharelifeafrica.org

Share Hope

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! "Trusting in what Jesus has done for me has brought me peace, hope and a future I can feel joyful about." Michele penned these words in her testimony on what's my story dot org. Before she had eternal life, Michele dealt with a lot of guilt and shame that caused her great anxiety and depression. But someone invited her to church where she heard the Gospel; and that day, her life was changed forever as she accepted Jesus as her Savior. And you know what?

There are a lot of Michele's out there, looking for hope. And we know the source of all hope—Jesus Christ, who through his sacrifice on the cross offers us eternal life. All we must do is believe in Jesus alone. So who in your life needs this hope?

God may have placed you in their circle to be the one to share it with them. Not sure what to say? Well we have resources to help. Visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org 

Tell the World

You're listening to ShareLifeAfrica! 

The word "Gospel" translated from the original Greek literally means "good message" or "good news!" Well what has to happen in order to share good news? Well, we have to actually impart it to others.

You see, many Christians believe that they can share the Gospel merely through their actions. They do their best to live out what they believe. And that's wonderful!We absolutely should walk out our faith. We don't want to be a hypocrite that looks no different than the world. The Gospel’s changed us, Jesus has saved us, and we should live it out! But we can't stop there.The message will be unclear—un-understood—if we don't take the time to tell others about it.

First Peter two nine tells us, "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." So let's learn tell others the Good News!

The Gospel is the Answer

You're listening to ShareLifeAfrica! 

How we think about the Gospel impacts firsthand if we share it or not. Do we really view it as Good News? What does the Gospel mean to us?

Well, when Jesus came back to Nazareth during His ministry, he visited the synagogue, where He read from the scroll of Isaiah. And Jesus then fulfilled the very prophecy he read: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free.”

When we acknowledge that the Gospel is the way to heal our land, bring freedom to captives, and give a treasure of matchless worth to the poor, our actions change quite dramatically. So then let’s bring this Good News to the poor, sick, and hurting world around us. The Gospel is the answer. And it is Good News for all who hear it!

The Gospel is Good News

You're listening to ShareLifeAfrica! 

Years ago, my neighbor's wife asked him for a divorce. I saw how much he was hurting. So one night, I told him, “Bill, I put my trust in Jesus, and it completely changed my life. It's the most important decision I've ever made. And Jesus can do impossible things—even heal broken marriages.” Bill looked at me and said, “Either you’re a liar, or you hate me.”

Well, I was really taken back. He said, “You know, you’ve lived next to me for 5 years and never said anything about Jesus. If this really changed your life and can change mine, well then why haven’t you told me?” I begged him for forgiveness—and then I shared with him about Jesus. Bill put his trust in Christ and it changed his life too.

Let’s not to buy into the lie that no one wants to hear the Good News. The Gospel is powerful and essential. Learn how you can share it with your friends and neighbors too by visiting our website at sharelifeafrica.org
