BEFORE I ACCEPTED CHRIST (or gave Him complete control)
HOW I RECEIVED CHRIST (or gave Him complete control)
AFTER I ACCEPTED CHRIST (or gave Him complete control)
Suggestions:
- What was my life like that will relate most to the non-Christian?
- What did my life revolve around the most? What did I get my security or happiness from? (The non-Christian is relying on something external to give them happiness)
- How did those areas begin to let me down?
HOW I RECEIVED CHRIST (or gave Him complete control)
- When was the first time I heard the Gospel? (Or when was I exposed to dynamic Christianity)
- What were my initial reactions?
- When did my attitude begin to turn around? Why?
- What were the final struggles that went through my mind just before I accepted Christ?
- Why did I go ahead and accept Christ?
AFTER I ACCEPTED CHRIST (or gave Him complete control)
- Specific changes and illustrations about the changes Christ has made:
- Why am I motivated differently?
Suggestions:
- Write the way you speak; make it yours.
- Remember when sharing with different people, you may be led to share different parts of your story. This is a good format to get you started.
- Practice this until it becomes natural.
- Make it short (approximately 3 minutes) so it can be put into your conversation easily without becoming a monologue.
