A Witnessing Tool for School

“I want to make sure I’m ready to tell my friends about Jesus at school but I’m afraid I won’t remember what to say.”

Here are some ideas to help your kids be ready to share about Christ when asked:

  1. When a friend begins to share about a tough experience; listen to their story.
  2. Connecting their story to your story.  Share about a time when you went through a similar experience.
  3. Connecting your story to God.  Share how God helped you in your experience.
  4. Connecting their story to God.

Option A: Then say, “If God can help me, I know He can help you.”  Would you like me to pray for you?

Option B:  I remember hearing a story (from the Bible or from church) that is like your story.  Tell the story of God’s care as it relates to the story.  Then ask to pray for your friend.

Helping our kids feel confident that they can share their faith is important.

    This is neat! I had one of our students tell me he wanted his cousin to believe in Jesus – I think I’ll share these ideas with him. Thanks!

    Thanks for stopping by Collie…you know, these ideas may help adults, too, in the sharing the gospel work.
