We’re looking at ‘Your story’ again this week – what it means to tell friends about Jesus.

We received a couple of emails from you lot telling us your testimony off the back of last weeks email– Awesome!

Here’s a bit from one of them:

He died so that I might have a second shot at life!. I was sitting in that room, guilty, and then Jesus walks in and says "hang on guys, you've got the wrong person, I did it". he took the blame for what I did. so because of this I cant help but live my life for Jesus!!! He gave me a future!! he forgave me! and if that wasn't enough, he doles out lots of freebies that I don't deserve like awesome friends and sporting ability and a loving family! how amazing is this guy!!!!!!!!!

It's thrilling to receive emails like this one – keep them coming in!

So here’s the first tip in giving your testimony

TIP NO 1 – Have a good structure

A suggested structure

Testimony Outline: 3 stages.

Before Jesus – Who you were without him

Christ Centred – What it was that drew you to believe?/How you became a Christian/What did Jesus actually achieve for you?

After Jesus – How that affects your life now (outlook, through tough times, ambitions, hopes)

That’s only a suggestion – one that I think works brilliantly though!

So have another go – telling your testimony in 2 minutes and breaking it down into these 3 sections. Of course this structure is all under the surface of what you actually say!

Again – Get those testimony’s emailed in – love to read them!

Go well and get practising your testimony!!
