JOHN SHIRK – This is the type of evangelism that tells other people how God specifically touches us by His grace. This might happen in a setting where we are sharing one-on-one with a friend. Or we might have the opportunity to share our testimony at church.

In John 9, there is an example of a man who was blind from birth healed by the touch of Jesus. The Pharisees asked him how he received his sight. The man answered, “He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and now I see.” One thing this man knew which the Pharisees could not deny was that he was blind, but now he could see. He asked them, “Do you want to become his disciples too?” When God touches our hearts with His grace, and when people notice the change, that is an opportunity to tell our story about how Jesus made a difference in our lives.

That’s today’s Mission Statement for representing Jesus in the world today.
