How to Talk about Jesus
Without Being That Guy
Sundays - January 12 - March 2 | Room B217
Facilitated by: Drew Angus
Most Christians know they should be trying to tell their friends and family about Jesus. But in a post-Christendom world, personal evangelism is often viewed negatively--it’s offensive, inappropriate, and insensitive. Recent studies confirm that many Christians rarely evangelize, worried they might offend their family or lose their friends. The class curriculum will be based on: How to Talk About Jesus (Without Being That Guy), by author Sam Chan. The goal is to equip everyday Christians who are reluctant and nervous to tell their friends about Jesus with practical, tested ways of sharing their faith in the least awkward ways possible.
