Every day, millions of people across North America live far from God and without hope in the world. They wander in spiritual darkness, unable to know the peace that comes only by knowing Christ.
As the people of God, we share a unified mission: to know Him and make Him known. God has commissioned every believer to spread His name near and far, and as a leader, He’s called you to equip and guide your church to faithfully complete that task. At the North American Mission Board (NAMB), we stand with you as you lead.
The gospel goes forth as each church and church member takes ownership of their calling and influence to share the hope within them. NAMB’s Gospel Presentation Page (NAMB.net/share) exists as a resource to help the good news be shared and clearly understood, leading to many more coming to faith in Christ.
Using the 3 Circles evangelism tool, NAMB.net/share enables churches and individuals to leverage opportunities for the gospel. Keep reading to discover at least 7 ways to put the NAMB.net/share to use in your ministry.
1. Share it as a personal evangelism tool.
When the gospel conversation is concluding or even mid-conversation, believers can email or text the web page of NAMB.net/share to the person they’re speaking with. It can be used as a conversation guide or as a follow-up resource, especially if a paper tract is not available. “Here’s something that explains in greater detail what we’ve been talking about.”
2. Print and distribute a QR code for events.
Think of all the events your church hosts each year that include lost people. Pre-roll slides before the worship service, Vacation Bible School handouts, next-gen flyers, fall festival outreach, ESL classes… the list is endless. Strategically feature the link in these places so people can walk through the gospel on their own time. Make sure to include contact information for your local church near the QR code so you can follow up effectively.
3. Anchor a sermon series around it.
This is especially useful during busy church-attendance seasons such as fall back-to-school, Christmas, Easter, Baptism Sunday, or spring graduation, when more guests may be in attendance. Offer the link on the sermon notes or the bulletin so that guests can follow along during the message or at home.
4. Offer it as a follow-up for guests and decisions.
After a baptism, altar response, or checking an “I’m interested” card at a guest connection point, church staff and volunteers can share the link so the person has something to revisit privately. This shouldn’t replace a gospel conversation but enhance it as a follow-up.
5. Model it as a training tool for church members and small group leaders.As you consider methods for training your church to live on mission and speak the gospel, NAMB.net/share is an excellent companion to use with the 3 Circles Evangelism Kit. As you walk your people through explaining each circle, refer to this page for examples of language to use in conversation.
6. Incorporate it into new member or membership class curriculum.
During your new members class, use it to clarify the gospel, ensuring everyone who wants to join the church understands the gospel and can even articulate it themselves, whether verbally or in writing.
7. Build it into your church’s website or app.
Embed the page or link to it from your own church’s website in the “I’m New” or “What We Believe” sections. This allows your online visitors the opportunity to hear the gospel and understand salvation before they even walk through your doors.NAMB’s Gospel Presentation Page can never replace in-person, Spirit-led conversations that happen among neighbors, family members, or strangers in the grocery store, but it can support pastors and churches when a digital tool is needed. Gospel opportunities exist every day, and the need for life change among the spiritually lost is still enormous. May this page be one more tool you can use to reach your community, North America, and beyond with the name of Jesus.
