Shareable Quotes:

“Being Jesus to people is much more effective than trying to be ‘Mr. Apologetics’ and giving intellectual reasons for something.” – Lee Strobel
“Sharing the hope of Christ with people turns us into listeners. A lot of times in evangelism, it can very quickly turn into us doing all the talking, but asking questions turns us into listeners, which was the model that Jesus often led with.” – Shane Pruitt
“A lot of theological and apologetics questions start at the head, but what you’re doing is bringing it down to the heart level and connecting with the person in love. People need to know that we genuinely love them, and love covers a multitude of sins.” – Paul Worcester
“When I say the word ‘evangelist,’ I would like your name to come to mind, that you’re an evangelist. Even though you don’t see yourself that way, you can be yourself and share Christ in a way that syncs up with who God made you to be, and God will use you.” – Lee Strobel
“The more we hear ourselves articulate the gospel, the more confident we’ll get. And the more confident we are in what we’re saying, the more we will be able to share it.” – Shane Pruitt
