in light of the 2 RICE events coming up, [see www.ricebrisbane.org] I've been asked by the teens group leaders @ my church if I could possibly help give some training for the teens in sharing the gospel.
Dunno why they picked me - might be cos I started our evangelism group in the summer holidays - REALLY NEED YOUR PRAYERS FOR US ALL~!!
PRAYERS ARE ESSENTIAL!!
praise! :D
:D He loves these teens enough to use my "wasted" youth of blundering evangelistic efforts to prevent them from wasting their youth like i did!
:D seeking & saving the lost is His awesome work, and He invites us to get in on the action too! -- what greater joy could there be than to lead a lost sinner to The Saviour & cause a Huge Party in Heaven?!
:D think of the multiplied joy that could be as these teens learn to share their faith Biblically, effectively, the Way Jesus Did!
*PRAY!*
* Wisdom & Revelation as to how i can best train them to Seek & Save the lost, Jesus-style!
* ignite His Love for the lost in our hearts that'd burn into an all-consuming Passion for His Preeminence to be manifested in all things!
* Raise up His army of laborers for the ripe harvest all around us, that none be lost due to our apathy / disobedience!
* much help in conducting these training sessions, having never done them before!
* attention spans & receptivity for the teens to not only listen for the whole sessions but also to PUT IT INTO PRACTICE!
Any other tips/ advice /wisdom you have for working with teens would be great, as I've never done this before!!
anything I can praise with/pray for you ? :)
keep praying & seeking to save the lost BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!
Singing Songs in the Lifeboat
The Apostle Paul said, "For me to live means opportunities for Christ." Is there a zeal to share our faith burning in our bones? It's more than spending time in worship or in prayer. Jesus said to "Go and preach." Prayer and worship are the basics of the Christian faith, but if we are not obediently sharing that faith, we are not fulfilling The Great Commission. Obedience is better than sacrifice. Without evangelistic zeal, we are like survivors of the Titanic, singing songs in the lifeboat while people are drowning. Singing songs is fine … but not while people are drowning. Let's put service with worship. Let's put legs to our prayers, and today seek to save those who will perish without the Savior. There goes another minute. Gone forever. Go share your faith while you still have time.

It will not do to say you have no special call to go!Someone asked “will the unbelievers who’ve never heard the gospel be saved?”It is more a question with me - whether we – who have the gospel and fail to give it to those who do not – can be saved” – Charles Spurgeon
