Ideas for Witnessing

Ever wanted to witness to someone . . . but wanted to do it creatively?

Here are some ideas of how to do just that:

  1. Wear a T-shirt with an evangelistic theme. When someone asks you about it, share the Gospel with him/her.
  2. Send a letter to a lost friend with the purpose of sharing your testimony and/or the Gospel.
  3. Invite a lost friend to church.
  4. Give a Christian devotional book to your lost friends.
  5. Distribute tracts in various public areas (examples: phone booths, rest areas, public buildings, etc.).
  6. Take time to call a lost friend, give them words of encouragement, invite them to church, and take time to witness to them.
  7. Take some lost friends to a recreational event. Make a special effort to witness to them and/or share your testimony.
  8. Have a Sunday school party or fellowship at your home for the purpose of inviting lost persons and prospects. Have different people in the group share their testimonies and have somone present the plan of salvation.
  9. Give a lost friend a CD or cassette of Christian music as a gift. Follow up with a witnessing opportunity.
  10. Give a lost friend a Bible as a gift. Mark the Bible with the plan of salvation.
  11. Take a lost friend to a Christian concert. Make it an opportunity to share your faith.
  12. Offer to be a volunteer sitter with a shut-in. Build a friendship with that person and share your testimony and faith.
  13. Volunteer to baby-sit the baby or child of a lost couple. Build a relationship with them, invite them to church and tell them how Jesus has changed your life.
  14. If someone you know is experiencing grief over the death of a loved one, make a special effort to comfort and tell how Jesus can give hope and help during their bereavement.
  15. Go on church visitation once a week.
