Getting Started in Personal Evangelism Who?

Getting Started in Personal Evangelism Think about tools Home study classes, correspondence courses, tracts, CD/DVD sermons, worship services, etc. Plan your work Decide what approach your going to make to reach this precious soul (2 Tim. 2:24-26). Work your plan! Do it, don’t delay! James 4:17; 1 Cor. 3:5-6

How to Initiate a Bible Study Look for opportunities in ordinary situations (John 4:6). Start the conversation with a spiritual goal in mind (John 4:7). Keep your message plain and simple (4:7-15). Remember, everyone is a prospect unless proven otherwise (Mark 16:15) Simply ask and invite! Jn. 1:46; 4:29; Acts 8:30; 10:25; Lk. 19:10
