How do you find people to talk to about Jesus?  Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International.

Now, technically, it’s really not hard to find people who are ready and willing to talk about Jesus if we’re on the lookout.  But some people are more strategic, like Richard, who’s come up with a plan.  He loves to fish and has a fishing boat.  But he loves to share the Gospel first and foremost.  So, he decided to combine them — and fish for men!  He let it be known that if anyone wants to go fishing, he’ll take them out on his boat, with all his fishing gear, bait included, free of charge.  He tests the waters gradually steering the conversation towards the Gospel, including letting the fishermen know that “just like this boat trip is free and you didn’t do anything to deserve it or to earn it, that’s the way it is to get to Heaven.  It’s a free gift paid for by Jesus Christ.”  Now that’s a “fisher of men!”  Need help sharing your faith, visit ShareLife.today.  You can read and download our Answers to Tough Questions resource.
