Subscribe to our newsletter for 2014! Learn all you can about how to fulfill The Great Commission and why we, as Christians, are commanded to do so. It's not easy to discuss faith issues these days and most Christians are either too afraid of the consequences or are doing it in such a way that it actually drives unbelievers away from God. This is your chance and it's all free! ...
This CHRISTmas, why not give Jesus a gift? Something He has asked of us. Something that adds to the kingdom of God. This CHRISTmas, give Him the gift of boldly, graciously, and effectively sharing the Gospel with others. If we are commanded to share the Gospel, why is it that so many Christians don't? 1.

There no right way to communicate to everyone, but there are many wrong ways and in today's anti-Christian culture, it's even more important that we avoid those.
