How to Talk about Jesus to Your Friends

Here's some suggestions as to how to start a conversation about God.

It doesn't have to be a "turn-or-burn" sermon, but it could be a chance for you to show your friends how much God loves you and how much He means to you. Just be the light and salt. =)

#1 - put a plastic fish with your friend's name in your pencil case.

During lessons, purposely leave pens all over your table and make sure your 'fish' is can be clearly seen by all your classmates seated around.

"Hey, what's that with my name on it?"

Brilliant!! Now you start sharing with your friend.

#2 - bring and read a Christian book (e.g. Rachel's tears)

Read during recess or during breaks. Remember the interesting portions and you can share them with your friends.

Try buying books like biographies. They present real life stories that can be really good talking points.

#3 - read up on articles in the newspapers. E.g. recently the earthquake in Japan.

Talk about how fragile life is and how you can't hold onto your own life. Then maybe ya can talk about Jesus being your guarantee. =)

Can't think of more for now... =)
