Summary: Sharing our faith is not easy, especially if we don't feel gifted in evangelism. I should know -- as a young man, I was convinced I didn't have the gift of evangelism. It was obvious. No matter how hard I tried, no one was coming to faith in Jesus Christ. Nothing I did seemed to make a difference. So, I decided to resign myself to simply teaching other believers. In the middle of a lesson I was leading, a woman felt convicted of her sins and asked Christ to purify her heart. Through that, I learned that God uses my gift of teaching to bring people to Jesus.The Lord has created each of us differently with different gifts. We have different tendencies and different personalities. But God still calls us to be salt and light to those around us, regardless of whether he has called us to be teachers or firemen or full-time evangelists. Each one of us is an evangelist. We may just use different gifts to evangelize or prefer different methods of sharing our faith. For example, if you have the gift of hospitality, use that to lead others to Jesus. If you have the gift of service, use that to lead others to Jesus. It doesn't matter what your gift is, each of us can lead another to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
