"For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" -Galatians 5:14
How can we best share the gospel with others? There is an art to doing
it, for sure. I remember trying to share Jesus with a friend of mine
when I was young, and she asked me why she should believe in Jesus. I
pleadingly replied, "So you don't go to hell!"
Thankfully, there is a much better way to let people know about Jesus' love for them.
Leif Hetland's main passion is to go to places where they have never
heard the name of Jesus - especially in Muslim countries. Since the
inception of his ministry, thousands have come to know Jesus all over
the world. Leif has this to say about how to be successful sharing
Jesus with others: "As soon as love has an agenda, it is no longer
love." He's said he's had the greatest success loving people, serving
them, and bringing God's kingdom into their lives - without having an
agenda. Naturally the leaders they talk to want to know what is
different. Healing and miracles are a big part of what they do.
"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud
or rude. It does not demand its own way." - 1 Corinthians 13:4
