"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:" 1Peter 3:15

You cannot put a price on salvation: yours (and your children's) whose will be challenged by academia, the media and individuals you meet along the road of life, or those we are commanded to share it with in The Great Commission.  The problem has always been that God didn’t make cookie-cutter people and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to sharing the faith.

Folks have questions and misconceptions that need to be addressed on an individual basis.  Paul knew this and he talks about how important it was for him to approach people in a way that would be most effective for them, allowing him to save as many souls as possible.  From 1 Corinthians 9(KJV):

More effective communication skill will allow you to:

* Confidently answer questions about Jesus

* Avoid conflicts and arguments when you share God's Word

* Overcome Shyness

* Build your own faith as you understand that God's Word really IS consistant with science and does not contradict itself

* Feel more comfortable when people disagree with you

* Comfortably share the basis for your Christian, conservative political beliefs with others

* Help win more souls for Christ Jesus!

Are you comfortable with questions like these?

~What about all the horrible things done in Jesus’ name?
