Romans 10:14 says, “How shall they believe if they haven’t heard?” It tells us that connecting with our community is a precursor to allowing them to know Christ. In this article, we will look at the different ways to Spread God’s word in your bunch. 

Mention Your Faith in Conversation

Be confident in telling everyone that you believe in God. Welcome their questions and take them as an opportunity to introduce your faith. 

But there is a fine line between encouraging and coercing. You don’t always have to convince your community every chance you get. Instead, you should focus on letting people know God’s importance in your life. 

It can be as simple as wearing a crucifix necklace or bowing your head before eating.

Invite a Friend to Church

A quick way to spread God’s word is to invite your friend to a church and hear mass together. You don’t have to do or tell them anything. Let the preacher’s words be mediate their communication with Christ.

Once the service is over, ask your friend how they feel. How was their experience? What have they learned? Would they want to try it again?

Express Your Affection

Jesus Christ tells us in John 15:12, “This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.” 

Perhaps you don’t need to mention God in every conversation with your community or invite them to church. All you have to do is tell them you love them!

Share Your Life Story

Being vulnerable not only makes you feel less alone. It also allows other people to trust in what you say. Try being specific about how God has saved you. 

For example, it will be compelling to share how God made you sober or how he helped you manage your depression. You can also tell your community how your faith helped you cope with the grief of losing a loved one. 

Recommend a Book, Song, or Movie

Everyone has interests! The good news is that God works through these art forms to speak with us. If your friend enjoys playing rock music, you can recommend several Christian bands like Disciple or Third Day, whose music is energetic, catchy, and insightful. 

You can also suggest Christian movies, such as Miracles from Heaven, Letters to God, Fireproof, and The Passion of the Christ. 

Start New Traditions

New traditions allow everyone in your community to feel a sense of belonging. A small routine like Christian film viewing every weekend will help you be closer to each other and God. They will create memories that will strengthen your bond. 

Explore Other Ways to Connect With Your Community

Your community is an extension of your congregation. Whether they are believers or not, you are responsible for honoring and connecting with them. After all, the Bible tells us to love our neighbors as we love ourselves.
