Scripture tells us that followers of Christ are to be about the business of making disciples: proclaiming the gospel, baptizing those who respond to the gospel in faith, and teaching them the words of Scripure.
But if we are honest, most of us struggle with the "proclaiming the gospel" part. We want to and we know we should. But, we are not sure how to get the conversation started.
We worry about how our words will be received. We don't feel prepared to handle the questions and push back that we may get. So we don't do it.
We go about in a state of guilt because we know God commanded us to do it and people desperately need the message we carry.
Carlton Oaks Baptist Church is partnering with Del Cerro Baptist Church and Stand to Reason to provide this seminar, which is designed to increase your confidence to engage in conversations about spiritual matters. You will learn about how to get to gospel topics in everyday conversation with family, friends, co-workers, neighbors or anyone else. And you will learn ways to handle the inevitable questions that will arise and how to defuse challenges that may come.
Our Speaker
Alan Schlemon, from Stand to Reason, has worked as an author and speaker for Stand to Reason since 2004. He trains Christians to share their convictions in a persuasive, yet gracious manner. Alan teaches about some of the most controversial issues of our time: abortion, evolution, homosexuality, bioethics, and Islam. He has been a guest on both radio and television, and has spoken to thousands of adults and students across the country at churches, conferences, and college campuses.
Alan’s training incorporates three components. First, he equips people with the knowledge to form a foundation of belief. Second, he teaches them to communicate their knowledge persuasively and clearly. Finally, he shows them how to communicate in a warm, friendly, and gracious manner. Alan makes complex issues accessible to both youth and adult audiences.
