*No Formula Needed*
By: *Alyson Kieda*
_When Jen was young, her well-intentioned Sunday school teacher instructed the class in evangelism training, which included memorizing a series of verses and a formula for sharing the gospel. She and a friend nervously tried this out on another friend, fearful they'd forget an important verse or step. Jen doesn't "remember if the evening ended in conversion [but guesses] it did not." The approach seemed to be more about the formula than the person._
_Now, years later, Jen and her husband are modeling for their own children a love ❤️ for God and sharing their faith in a more inviting way. They understand the importance of teaching their children about God, the Bible, and a personal relationship with Jesus, but they're doing so through a living, daily example of a love for God and the Scriptures. They're demonstrating what it means to be the "light of the world" (Matthew 5:14) and to reach out to others through kindness and hospitable words. Jen says, "We cannot impart words of life to others if we don't possess them ourselves." As she and her husband show kindness in their own lifestyle, they're preparing their children "to invite others into their faith."_
_We don't need a formula to lead others to Jesus what matters most is that a love for God compels and shines through us. As we live in and share His love,❤️ God draws others to know Him too._
```Reflect & Pray```
_How have you shared the good news with another? What was the result? What are some other ways you could share about Jesus?_
*_Dear God, I want others to experience the loving relationship I have with You. Help me in my walk and talk to draw others to You._*
