Summary: Do you ever fear sharing the Good News Gospel because you do not want to annoy people? We've all experienced a pushy salesperson. Maybe this person did not ask what you wanted, but wouldn't stop urging you toward the most expensive item in the store. None of us want to be like that! But have you ever been to a store where the salesperson got to know you and actually listened to your needs? Even better, have you ever had a salesperson tell you about something in their store that they themselves have? Maybe it's a vacuum, and the salesperson tells you how often she uses it and what kinds of things it vacuums up. Maybe she tells you a funny story about her dog knocking over something and how she cleaned it quickly and easily. Wouldn't you be more interested in the vacuum? We do not need to sell Jesus. He's already the greatest treasure in the world. But if we are able to show others the messes Jesus has cleaned up in our lives, then others can start to see how much they need him too. It's not about selling; it's about sharing your experiences. Trust me, people are more interested in your life story than an insincere sales pitch. Be genuine and real when you talk about Jesus Christ and others will notice.
