Sermon Notes Questions from the sermon to consider this week Are you uncomfortable with telling other people about Jesus? Why or Why not?

What did you learn about yourself as it relates to sharing your faith this week?

Jesus said to go and share the good news. How have you shared the Gospel in the last two weeks?

What do you think of this assertion: We can tell people about Jesus all day long and not be sharing the Gospel?

Remembering the Gospel is more than simply telling people about Jesus. The Gospel is more than an explanation about Jesus—it is a demonstration of Jesus. We’ve probably all heard this quote, oft attributed to St. Francis of Assisi: “Preach the Gospel everywhere. If necessary use words.” Do you think people can do good things for people all day long and not be sharing the Gospel? Why or why not?
