CoJourners: Learning to Share Your Faith

DAY 11 OF 28

Sound Barriers

Natural sound barriers must be broken to move deeper into spiritual conversations that lead to Jesus. The first barrier is at the beginning of the conversation. It is easier not to speak at all than to initiate a conversation. Once a conversation has comfortably begun, there is a second sound barrier. The second barrier keeps us from bringing up spiritual matters in the conversation. Once that barrier is broken a new sound barrier emerges. It is easy to stay in general spiritual dialogue and often difficult to bring up the gospel. Finally, when explaining the gospel, we often experience a sound barrier that keeps us from asking for a response from the other person.

Paul experienced fears like ours (1 Corinthians 2:1-5), but he did not allow them to hinder him from communicating the gospel. He loved people too much to keep him from sharing the most important message (1 Thessalonians 2:8).

Thought: Breaking sound barriers enable spiritual conversations to go deep.  

Take a Step: Reflect on your conversations with the people on your 10+ Prayer List. What level of conversation do you have with them? Plan on breaking the next sound barrier in an upcoming conversation.

About this Plan

CoJourners: Learning to Share Your Faith

Helping another person come to Christ is one of our greatest privileges as a believer. Yet it can also be intimidating for many of us. The Bible provides insights and encouragement to equip and engage us in the process. Three important truths lay the foundation: Everyone is on a spiritual journey, God is already at work, and he wants to use you. Join us for this 28-day journey together.
