Duck Dynasty's Willie Robertson on Turning Darkness into Light One Conversation at a Time
As people of faith, we have all been there. You find yourself in a situation that begs for you to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but for whatever reason you stop short. The timing isn’t right, the logistics are bad, or you just feel awkward and out of place doing it.
The problem is that it just doesn’t feel natural. Perhaps you fear the other person won’t be receptive or they will become hostile about hearing the Good News. Or, you just don’t know where to start.
Whatever the reason might be, sharing your story of faith and what it means to you is one of the hardest activities a Christian will ever face. But sharing your faith is not complicated. In fact, the more you share Jesus with others the easier it gets.
Duck Dynasty's Willie Robertson found salvation in Christ in large part because a stranger went outside his comfort zone to have a spiritual conversation with his father. Phil Robertson accepted Christ and then shared the Gospel with his own family. If that conversation never took place, Willie may never have found his salvation. Thus, his life would have taken a completely different path, one that may have been filled with misery and doubt.
In his latest book, “The Gospeler: Turning Darkness into Light One Conversation at a Time”, Willie tells readers how they can talk comfortably about Jesus with their family, friends, neighbors, and even complete strangers they meet in everyday life. In the book’s 224 pages, he stresses that sharing the Gospel is not preaching but simply having a conversation. The key is to focus on what’s truly important (Jesus) instead of what’s not (religion).
Willie joins us on the Crossmap Podcast to talk about why well-meaning Christians often shy away from sharing the Gospel with people. Listen as he shares why it is so important to understand that sharing the Gospel is not preaching but simply having a conversation.
