The unknowns in our world make sharing the hope of Jesus Christ paramount. Teresa Snow, whose background includes over 30 years with an international mission organization, talks with Laura about being light for the Gospel to our friends, neighbors, and communities.
Laura's conversation with Teresa Snow begins with Teresa sharing how she came to faith in Jesus Christ while in high school. Teresa's experience as a teenage girl who grew in her faith from those who discipled her gave her a deep conviction to do the same for others. Teresa and Laura talk about being alongside others in life, and how to enter into their stories with love and a word of hope. This powerful conversation also includes making the most of opportunities to plant seeds and how to bridge to the Gospel when the opportunity arises. Laura asks Teresa about barriers to reaching others and yet there's great encouragement through this conversation to take the next step even when feeling inadequate and fearful. Teresa talks about her personal experiences in broaching discipleship with women and stories of how she's seen God move in the lives of those around her. As resources, Teresa recommends 99 Questions to Create Space to Talk with People, EveryPerson.com for those who have questions about faith, Everystudent.com for resources in 40 languages, the book God Space by Doug Pollock, and StartingwithGod.com as a resource for new believers.
