Using Real Life Stories Christian Testimony books and testimonies has taken our witnessing to the next level. Instead of giving people just a track we are now able to give them a whole Real Life Stories Christian Testimony book to read.
It
is been said, that testimony shared by people is a lifter of soul and spirit,
it gives hope to the hopeless, faith to the faithless and encouragement to the
discouraged. It is very hard to disciple people in this day and age because it
takes time and commitment. Jesus disciples people for 2 or 3 years. There is no
way we can get people to make that kind of commitment today.
To
be able to disciple someone, you must get some kind of commitment from them. We
have found that if you can get a Christian to commit to writing out their
testimony and share it daily, this commitment sets the stage for the Holy
Spirit to disciple them!
The first thing we challenge people to do in our 12-part discipleship teaching
series is to commit to writing their testimony and being a part of a Real Life
Stories ChristianTestimony Book.
The second thing we do is challenge people to carry two copies of the Real Life Stories Christian Testimony
in their hands every time they leave their home and every time they get out of
their car.
The third thing we do is challenge them to ask the Holy Spirit to help them in the
giving away the books!
The
commitment to carry the books joined with the commitment to ask the Holy Spirit
to help them set the stage for the Holy Spirit to be active in their life!
If
a person is always carrying the Gospel message with them in the form of a Real Life Stories Christian Testimony Book,
they are always trusting in the Holy Spirit to help them! This gives the Holy
Spirit total access to all their Time and Daily Life!
What
we accomplish during our 12 Discipleship Sessions is getting a strong
commitment from the person being discipled to allow the Holy Spirit to led them
into Living a Witnessing Lifestyle!
The people you have just read
about had to come to a place of knowing, understanding, and accepting the truth
before their lives could be changed. Throughout the rest of this book, in
between the many more “Real Life Stories,” we will
share some of these truths with you.
In the store of “I Was Kind of a
Loner”- Growing up, I was a very shy and quiet little girl who loved music. I
was raised in the church, functioned in several positions, and knew church
protocol. I come from a family of singers and musicians on both my dad’s and my
mom’s side. At an early age, my sister and I were singing songs such as, “How
Big is God.”
When I became a Christian, my life
was transformed, mind, body, and spirit. Everything started changing. God
started showing me that He was God. One of the first miracles I experienced was
God healing my oldest daughter when she was around 4 years old. I was very
young in Christ and didn’t have the knowledge of intercession that I have now,
but I believed in healing. A fellow sister in Christ, my daughter Catherine,
and I were out of town at a church convention. Catherine accidentally knocked
over the iron-on herself, and the circle imprints from the iron were embedded
into her face. My friend and I began to pray and call on Jesus. To our
amazement, God began to remove those imprints out of my daughter’s face, right
in front of us. We never took her to the hospital, and there weren’t any scars
on her face. Watching God heal my daughter immediately increased my faith in
Him tremendously. God proved Himself to me again. I was driving to the mall to
return an item.
God proved Himself to me again. I
was driving to the mall to return an item. I drove my dad’s car, and I was
unaware my dad had been working on the exhaust system. My sister, brother, and
oldest daughter accompanied me. They waited in the car that was running because
it was the middle of winter. When I returned to the car, my daughter was laying
on the floor of the car. My sister was unconscious, and my brother who was in
the front was barely responding. I knew something was seriously wrong but
didn’t know what it was. It never occurred to me to go to the hospital. I began
driving to my pastor’s house to pray. As I was driving, the Holy Spirit said,
“Roll the windows down.” It was wintertime, and I didn’t understand why I
should roll the windows down, yet I obeyed. I made it to my pastor’s house, and
they prayed with me. God blessed all three of them. We went to the hospital
afterward to get them checked, and everyone was fine. I later asked God about
that situation. He replied, “Be still and know that I am God.”
Just when I finally became
comfortable singing in front of audiences, God made a shift and started
positioning me to declare and preach His word. In spite of how I felt, I
obeyed. Now, I realize what a privilege and honor it is to proclaim a
life-changing gospel that transforms people’s lives. I am so blessed that God
empowers me to share the good news with people that feel like good news doesn’t
even exist.
I have been married for 32 years.
My husband and I have four beautiful and anointed children. God called my
husband to pastor the ministry that He birthed through us called Pure Gospel Tracts. Our children work
with us in the ministry. God continuously blesses me and my family.
