What Do You Do When People Aren't Interested In Hearing About Jesus?
Do you find sharing the gospel hard? So do I. And it’s not because I'm embarrased or don’t know what to say. I just find that no one wants to talk about it. When I hear 1 Peter 3:15 say: “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.”, I always think, “I’d happily give an answer if someone would just ask me a question.” So what do you do if people just aren't interested in hearing about Jesus? Learn to ask good questions.The Power of Asking Questions:Questions are powerful because they can sneak past a person’s defences. Direct statements can be dismissed without consideration, but as Os Guiness says, a good question “invites us, challenges us or intrigues us to get into it and follow it to see where it leads.”For example, when William Wilberforce began his crusade to abolish the slave trade the majority of Britains were indifferent to the plight of slaves. In order to penetrate that indifference, Wilberforce employed the use of well crafted questions. One of the most famous was a Wedgewood plate depicting a slave in chains with the inscription: “Am I not a man and a brother?”
