Speak plainly, respect people, let Scripture do the heavy lifting.
TL;DR
- Tell your story, not a script.
- Ask questions; don’t argue threads.
Scripture to stand on
- 1 Peter 3:15: Give a reason with gentleness and respect.
- Colossians 4:6: Speech gracious, seasoned with salt.
A simple plan
-
Pick one person
Like talking over coffee, not shouting in a plaza—pray, then message them privately.

Share one verse + one line
‘This helped me last week…’ Keep it personal and brief.
-
Ask a real question
‘What do you think?’ or ‘How can I pray for you?’
-
