Evangelism. On Point. Q. Describe a time in which you shared your faith in Christ with someone who didn’t know him, and then saw God clearly work in that situation. A. We met a young person at the beach one day during a time of prayer and I was deeply impressed to share the gospel with her. She received God’s word and committed her life to Christ. Later, she confessed how desperate she was the day we met. She had decided to end her life, had gone off food for three days, and had come to the beach to drown herself. Today, she joyfully serves Jesus in her local church. Glory to God!
