A new event from Tyler Ellis is designed to help you build that confidence while providing tools and resources to help you regularly share your faith and make disciples.
How Do you feel about sharing your faith?
God calls all of his followers to make disciples, but most Christians don’t regularly share their faith. Do any of these feelings come to mind when you think about sharing your faith?
- ๐จ๐ก๐ฆ๐จ๐ฅ๐ if trying to โconvertโ someone to the Christian faith is even the right thing to do
- ๐๐ข๐ก๐๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ about how Christianity is any different from other religions
- ๐จ๐ก๐ช๐ข๐ฅ๐ง๐๐ฌ to share your faith because of your personal struggles and inconsistencies
- ๐๐ฌ๐ฃ๐ข๐๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐๐๐ because you still have questions and doubts of your own
- ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ค๐จ๐๐ง๐ to share your faith because youโve never been to seminary, and evangelism is not your spiritual gift
- ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ฆ๐ง๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐ because deep down you believe you have a purpose thatโs meant to impact eternity, but you donโt have a clue where to start
- ๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐ก๐ง to initiate spiritual conversations because you donโt think your friends would take you seriously
- ๐๐จ๐๐๐ง๐ฌ for keeping the message of Jesus to yourself
- ๐ก๐๐ฅ๐ฉ๐ข๐จ๐ฆ about looking stupid when someone asks you a question you canโt answer
- ๐๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ to be associated with embarrassing Christians who make you cringe
- ๐ช๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐๐ that if you do share your faith, you might lose a friend as a result
- ๐ข๐ฉ๐๐ฅ๐ช๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ at the thought that the Creator of the world actually knows you personally, loves you personally, and is shoulder-tapping you personally to make disciple of all nations
If any of those feelings describe you, this training event is designed to help you gain the tools, strategies, and confidence to share your faith and make disciples.

About Tyler Ellis
After several mission trips and nearly 15 years as a college minister, Tyler launched a ministry called Let’s Talk Story, through which he trains Christians to develop cross-cultural friendships by means of conversational English using the Bible.ย
Tyler developed this training event based on his experience and research from 20 years of full-time ministry. One of many tools he will share during the training is the interview technique he used in college ministry that resulted in 25% of the people eventually coming to Christ. Tyler previously spoke about that ministry technique in his TEDx talk and in a series of articles for Indigitous.
