My mind goes completely blank when it comes to these things! I am

I graduated at Strathclyde Business School and currently I am involved with Healing Rooms Scotland, helping lead "Church Alive" in East Kilbride and in the Venue 2 Team for CLAN Gathering.

Power of Testimony
October 27th, 2011 by JamesAs a church we are going through a small series on looking at those things we do on a Sunday and why on earth we actually do them! This some of my notes from the one I did recently on the Power of Testimony!
Introduction:
We sometimes forget about what God has done for us
God had to remind his people of what he had done for them especially in the midst of crisis/difficulty.
We need to keep on sharing and remembering testimony.
The Ark of the Covenant/Ark of the Testimony reminded God’s people of what he had done, who he was and what he was going to do for his people.
David kept testimony in his heart – Psalm 103
Why Testimony is Important?
Acknowledge God – It praise and worships God – Luke 17:11-18
Brings about Interest – Matthew 4:23-24
Cuts Arguments – Acts 3
Do it Again Lord – Revelation 19:10
Evangelistic Tool – John 4: 39-42
A, B, C, D, E – important as we seek to become even more mission focused.
What do we need to do?
Share our own story – Our story is so important no matter how dramatic or simple it may be. It is your story – never be embarrassed
Share your daily story – What is God doing in your life today?
Share your “impact” story – How are you being part of changing lives and seeing the kingdom break out?
Let us see Jesus be the talk of this nation!
