Why SHARE?
We all love to share good news with others. Yet when it comes to sharing the good news of Jesus, many of us feel uncertain, unsure of the right words or hesitant to step into a conversation.
Congregations, too, can run excellent programmes that meet real needs in their communities, but still struggle to walk alongside people on their journey towards faith in Christ.
SHARE is a resource created to help both individuals and congregations grow in community witness and personal evangelism. It combines teaching, group discussion questions and inspiring video stories of lives transformed across PCI.
The Heart of SHARE
The resource is built around three important aspects of witness:
• Building Relationships: helping members reflect on how they can journey with others towards Jesus.
• Cultivating Community: encouraging congregations to create spaces where people can belong and grow.
• Inviting Encounter: equipping members to share faith simply, naturally, and with greater confidence.
Reaching others with the gospel is not always easy. SHARE helps us focus on these three aspects, making witness more realistic and accessible for every member of the congregation.
How SHARE Works
The material is organised into ‘seasons’, each focusing on one of the three aspects of witness. Each season contains three ‘episodes’ that unpack the theme in practical ways.
Participants should have their own booklet, which serves as the foundation for each episode. These are accompanied by a film series to guide group conversations in settings such as home groups or midweek gatherings.
In addition, SHARE includes four whole church sessions designed to introduce the themes more widely. Each session provides a sermon outline and a video story, enabling the whole church family to engage together.
