Who is Jesus Christ?

We just had campus evax(evangelism) today. Promoting the Alpha course for CCM, Sam, Hannah and myself went forth into battle while other soldiers were sidelined by class, placement or assignments. I don't condemn them one iota as it is a Christian's duty to attend class and do well. I was inspired by this interviewer who went around asking people "Who is Jesus Christ?" and taping their response. I decided that this could be a good conversation starter as we handed out fliers.

Its always better to have a plan or system when you do public evangelism unless you are a seasoned veteran which none of us are. So this is the plan of attack that I taught the troops.

Stephen/CCM Member: Hey, how you going?

Stranger: Not too bad.

Step/CCM: We were just doing a simple survey around campus asking for students' opinion on a matter. Can I ask for your opinion?

Stranger: Sure

Step/CCM: Who is Jesus Christ?

Stranger: Some religious dude.

Step/CCM: I think that is the most important question that everyone has to answer. Who is Jesus Christ to them. Would you be interested in finding out more about him?

Stranger: Not really

Step/CCM: Well, I'm from a club on campus called CCM and we're doing this course to help understand more about Jesus and the Christian faith. If you ever feel like finding out more, we meet near uni. Here's a flier.

Stranger: Cheers

Step/CCM: Have a good day.


After a few role plays we were good to go! Our work today didn't bring any obvious results but our confidence is in Christ. We only obey his command.
