Samuel’s Prayer

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.

When we learn to share the Gospel, we become part of something eternal. This past September, Samuel walked into our ministry’s offices in Uganda. Homeless, jobless, and abandoned, he’d spent nights on the streets of Kampala, desperate and hopeless. He told us, “I thought about ending my life so many times…I just needed someone to talk to.” And that’s when he met Francis. Francis listened, and he shared the Gospel. In just 25 minutes, Samuel surrendered his life to Jesus, tears streaming down his face. He received a Bible, prayer, and a bus ticket home. And just four days later—Samuel got a job offer just out of the blue! Today, he’s working and growing in his faith at a local church in his hometown. God works through believers who’ll bring hope to people like Samuel. But it’s our job to be ready to share! Not sure how to share your faith?
