Evangelism tends to be fairly terrifying for people. So we're trying to make it less terrifying. We're trying to make it a bit more approachable and easy. So we're going through the acronym habits. Who can remember what H was? Hospitality. A. Somebody who's not Rachel. Come on, work with me here. Thank you, Rachel. B. Really? Being a Christian. Being Christian. I. Yeah, people were ready. I love that. I love that. I don't really remember that one. I was ill last week. I did preach it, but I don't really remember it. And today we're up to tea, which is testimony. And so we are talking about testimony. And I was kind of like really stuck in my head about how to communicate this one today. Because testimony is story, really. We're talking about story. And so I felt like, okay, surely I want to talk about story. But the more I dug into it, the more I found it difficult. Because I was walking around last night, just around the streets of Sefton Park, the mean streets of Sefton Park, and just sort of practicing my testimony out loud. And I found it incredibly difficult. And it took me ages to work out why. Do you know why? Because I wasn't talking to anybody. I was just trying to say out loud to no one in particular, this is what my testimony is. But your testimony requires context. You're not just saying it into the void. You're sharing it with a human being. And so there's a connection point that is needed when we give our testimony.
