Exposition:

The kind of life one exhibits, has a significant impact on people around him or her. “Lifestyle evangelism” is an evangelistic approach that focuses on living a holy and pleasing life among unbelievers with the aim of sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with them. Among the many approaches we use in evangelism, is one’s lifestyle, which speaks volume to other people. Apostle Paul admonishes Timothy to “keep a close watch on himself and on the teaching” in 1 Timothy 4:16. This means that one’s lifestyle and teaching are both significant in our efforts to evangelize to others.

In Ephesians 4:1-3, Timothy is encouraged again to live a life worthy of his calling. In like manner, our evangelistic drives can change lives when we live our lives worthy of our calling. This can happen when the gospel becomes our daily lifestyle. The lifestyle of the world is full of wickedness, corruption and sin; it is only a transformed life that can change those lifestyles. What kind of life are you living? Are you a true picture of the gospel? A Christ-like life lived is worth sharing. Let your character bring many to Christ. Let your godly action speak to the ungodly.
