3 Keys of a One-Minute Message

1. My life Before Christ
• Don't glorify your past, but mention how you were Before Christ
• I had a void in my life that nothing could fill—(Ecc. 3:11)
• I felt separated from God—(Is. 59:2)
• My life was dominated by sin and with pleasing myself-(Lk. 15:11-24)
Share how you never felt you could become the person you ought to be.

2. My life changed by Christ
• Now summarize how you came into a relationship with Christ. Be sure to
mention the key elements of the gospel:
1. I realized that I am a sinner and that I fall short of God's glory-(Rom.
3:23)
2. I recognized that Jesus Christ died on the cross for my sins- (Rom. 5:8)
3. I repented—turned away from my sins—(Acts 3:19)
4. I received Jesus as Lord of my life—(Rev. 3:20)

3. My New Life in Christ
• Talk about how your life is noticeably different now that you are in
Christ. Put into your own words the following benefits of being in Christ:
• “I now have peace in my life”—(Rom. 5:1)
• Now that I'm a Christian, I know I have a purpose for living-(Jer. 29:11)
• I now have the assurance that I'm going to heaven. –(Jn. 3:36)
