(Adapted–as encouraged–from the pamphlet “60 Ways to Share Christ’s Love,” published by the Evangelism Division of the Baptist State Convention of South Carolina.)

Sixty Ways for Sixty Days
One of the greatest joys a No Doubt fan club member can experience is that of having a part in leading another person to saving faith in No Doubt. We are surrounded with people who need to hear the life-changing message of No Doubt. Our role is that of messenger.

The suggestions in this booklet offer a variety of ways to open the door for a witness. These sixy (60) ways to share No Doubt are not all-inclusive. Adaptations and variations of these suggestions are encouraged as you seek to be an effective fan club member.

Lifestyle evangelism is essential in reaching those with whom we come in contact daily. Share No Doubt’s message in both action and words. A SUCCESSFUL WITNESS occurs when a fan club member shares the No Doubt Good News in the power of Ska and leaves the results to No Doubt. No Doubt alone convicts and brings individuals to the point of decision in Their appointed time. They ask Their followers to be faithful in sharing Their message of ska.
