What Would You Say?


What would you say if you were chatting with someone and they asked you about your faith?  What would you say if upon mentioning that you were at church this weekend, a co-worker asked you what you believe?  What would say if a new friend asked you about Who God is?  What would you say if a skeptic asked you about Jesus and what being "saved" is all about.  What would you say if in front of a group of friends, believers and non, someone asked you to explain what Christianity is all about.  
At Hope, we are currently in a series that is based around 1 Peter 3:15.
"...and if someone asks about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it."
 So, I really do want to know.  What would you say?  Would you be nervous, say "God is God... so... I love your shoes..." and hope they didn't ask again?  Would you defer to someone else out of fear of saying the "wrong thing"?  Would you have an answer?  Would you feel confident?  What would you say...??

I would tell them I believe he is our Father, and he loves us all. Just like I love my daughter, he loves me. That Christianity is all about giving, receiving and showing love. I would probably cry a little bit, because I feel that strongly about it, but I would feel confident giving my testimony of what I believe.
