She didn't lead with her theology. She led with her ears. When we truly listened to our friends — their doubts, their questions, their view of the world — that gentleness can create an opening that no argument ever could.

A Prayer for Gentle Evangelism with Christie Thomas

Peter didn't just tell us to be ready to share our hope. He said do it with gentleness and respect. The how matters just as much as the what.You can't argue someone into faith. But you might just love them there. "Do it with gentleness and respect." — 1 Peter 3:15Who in your life is waiting for you to listen before you speak?

Reference: 1 Peter 3:14-16

Prayer: Jesus, You are the hope inside me! Please forgive me for the times I haven’t been ready to give a defense with gentleness and respect. Help me learn to speak clearly about the hope You’ve given me and please also help me to share it with others through gentleness. Give me the bold, compassionate love needed to point others to You. In Jesus’s name, amen.
