Over my many years in ministry, I’ve come across some really useful tools for sharing my faith and discipling people. Hopefully you’ll find them helpful too.
Evangelism tools
| Resource | Format | Audience | Description |
| Soularium | Hardcopy set of 50 photo cards | Cold contacts, non-Christian and Christian friends | Soularium provides 50 images and five simple exploring questions that allow the user to engage in 1-2-1 or group spiritual conversations with non-believers. The questions explore the desire of non-believers for their spiritual journey and create many bridges to talk about Jesus. Easy to use with random contacts, classmates, and friends. |
| Thinkbox | Hardcopy in the middle of Zine and on the web | Cold contacts, non-Christian and Christian friends | Like Soularium, but with 28 images all on one page so easier to use when there isn’t much space. |
| Snapshot | Online PDF (you need to buy a cheap pack of playing cards) | Cold contacts, non-Christian and Christian friends | Snapshot is a fun and simple way to start conversations. All you need is an ordinary pack of playing cards and stick a different question to each card. Download a set of questions here. |
| Perspective cards | Hardcopy pack of cards or smartphone app | Cold contacts, non-Christian and Christian friends | Perspective is an evangelism tool used for initiating spiritual conversations and meaningful dialogue on the person of Christ.

Each game has 16 thought-provoking or fun questions such as ‘What fills you with awe?’, ‘What do you think you should never joke about?’ or ‘What do you imagine would be the worst job in history?’. |
