Sharing What Matters Most
Intro
Every man talks about what he loves sports, work, family, hobbies. But when was the last time you spoke about Christ? Evangelism isn’t reserved for pastors or missionaries, it’s the daily calling of every believer who has been changed by the gospel.
This post is part of a leadership series inspired by Donald Whitney’s Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life. Whitney unpacks timeless practices that train believers for godliness. Just as athletes train daily, men must practice these disciplines to grow in Christlikeness and lead with integrity.

Chapter 4 Overview
Whitney explains that evangelism is a spiritual discipline because it requires intentional obedience. It’s not about perfection but faithfulness, sharing the message of Christ in love and truth. He reminds us that God saves, but He uses faithful men who are willing to speak.
Leadership Application – Sharing What Matters Most
A man who loves Jesus will talk about Him. Evangelism is not about being persuasive, it’s about being faithful. Your words may plant the seed, but God brings the growth. If you lead others in life, lead them toward Christ.
The GO and DO + Resources
Pray for one person by name this week, and look for an opportunity to share your faith. Start by mentioning where you go to church. Share your testimony and how God has worked in and through your life. Point them to Jesus and the hope you have in Him.
—always be ready to give a reason for the hope that is in you (1 Peter 3:15).
Don’t just live the gospel—share it. Be the man God uses to point someone to Christ this week.
