Share Life! Outreach Lessons from Jesus is a short book that goes over multiple lessons Jesus taught during His time on earth. As you read through each page, there are sections of Scripture that accompany the lesson. The format of reading the text from the Bible and the text from the book works very well and brings the focus to Christ and the Scriptures. The lessons are based on Jesus’ example during His time on earth. Each lesson teaches the reader about an attribute of Jesus’ or a way Jesus handled a situation. It then has the reader apply these lessons to their own lives.

I learned a lot from reading this book. The lessons shared were very relatable to my life today. I was encouraged, challenged, and motivated to live and shine for Jesus, as well as taught in ways to share His love. One of my favorite lessons was titled, “Adore the Lord or Feed the Poor.” It was about Mary anointing Jesus with perfume in John chapter 12. The lesson’s main point was happiness comes from Christ, and we should spend our time with Him and in His Word. The author encourages the reader to take time during the week to spend time with Jesus alone, and to also schedule times to have Bible studies and fellowship with others while sharing your faith through it all. This really convicted me to prioritize Jesus in my life. Even though there are many distractions in this life, Jesus is who I need. Therefore, I should spend my time worshipping Him, sharing Christ’s love with others, and pointing others to Him in what I do.

Throughout this book, the message of sharing Jesus with others is stressed. Great, practical suggestions are provided in how to apply this lesson to the way you live and how you outreach to others. While you are growing spiritually throughout the lessons taught, you are reminded to act on these lessons and truths. I loved that the author fills this book with the message of the Gospel. The book continually points to Christ and how we need Him as our Savior.

In conclusion, “Share Life! Outreach Lessons from Jesus” is filled with many practical, spiritual and encouraging lessons taught straight from Jesus and His Word. We all need to be reminded of these lessons of Jesus and to live out our lives following what Jesus has taught us and continues to teach us through His Word. I pray you are encouraged by this book!
