The biggest change for me is that I now look and pray for opportunities to talk about Jesus
‘Now I feel confident talking about my walk with Jesus. I’m not very good at speaking up and can never seem to find the right words. As a Christian I tend to avoid mentioning church at all to my non-church friends. That’s what the Talking Jesus course changed for me. The videos were like windows; like being able to spy on yourself. Objectively watching yourself avoiding telling people the good news. Why?

The biggest change for me is that I now look and pray for opportunities to talk about Jesus and the amazing difference he has made to my life.’
