Forty-three years ago when Bill Bright the founder of Campus Crusade for Christ devised
The Four Spiritual Laws, I was roped in together with other young enthusiasts for training in using this simple yellow booklet. Little did I know, that in the next four decades, through God's grace, with those simple four steps, I was to lead many people to salvation in Christ.
For many of you who weren't even born then, here it is:

Four Laws may not be used as effectively now with our postmodern people. We need an approach that will receive a readier hearing.
This morning, I stumbled upon the
Four Circles - a fresh way of sharing Christ with non-believers. This young man, with a few strokes of his thick-tipped marker, came up with a novel way of sharing the faith. It has been field-tested by InterVarsity staffworkers.
Here is the video-clip of it:

I encourage us in Christ Sanctuary to go ahead and use it in our next opportunity to share the faith. And here is the site where James actually teaches us how to use the
Four Circles.

Four Laws was greatly used by the Lord. Are we here seeing a new tool for our generation? Whatever it may turn out to be, I pray God will honour this humble attempt to build His kingdom.
