I’ve made a list of Power Phrases that students can use in sharing the gospel. A power phrase is an opening phrase that precedes a testimony about a topic. Some teachers require their use during Seminary devotionals to help students learn to share the gospel.
I have intentionally left off “I’d like to bear my testimony…” since I think it’s not a great phrase for using when talking about the gospel with non-members. You can add it in, of course.
