Day 356 - Not Ashamed

Emily Green


“For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes—the Jew first and also the Gentile.” - Romans 1:16 NLT

One of the most crucial things to remember about sharing our faith is that we should never be ashamed of the Good News of Jesus. Unfortunately, Christianity is not necessarily portrayed as “popular” in the media. If Christianity gets any coverage by pop culture, it is mostly always in a mocking or irreverent way. For this reason, some people who do not know Jesus personally will tend to make assumptions about Christians. They may have had a poor encounter with a Christian or church leader in the past that has led them to question the goodness of Jesus.

Regardless of what people think about Christians or Christianity, you should never feel ashamed of the Gospel. Jesus has been so good to us. He gave His life for us! There is nothing shameful about the Gospel. It is the best news anyone will ever hear, so feel encouraged and empowered to share it with those around you.


Next Steps

  • Think about it: Am I ashamed to share my faith? Why or why not?

  • Action Step: Find one person to share the Gospel with today. Don’t be weird about it – Simply encourage someone with God’s Word and remember to be gentle and respectful.
