Can we "Sell Faith"? What does this mean? What does this look like? How effective are you at selling?

When was the last time you got "that call", where the caller starts out very polite, usually greeting you using your last name (a little formal)? It's generally my (Lisa) heads up that this is probably going to be a sales call and that I am about ready to hear the "script". There is nothing personal about it and I have not asked for whatever they are trying to convince me I need. No one wants to be a project and we all know what it feels like to be manipulated and forced into making a decision.

Yet, as believers, if we truly believe with our whole heart, the message of the Gospel and that it changes everything for eternity, how do we appropriately share this good news in a way that is effective? Do you ever struggle with sharing this good news or sharing other messages you are passionate about?

This week we will learn from one of the best trainers in selling a message/selling faith. We will also be joined by someone who is in the trenches of church planting, who will share her journey and the struggles and victories of "selling faith".

• Michael D. Goodman: Michael is the author of the Solomon Sales System a training methodology and sales training program, that makes sales normal, natural, dignified, integral and most of all, effective.
