Life Week 3: How to Save a Life

James 5:19-20  
“My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover a multitude of sins.”

Having the Tough Conversation:

1. APPROACH EACH PERSON IN LOVE
1 Corinthians 13:4-8 
-love is not self seeking, nor does it have an agenda.  When we approach people with true love it can change the world.

2. HANDLE EACH SITUATION WITH HUMILITY
Ephesians 4:2
-nobody wants to talk about hard things with a know-it-all

3. NEVER GIVE UP
1 Timothy 4:16
-hold strong to your beliefs and live in such a way that saves the people watching and listening to you

4. ALWAYS POINT TO CHRIST
Christ shares his perfect love with us.  Nothing we do can separate us from it and he is not surprised by our actions.
Romans 8:35-39
