Faith gets you through a lot, but you still need friends, time to deal, opportunities to share your faith, growth, and appreciate life experiences. Sharing your life means becoming vulnerable. You need humility and vulnerability to make an impact for God in this world. You need it to experience life with gratitude and being prepared to do anything with Jesus.
Faith flashback is looking at your life and seeing how you have impacted the world for God. Have you put yourself out there when the Holy Spirit prompts you? Do you have the habit to be bold and speak about your faith? Can you see your faith mature and grow? Have you learned discipleship? Do you train anyone in discipleship? Have your learned how to deal with rejection?
True faith should help you make connections in life. It can help you reconnect with people you have once lost, but want to reconcile with or feel a pull to reconnect. Sunday school or life groups are a fundamental way to make these connections, grow, worship, and learn. You can visit people as a group. People to go visit are people who have not attended in a while, people unable to attend, hospitals, death in family, counseling need, and more.
The point of faith visits is evangelism. That means the visits need to be positive, but real. Leave the people feeling like it was a benefit for their life. Tell them the truth about what the Bible says and invite them to join you again. If it is someone you know, maybe leave your personal number to be there for them when needed. Maybe set up something outside of church because life is lived outside of the walls of the church building. If needed come up with an action plan to help them until things are better.
