It’s good to have some simple ways in mind to present gospel truth. For example, an outline of John 3:16, as follows, can be easily sketched on a paper napkin at a restaurant table as you speak to a friend who is searching but still without Christ. The verse can be arranged as follows:
GOD LOVED: “God so loved the world”I BELIEVE: “that whoever believes on Him shall not perish”
GOD GAVE: “That He gave His only begotten Son”I HAVE: “but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16
