Discuss:
Natural witness is communicating the gospel to those with whom you already have everyday relationships and interactions. A biblical example of this is the Samaritan woman telling others in her community about what Jesus had done (John 4:28-42).

Body witness can be the most confusing of the three. It happens as outsiders observe and experience a loving community of Christ-followers.

Watch Two Movements to learn about two great examples of "body" witness.

Ministry witness is sharing the gospel with people you don’t know who are outside of your natural relationships. A biblical example of this is Paul’s intentionality to share the gospel in Athens (Acts 17:16-18).
