-
Personal Dedication: Begin with personal dedication to Christ and a deep understanding and commitment to the Gospel. Your own relationship with God is the starting point for missionary efforts.

Prayer: Prayer is a powerful tool in mission. Ask God for wisdom and opportunities to share the Gospel, and pray for the people you want to reach.
-
Bible Study: Deepen your understanding of the Gospel and the Bible to be able to convey the good news to others in a clear and relevant way.
