Sharing the gospel

(D&C 43:9-10)
9 And thus ye shall become instructed in the law of my church, and be sanctified by that which ye have received, and ye shall bind yourselves to act in all holiness before me—

10 That inasmuch as ye do this, glory shall be added to the kingdom which ye have received. Inasmuch as ye do it not, it shall be taken, even that which ye have received.

What’s the challenge to do missionary work?


Time, rejection/ Not open, circle is small, offense, shy, contrast, perception, friendship
=> Apathy, Fear, Doubt, Insecurity

(Moses 1:39)
39 For behold, this is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.
 
How to over come if those challenges?
 
"Ask Lord"
=>     Invite people to church activities, temple, FHA, dinner with missionaries.
