Sharing Your Story

A step-by-step worksheet to help you write and practice your personal testimony in under 3 minutes.

Your story is evidence nobody can argue with: it's simply what happened to you. This worksheet builds a tight, natural 3-part testimony you can actually use in conversation, not a rehearsed speech.

Part 1: Before (30–45 seconds)

What was life like before faith became real to you? Don't just say "I was lost." Get specific. What did you actually believe, chase, or struggle with?

Fill in: Before, I believed ___. I was chasing ___. Underneath it, I struggled with ___.

Part 2: Turning Point (45–60 seconds)

What happened (a moment, a season, a person, a realization) that changed things? This doesn't need to be dramatic. Slow, quiet turning points are just as real as sudden ones.

Fill in: It started to change when ___. What I began to understand was ___.

Part 3: After (30–45 seconds)

What's actually different now? Not "I'm perfect," but what's genuinely changed in how you think, live, or relate to God and others?

Fill in: Now, ___. It hasn't made everything easy, but ___.
Practice tip: Say it out loud to a friend and time yourself. If it's over 3 minutes, that's fine for a first draft. The goal is finding the version you'd actually say in a real conversation, not memorizing a script word-for-word.
