Start Gospel conversations. Give reasons for hope.
ENGAGE! is a deck of challenge cards that gets you out of your seat and into real conversations about Jesus. Draw a card, pray, and do what it says. Every card comes with a few notes for when the hard questions come.
Faith that gets up and moves
Most Christians want to talk about Jesus. Plenty of us freeze when it's time to start. ENGAGE! gives you a place to begin.
Some cards ask you to do something kind and name Jesus as the reason. Some give you a question to ask a friend over coffee. Some put a real objection in front of you, like "the Bible was changed over time" or "evil proves there is no God," and help you answer with gentleness and respect.
The small print on each card is there for when people push back. It gives you a short answer, a few Bible references, and a book or website for going deeper. You won't have every answer, and you don't need to. You just need to take the next step.
"...be doers of the word, and not hearers only..." James 1:22 (ESV)
Four steps. That's the whole game.
- 1. Draw a card
Pick an Action, Conversation, or Wild card.
- 2. Do the challenge
Pray, then obey. Speak with grace and truth.
- 3. Earn points
Each card is worth 1, 2, or 3 points. The bolder the step, the more it's worth.
- 4. Play solo or with others
Keep score, or work as a team to share the gospel and make disciples.
Most points wins, but the real goal is faithfulness. Only God gives the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6).
Three kinds of cards
Action cards (25)
Get up and go. Buy someone a coffee, write a note, serve a neighbor, invite a friend to church, and tell them why you did it.
Conversation cards (19)
Start with a question worth asking. What happens when we die? Can the Bible be trusted? Did Jesus really rise? Listen first, then share the hope you have.
Wild cards (3)
The boldest cards in the deck, each worth 3 points. Name your friend's biggest objection, tell why you believe in two sentences, or share one true thing about God.
More than a dare
Every card is built the same way, so you always know where to look.
- The challenge. One clear thing to do or say.
- Points. The badge in the corner shows 1, 2, or 3.
- When they push back. A short apologetics note for the most common objection.
- Scripture. Bible references so you can read the passages for yourself.
- Go deeper. A trusted book or website, like The Case for Christ (Lee Strobel), Mere Christianity (C.S. Lewis), or Tactics (Greg Koukl).
Made for groups that want to go, not just know
Youth groups
Students love a challenge. Give each one a card on Wednesday night and hear the stories next week.
Small groups
Draw a card at the end of your study and hold each other to it. It turns what you learned into something you do.
Families
Keep the deck on the kitchen table. Parents and kids can take a card together and learn to talk about Jesus at home first.
Churches
Use it for an outreach season, a class on sharing your faith, or a church-wide month of engaging your neighbors.
Pray first. Then draw a card.
