THE FOUR – Share the Gospel Simply & Clearly

THE FOUR is a simple and highly reproducible evangelism tool that equips Christians to share the Gospel clearly and naturally using four symbols.

THE FOUR is a project of Campus für Christus Switzerland and was developed for international multiplication. It builds on the Four Spiritual Laws originally developed by Campus Crusade for Christ founder Bill Bright and communicates the central message of the Gospel in a simple visual form.

The Four Symbols

Four symbols provide a simple framework for explaining the Gospel:

  • Heart – God loves me
  • Division – I live separated from God
  • Cross – Jesus gave everything for me
  • Question – Do I want to live with Jesus?

The symbols make it easy to remember the Gospel message and provide a natural starting point for conversations about God, Jesus and personal faith.

Equipping Every Believer for Evangelism

A central vision of THE FOUR is that every believer can share the Gospel. Christians do not need to be professional evangelists to talk about Jesus. The four symbols provide a simple framework that can be learned, remembered and shared in everyday conversations.

THE FOUR encourages Christians to develop an evangelistic lifestyle in which sharing the Good News becomes a natural part of relationships, work, school, church and everyday life.

Training & Evangelism Resources

THE FOUR provides practical resources to help individuals, churches and ministries equip believers and create a culture of evangelism.

Resources include:

  • Online evangelism training
  • THE FOUR Gospel presentation
  • Outreach ideas
  • Evangelism style resources
  • Sermon series resources
  • Kids materials
  • Bible reading plans
  • Cards and visual Gospel tools
  • Digital evangelism resources
  • Resources for churches and outreach teams

Different Evangelism Styles

THE FOUR recognizes that Christians have different personalities and ways of connecting with people. Its evangelism-style resources help believers discover approaches to sharing their faith that fit their personality and relationships.

This helps move evangelism beyond one specific method and encourages believers to share Jesus authentically in ways that fit who they are and the people they are reaching.

Outreach & Local Church Mobilization

THE FOUR provides practical ideas that churches, youth groups and outreach teams can use to engage people with the Gospel. The four symbols can be integrated into personal conversations, evangelistic events, church services, youth ministry, creative outreach activities and mission trips.

A free sermon series is also available to help churches communicate the Gospel while motivating and equipping believers to share it with others.

Digital & Multilingual Evangelism

THE FOUR is designed for international multiplication and is available through country and language versions around the world.

THE FOUR is also available through GodTools, a free evangelism app that provides visually engaging Gospel conversation tools in more than 70 languages.
