The people you hope will one day know Christ are often already in your contacts, at your workplace, across the street, around your dinner table, or beside you at your kids' activities.
A friend raises a question. A coworker mentions a painful experience. A family member makes a comment about faith. Then life moves on. A few thoughtful notes can help you remember what mattered when another opportunity comes.
You do not need to fill out everything. The categories simply help you notice what may matter over time.
Name, relationship, how often you interact, and the context in which you know them.
Important experiences, relationships, losses, church background, or life circumstances that may shape how they see the world.
What they seem to believe about God, Christianity, truth, morality, science, meaning, or purpose.
Recurring issues such as suffering, biblical reliability, science and faith, hypocrisy, or religious pluralism.
Short notes on meaningful discussions so future conversations can build on what has already happened.
Videos, podcasts, articles, books, or ideas you have already passed along.
Specific ways you can pray for this person, their circumstances, and future opportunities.
The next natural step: ask a question, revisit a topic, share a resource, invite them somewhere, or simply continue building the relationship.
The profile does not need to read like a report. Short notes are enough to help you remember the person, the conversation, and the next faithful step.
Pay attention to meaningful comments, questions, struggles, and spiritual openings.
Later, jot down only what will help you remember and engage thoughtfully.
Use what you know to pray specifically for the person rather than abstractly.
Follow up, share a resource, ask another question, or simply continue the relationship.
Use the profile however it works best for you—on paper, in a document, or in your own notes system. Your personal information stays with you; GARDEN does not need to store it.
You do not need profiles for everyone you know. Choose one person you already care about. Pray for them. Pay attention. Write down what matters. Then take the next faithful step when the opportunity comes.
