Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started?

The Teach Me to Share tool is a good place to start. It includes helpful tips on how to share your faith.

This is your toolkit so we recommend taking some time to get familiar with all the tools. Reading through the content will deepen your own appreciation for the gift that God offers us in Jesus Christ.

Identify people you want to talk about God with and begin praying for an opportunity.

Try using the transition question found behind the information button on each tool to start a conversation.

Once you begin your conversation with someone, you can simply read through the content together as you swipe through the screens. Helpful questions are included along the way. Keep the discussion focused on Jesus.

This video shows you how the app works.

How do I change my language choice?

Set a primary or parallel language using the language icon in the top right corner of the home screen or go through the menu in the top left corner.

How do I know which tool is available in my primary language?

First, set your primary language. The titles of the tools that are available in your language will be displayed in your language. The default is English. You may also access an available language list by pressing the information icon on each tool.

Why do I need a parallel language?

A parallel language allows you to switch between languages during a presentation in case the person you are sharing with speaks a different language. A parallel language has to be selected in order to use this feature. And the tool needs to be available in both languages in order to use this feature. Not all tools are available in all languages.

How do I know which tool is available in my parallel language?

First, set your desired parallel language using the language icon in the top right of the home screen. Go back to the home screen. The availability of your parallel language is indicated to the right of the title of each tool. If your language does not appear, then the tool is not available in that language. You may also access an available language list by pressing the information icon on each tool.

Tell me more about the email sign up on the prayer screen.

In some languages, you will be given the option to sign up for follow up after indicating a decision for Christ. This automatically subscribes you to a free 7 part email series. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Is there a web version?

Knowgod.com is a website containing most of the GodTools content in web form. Knowgod.com can also be embedded on your own website.

What is different about each tool?

You can use the “About” button on the face of any tool to reveal a brief description.

Six of the tools are gospel presentations. They use different images and illustrations that are effective for different audiences.

The Questions about God tool contains articles answering questions many people ask about God, life and Jesus.

This app takes up too much space on my phone. What can I do?

This can happen when you download multiple languages. Try deleting the app and downloading it again.

Is there any training for these tools?

Most of the tools have training tips. You can access the training tips for any favorited tool by pressing the “About” button and then the “Learn how to use this tool” button.

 

What is the difference between Knowing God Personally and Know God Personally?

Besides the obvious difference of the type of images used, Knowing God Personally was developed in Australia and Know God Personally was developed in the United States.

Both are based on the Four Spiritual Laws but altered to make the language more personal. The version of the Bible that is used is different along with some subtle language differences. Choose the one that you think communicates most effectively.
