Revelation 12:11 (King James Version)
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Christian testimonies can be viewed with skepticism by doubters. Sadly, that is often with good reason. Christians are people, and people are not perfect. All too often, people say they are Christians when they are not. Testimonies from these people often ring hollow or are proven false over time. But because they are "out there" for all to see, they can make it harder for the genuine testimony to find acceptance.
Why do Christian stories and testimony matter? Your experience with God as a believer is exactly that-your experience with God! Surely your life has been enhanced by the advice or true life story of another person. We are unique, but we have the common bond of being created by the same God. Therefore, even if we've stuffed different programs in along the way, we all have basically the same operating system! We are all bodies made by God.
As a Christian, do you really grasp this? Whatever you're going through, whether it's joyful or painful, is allowed into your life by a loving God, whose goal for you is to become like His Son, Jesus Christ.
Because God wants to transform you, He allowed your life to follow the path it did before you became a believer in order that you would recognize His work at some point along the way. Now, seeing it, you are responsible to tell others what He has done. That is your Christian testimony! Maybe you've been a Christian for an hour, a day, or for years. What is He doing in your life now? That is your Christian testimony. You are an eyewitness to the works of Jesus Christ in your life.
