I think that that might be a test of courage and that you should pray to God for courage to tell your friends about him.

Ah.a very good question..I've been there before so hopeully this will help.
One of the most important things for you to do is to present yourself in a way that coencides with the scripture. The bible lays out a great foundation as to how we are supposed to be. I could toss out endless scripture for you, but I think it would be best for you to just go through and read for yourself. Paul does a good job inmany of his letters...also..1 Peter is a good resource as well as James.
As far as sharing the gospel, just remember our charge. 1 Timothy 1:5 The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.
If they don't want to accept the Gospel, dont force the issue, Remember to practice patience and caring...also, Jesus has told us that our job is to sow the seed. God does the rest...so don't think that it is strictly up to you to see to your friends' salvation.
