I would preach what the Apostles did ... Repent and turn to God ....
Paul preached this to Agrippa and his court ...

We would then have a discussion about what a repentant life really looks like and what it means to confess Him as Lord of your savior... then I would sit down with them, like Paul did with the jailer ... speak about the Word of God ... I would stress that it is Christ that saves us ... and not our works.

We'd speak of the importance of baptism ... the wonderful promise of the baptism of the Holy Ghost .... and the power it brings .... but it wouldnt stop there ... we'd talk about consecration, living a holy life, loving God with all we have, loving our neighbors ... what it means to know God in his power, resurrection, and fellowship of his suffering .... it's a faith walk, Charlie. A love relationship.

but true discipleship would take years ... Jesus spent 3 1/2 years discipling the twelve ...
