Tough Questions

The Bible points out that we are all ambassadors for Christ. So no matter what your vocation, you have a God given responsibility to be actively winning people to Christ.

Here is the tough question. You can answer on here or to yourself:

What are you doing in your everyday life to try and ACTIVELY win people to Christ?

Not enough.

Can we go back to talking about food? That is a topic I know I have the right answer on. Unfortunalty, like Joe said, not nearly enough. I wonder how many days I have actually done more to turn people away than to lead them to God.

What is up Heather? I totally agree with you. Food is mucho better. I totally agree with you about turning people away! The awesome thing that we have to remember is each day is a new day. We have to do whats right, now. He will forgive our past. Which is SWEET! Hey tell your husband and jordan I am mad at them for not returning my calls. Later!

Putting yourself in a place where you're forced to reach out has been the best thing for us. I sound like a broken record, but I'll say it again--we have to get outside of our comfort zones to enter a place where God can use us. No doubt, though, it's hard. We've probably personally talked to ~150 people and only one couple has made any sort of commitment to Christ and the church. I have a feeling that's why so many Christians give up trying. Still, I have hope for many of the people we've encountered, and that's why I think evangelism tends to run on the relational side--I'd never get George or Cindy or Sameena or Sayeed to make a commitment to Christ today, but who knows what months and years will bring? First, we've got to see people holistically and not just as souls to save.
