Ideas For Evangelism - Way of Life Literature

goodies from our health style bakery and I write anice ‘thank you’ on the box with a BibleScripture. . . . It does something when we let ourlights shine for Christ, even in small ways such asthese. I also invited my dog’s groomer to my houseat Christmas with her three children and we hadtreats and then went to my church to sing carols.This may not be much but there are many ways toevangelize on Christ’s behalf. People have growncold and uncaring, but Christians should never befound this way because we have Jesus Christ inresidence in our hearts, in our very being! Our lightscan shine brightly for Him, on His behalf.”The following testimony that further reminds us of thepower of old-fashioned Christian kindness was sent tome by Pastor Jay Weaver of Cardington, Ohio:“Here is something that a man in my church does.He owns his own concrete and constructionbusiness. Whenever one of his lost neighbors needssomething done, he takes his equipment over anddoes the work for free. While he is there he has onething on his mind, ‘Tell this man about Jesus.’ Onone occasion he had an atheist neighbor thatneeded a septic tank installed. Brother Morgan wentover and gave three full days of work for free andput the man’s septic system in totally free of charge.The whole time he was there he would tell him aboutJesus. When the rest of the house was finished theman invited him to a house-warming meal. BrotherMorgan said he would come if he would be allowedto turn thanks. The atheist neighbor told him thatwould be OK. He went over and continued towitness to him. He listened with tears streamingdown his face but did not get saved that day. A fewdays later Brother Morgan’s pastor visited the manand was able to lead him to the Lord. Sometimesjust being old-fashioned neighborly works. I’m afraidto say that in this hectic rat race that we run, weoften forget simple courtesies that could make aworld of difference in people’s lives and eveneternities.”151
