mikeandsus

Sometimes it might be difficult to get a conversation going. You’ve been there, I’m sure. Perhaps you’re seated next to someone for a transcontinental flight, like I was last month. After repeated attempts, I just could not get into a spiritual subject with Shelly. “Are you interested in spiritual things?” I finally just asked her, like stepping out into mid-air. We went through the “Would You Like to Know God Personally” booklet even though she indicated she was a Christian. Again, I was not very confident of her spiritual foundation, so I felt I must present the Gospel and not … Continue reading Up in the Air

Persuasion and Example

mikeandsus

To paraphrase 2 Corinthians 5: 9 – 11, because I know that my life is a stewardship of the life God has given me, I seek to win people over by persuasion and example. So, how can I be intentional in seeking people for Christ? Just being around them and loving the lost exposes them to the life of Christ. • Visit your neighbor • Chat with your mailman • Have neighbors over for games and dessert Who else might I see regularly that I can get to know? • People at the gym • The grocery clerk • A … Continue reading Persuasion and Example

“Mark was walking home from school one day when the boy ahead of him tripped and dropped his books, two sweaters, a baseball glove, and other odds and ends. Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered items. Since they were going the same way, he helped carry some of the stuff. “As they walked Mark discovered the boy’s name was Bill, that he loved baseball and history, that he was having trouble with his other subjects, and that his girlfriend had just broken up with him. “They arrived at Bill’s house and spent the afternoon in … Continue reading In Light of Eternity

“Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.” ~ Ephesians 6: 19 – 20 (NIV) Is someone praying regularly for you to be fearless in presenting the Gospel to the people around you? I used to have a homemade post card with this verse on the bottom. When I dropped a note to someone that I was praying for them, this passage from … Continue reading You Need Prayer

“Only be strong and very courageous; be careful to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may have success wherever you go. “This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have success.” ~ Joshua 1: 7 – 8 “Wow!

Looking for a Change

mikeandsus

Brenda owns bobcats . . . and that is not the only thing I have learned about her that is unusual. When I shared a tract with her and asked her about her spiritual background, she said, “You would not believe me if I told you.” “Go ahead,” I urged her. She proceeded to tell me that she had had a vision of Christ. “He was as real as if He was in my living room. He was beautiful!” “Has this changed your life?” I asked. (I was not sure, of course, if her vision was from God or “the … Continue reading Looking for a Change
