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

“Beinvenue aux Etats-Unis,” I smiled. Someone treated us to a night at EPCOT for dinner for our anniversary last year. Our waiter that night was Oliver from Paris. Unfortunately, my French is more than rusty, but I did manage to say “Welcome to the United States” (a handy little phrase I’ve used over the years.). I also wrote out and gave him some suggested destinations since he mentioned he wanted to see the USA before returning home. At the end of dinner I also handed him the French “Four Laws.” I pointed out the Paris address on the back. “This … Continue reading Reaching East and West in One Day

From Max Lucado’s Facing Your Giants, pages137 -138 “She couldn’t do anything right… “And I started to grumble. Not out loud, but in my thoughts. What’s the matter with service these days? … I boarded the plane feeling cocky… I took my seat knowing the flight was safe, since heaven knows, I’m essential to the work of God. “Then I asked for the soda, the pillow… She blew the assignments, and I growled. Do you see what I was doing? Placing myself higher than the airline attendant. … Her job was to serve, and my job was to be served. … Continue reading Do I See a Person or a Function?
