Recycling

“Thank you,” Doctor Marty said, “these look interesting.” I handed four Creation magazines to him to leave out in his waiting room. If you are a frequent reader of The Sower, you may have noticed my posts have been irregular lately. I’ve been very busy with a lot of doctors’ appointments. Quite a few of these doctors are believers, so I’ve been offering them my back issues of Creation magazine. By sharing your old magazines, books, videos, and music, you will touch people’s lives. I also have more waiting room suggestions and more ideas about giving away Christian materials on … Continue reading Recycling

The Moral Choice

“Are you reading the Bible?” I asked as I sat at the kitchen table with a friend of our son’s, Aadesh. “Yes,” he replied. Aadesh had asked for a Bible earlier this summer after I had told him that the Bible had a lot to say about financial principles. “What are you reading?” “Romans,” he replied. Wow! I thought. What a deep book of the Bible to start in! Aadesh explained that some other people had recommended Romans as a good place to start with to learn what God says about finances. He was very interested and seemed to agree … Continue reading The Moral Choice

The Encouragers

“I already know the Lord,” she smiled and tried to hand the Passage tract back. Pearl was the third, vibrant Christian I had given a tract to in the past ten days. I said she should keep the tract and share it with someone else. I would much rather have her share Christ with someone I may never meet than get the booklet back! Besides, if any of these Christians need to share their faith, I hope my example may encourage them to start. Also, last week, Jenny and I stopped in the Wal-Mart hair salon for some shampoo and … Continue reading The Encouragers

The Olympics

The two young men carried on with their conversation and ignored me, even though I was just three feet away from them. You’ve been there before, too. You stand in a grocery line and the bagger and the cashier chat with each other while they work. This situation makes it harder to connect with them, but I still try to talk, even briefly, and give them the Gospel in a tract they can read during their break or at home. The natural time in this case is when they are finished working and the cashier asks for my payment. After … Continue reading The Olympics

A Small Act of Kindness

mikeandsus

Mark had just helped Bill pick up the books, sweaters, and other items he had just dropped. They were walking home from school and Mark continued to walk with Bill and they ended up spending the afternoon getting to know each other. Mark continued on home. They saw each other around school after that and went on to attend the same high school, where they saw each other occasionally. Just before graduation, Bill reminded Mark of the day they met. “Did you ever wonder why I was carrying so many things home that day?” he asked. “I cleaned out my … Continue reading A Small Act of Kindness

The Verbal Bombshell

mikeandsus

Two VERY young boys, maybe ten and twelve-years old, walked up to me. “Is it okay if we give you this literature?” “No, it isn’t,” I replied. I stood up from my weeding project. “Jesus is fully God, guys. Seek the truth.” They turned and left right away. I looked across the street to see two young girls also strolling up to our neighbor’s house. The girls were in their teens. I know I did not handle that well. I probably missed a chance to have more of an impact in their lives, even briefly. So, I pondered how I … Continue reading The Verbal Bombshell
