“Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” – Matthew 5:16 Barry sat alone by the window, eating his sandwich and soup. He seemed like a kind, grandfatherly type, like someone you would enjoy as a neighbor. He was willing to answer our survey questions. “Who is God in your understanding,” Andi asked. “He is life.” Barry explained. “He is everything,” We also learned that he felt mankind was in a mess.

Ever since the attacks on America on September 11th, 2001, Campus Crusade for Christ has published evangelistic mini magazines you can use as witnessing tools. I will keep you posted on the Recommended Resources page on how you can obtain them. Almost a year after the attack on the Pentagon, our family took a vacation to Washington, D.C.

I am bursting with ideas and stories, but I do not want to overwhelm you. So, my plan is to write about once per week. Generally, I will share thoughts, Scripture, motivation, and witnessing stories. Please invite others to sign up. Also remember to come to the site to share comments on something you’ve read or to read other’s comments. Another good reason for not flooding your inbox comes from Quotes To Live By: Learning to Listen To Those Who Suffer For Christ by Alex Buchan (page 8). An itinerant preacher in a closed country would leave five verses for … Continue reading A Little At A Time
