Evangelism Fruit

DUring the summer we train students how to evangelize by evangelizing!! Here are just a few stories of how that is going.

"Hey guys, just wanted to pass along, if you haven’t heard already, that a guy two of our students shared with this summer may have become a Christian. He is a clerk at the Tom Thumb with the Post Office and they are following up with him. They are very encouraged and thought you all would be also. Praise God for what he can do through cold turkey evangelism!"

I also have some people that we have gotten to share with this summer that you can pray for...

Claire and I got to share with Sabrina who works at Arby's. She's a 20 year old single mom who stays away from church because she thinks people will judge her and is afraid she's made to many mistakes for God to forgive her. She responded really well to us sharing the gospel with her and said she had a lot to think about when she went home!She said she would even like to go to church with claire sometime this summer.

Tama and I got to share with Danielle in the food court at the mall. She is very intellectual and wonders how can we know that Christianity is the true religion out of all the religions in the world....how can you really know what is truth?and why should we really worry about it too much? We got to share the gospel with her and how christianity is the only religion in the world that can be verified and that Christ saves us not ourselves. We recommended a book on this called "If I were God I would make myself clearer" She said all that we shared was really interesting and makes her think but she's not exactly sure we can for know that it is truth...pray for her!

January and I got to share with Ryan who works at Kay Jewlers in the mall. He let us try on a 15,000 dollar wedding ring....ahh! haha he grew up Jehovah's Witness and though he originally said he was too busy to talk he still talked with us for a good 20 minutes. He just goes to school and work now and doesn't think too much about spiritual things but was interested in talking about differences between Jehovah's Witness and Christianity. We focused on the gospel and what Christ has done for us...pray for Ryan!
