more thoughts on winning people

Are we winning people? If we are not, what are we doing? It is so easy to become comfortable with a church that serves me, a church that I am comfortable with, but is that why the church exists?

Tough questions. When was the last time that you hung around with someone who was different than you are? When was the last time you shared your faith? Invited someone to your church?

There are 10,000 things to discuss with friends on the back deck. At some point, carefully, your faith should be one of them. Pick a good time and reach out to them. If God's love and the fellowship of the church has been good for you, it may be just what they are looking for.

This is our primary task. Reaching out, beyond our comfort zone, and inviting people, in non-threatening ways, to faith in Christ. If we are not doing this, what are we doing?

Random thoughts. Always be ready to give answer of the faith that lies within you.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
