Salvation through Jesus Christ. I will like to take a moment to say that this is why I started my own Website here with OCC in 2007 To offer free info; and to lead the lost to Christ. My name is E Morales, and I also go by the name faith evangelist, this way I give Christ all the glory. I pray that the Lord uses this ministry and yours in a very special way.

These acquantances usually have Sunday a.m. free anyway and then they could go to their yard sales, etc. It would be VERY low-key and nonthreatening.
I thought the guy would go apoplectic! He couldn't believe I would miss a Sunday worship at my Church. I know he meant well but I'm thinking God won't miss me in the pew one Sunday a month. He'll still have His eyes on me to keep me out of too much trouble and perhaps bless our attempts to serve.

We're talking about moving forward with it anyway. BTW, this pastor STILL doesn't have the Gospel on his Church's website. Another "LOST" opportunity…

Thanx for your insights Gary.

A few weeks ago I told a pastor that after I recover from some health issues, my wife and I were thinking about testing an outreach format by skipping every 3rd Sunday worship in order to host an "evangelistic Bible study" for (unbelieving) people my wife and I meet throughout the month. No pressure, no Christians, no invitation, no wrangling, etc. Just take a passage and use a very simple format like: "What is this passage saying?" , "How can we use the wisdom here to apply to our daily lives?" etc. The goal is simply to get people into the Word and have them see for themselves that there is much to be gained and, hopefully, eventually get the deeper meanings (John 3:16).

Serving is a part of winning folks to Christ but it is not the end of it. Unless we actually share the bad news of sin, guilt, shame and pain as well as the good news of new life, forgiveness, new identity and healing people might not even know how to receive Jesus. It must be a real priority. As a young man I attended an evangelism seminar at church. After it we decided to star a visitation program to those who visited on Sunday and the only night we could go out was Wednesday. The Pastor said, "No way! You can't miss Prayer Meeting." Winning people to Christ was NOT a real priority.
