August 24, 2013 As You Go, strategy, tract distribution
I keep my tracts in phone cases. I found this “clever wallet” at the Dollar Tree. It holds 26 business card tracts. I tried 30, but it was a little packed. This will be easy to fit in a front pocket. It’s essential to keep tracts on you to witness……as you go!

Last Saturday while my wife went to Cato’s, my youngest son and I went to Big Lots. Before going in, we approached an employee who was taking a cigarette break. I offered him the new football trivia tract, which is in the September’s supply of tracts. His name is Damon. He said that he liked football. When presenting this tract, I’ll say that it has 4 trivia questions about football. The 5th one deals with what we have in common with all football players. This opens the door to talk about the spiritual. Damon said that he thought that he was going to heaven. I explained the difference between thinking and knowing. I quoted 1 John 5:13. He said that he was thinking about the things that we talked about. He wanted to get his children in church. I pray that he turns to The Lord soon! !
I like using Bezeugen tracts because they help in a witnessing encounter to swing from the natural to the spiritual. In his message “Hell’s Best Kept Secret”, Ray Comfort talks about not shining a flashlight in the sinner’s eyes. This would be saying things like “Jesus loves you” and “Repent or else!” You have to turn the light on slowly so that the sinner can see that he or she has broken God’s law. This is what tracts and using the the Ten Commandments do. What a way to witness! Turn the light on slowly so people can see their transgression. Take them through the law of God to mirror their violations against a holy God. Show them what Jesus did so that our fine was paid in full through his blood. When you have finished talking, that person still has a tract and prayerfully, will be convicted by the Gospel message to turn to Jesus with a real repentance that will give him or her eternal life in Heaven!
August 3, 2013 Are You Ready, As You Go
I read today about a witnessing testimony from Sumner Wemp when he talked to a nurse after giving her a tract. She had just read “Left Behind” and was waiting for someone to tell her how to get saved. Tonight, I went to the Chevron to get milk. I gave the “Are You Ready” tract to a man who was smoking outside by his vehicle. He said that he has been ready. He told me that he had died twice. I told him that he was still here for a reason. He was shot the second time that he died. I asked if he went to church around here. He and his family were on the way home to Arkansas. (I am in Louisiana) When his family came out from the store, we shook hands and left. I pray that he reads the tract and thinks about eternity. God has the right people ready for us to give them the right tract to get them on the right track!

This Walmart gift card display was waiting to be filled with tracts! People need the gift of eternal life!
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. – Romans 6:23
I like leaving tracts where they blend in or look like they are part the display. The “Are You A Good American?” tract fit in with all the patriotic themed products in stores for the Fourth Of July. . The Texting tract goes great in phone demo areas and anywhere that has an iPhone display. “The Biggest Gamble” and “The Four Aces And A King” tracts are perfect for lottery displays. I found a perfect blend with the brand new tract (which is in The August mailing), “It’s 2:00…
Do you want to be awakened from your sleep?”. See if you can find a blend with a tract, as you go….
July 4, 2013 As You Go, strategy, tract distribution
I have been having a great time using this tract. Today, I gave out a few while saying “Happy Fourth of July! I still have several left to pass out at our local fireworks display on Saturday. There are many opportunities to use this tract.
I gave one to a veteran one day at Walmart. I gave two to a man and his son. After the man read the tract, he walked by and said that he was guilty. They both thanked me for giving the tracts to them. Another man that works at Walmart said that his mother was a Christian, but he we was not born again. I asked him to read the message when he had the chance. Displays with the American flag are great places to leave this tract.
Thank The Lord for the freedom that we
have to share our faith in America. We can preach on the streets, hold up signs and crosses, give out tracts, and have one on ones with the lost. Let’s take advantage of these precious freedoms everyday! We were set free to see others set free!
June 30, 2013 As You Go, one on one, strategy
Last week, I posted about responses to the “On a scale of 0 to 100, how certain are you that you will go to Heaven?” tract. On that Saturday, I gave one to the woman that said 80. I saw her again on Friday at Walmart when I was on lunch. When I asked her how sure she was now, she said “100”! She said that she had repented the day before! She had prayed that God would give her a job. She was hired at Walmart on Friday! I have been praying for someone to get saved! We may never see results of our labor, but we must keep sowing with tracts! There are a lot of people that aren’t sure if they are going to heaven. Through repentance, faith, and trust in Jesus, they can be 100% sure!
June 28, 2013 As You Go, strategy, Texting Tract
The texting tract was included in the July mailing. This is a great tract to witness with. Everywhere you go someone has a phone in hand. At several places on Wednesday night, I gave this one to people that were on their phone or had an iPhone. I told a few that this was the world’s smallest iPhone. I explained that it was a Gospel tract. Some were reading the tract as I was walking away.This is a great tract to give to young people. It can be left on cell phone displays. People can read this one to lead them to God’s great text, the Bible!
June 23, 2013 As You Go, Created to Do
Many Saturday’s I accompany my wife to the Farmer’s Market. We like to get fresh produce, organic meat, etc. And we really enjoy spending the time together. It also gives me the opportunity to share some tracts and witness to people. Yesterday I was paying for a purchase and asked the person “Are you doing today what you were created to do?” She said that it was a good question and that she thought she was. I said, “you know it has nothing to do with your job, it is all about being in a right relationship with God.” I handed her the tract and she said she would read it!

Have you handed out any of the “On a scale of 0 to 100, how certain are you that you will go to Heaven?” tract. What have people said to you? I gave out one to a man that was heading to the Walmart checkout with wine. He said 50%. A women at a store in the mall yesterday said 80%. After reading the front, another woman said “I don’t know!” This is why we give out tracts and share our faith! People aren’t thinking about the afterlife and eternity. They are thinking about the here and now; not the hereafter. They need to be 100% sure about where they are going when the pass from this life! Get a tract in someone’s hand today! We must not fear man, but be concerned for the souls of the lost! If they reject a tract, at least you have reached out to them. I had a Walmart employee reject a tract. He said that he doesn’t have time to think about eternity. I shook his hand and told him that I would pray for him. A woman at a bus stop said that she wished that she knew where she was going when she died, but she didn’t feel like talking about it. I hope and pray she is thinking about it today! 1 John 5:13 says “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.”
Give out tracts “As You Go” until they know!
