Day 150910: Play by the Rules

Walked into the store to pick up a couple things for a lunch at work tomorrow. On the way into the store there was a game in the entry way. So I put an Play by the Rules tract near the controller of the game.

Day 150909: Tip by the rules

READ MORE

Day 150908: Disc Golf

READ MORE

I was at the park this evening tossing around some disc golf discs. As it approached time2015-09-08 19.07.24 to leave I made my way back to my car. As I walked up to my car, three teens were walking up to the car next to me. Now, I know this is beginning to sound like the intro to a new horror film, but it’s not!

Since the three were almost to their car doors, I knew I only had a second to catch them. “Hey, guy, how you doing? Did you get one of these?” They stopped came over to me and I handed each of them a different Gospel tract. I told them that I only had a minute but what I had to share with them was very important. They were listening.

I asked “have you ever read the Bible?”

“I tried”, said the first guy.

“No”, said the second and third.

So I turned to the first guy and said, “when you read the Bible, did you start at the beginning?”

He said yes. So I told him that I like to have people read the Gospel of John first. I asked if it would be ok for me to show him why? He agreed. So I opened the trunk of my car and took out three New Testaments. I opened to the Gospel of John and showed them that it is only 14 pages. I turn to Chapter 20 and showed a section heading “The Purpose of this book” and underneath read the scripture to them:

30 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

I suggested that they each read a chapter of John each day starting with Chapter 1. And I gave them each bookmarks (one from the September mailing of the Bezeugen Tract Club). With the bookmarks I explained, these 10 questions and verses will show you the purpose of the entire Bible. They all three gladly accepted the New Testaments.

I gave them my business card with my phone number and email on it, I told them I’d be happy to talk more, but that I had to leave right then to go pick up my son. I invited them to call me if they had any questions and we parted ways.

READ MORE

Today was the opening day of the college football season for many teams. I had the 2015-09-05 12.17.53privilege to take my mom to the Oklahoma game in Norman. While traveling I had the opportunity to hand out a number of tracts. I left a Cancer Awareness tract from the September tract club mailing at the gas pump in Norman, OK. I also gave cancer awareness tracts to several people at the game and hotel. I gave out about 100 College Football Trivia tracts while walking to and from the game.

Table tops a the hotel also turned out to be good spots to leave tracts. Most of the hotel staff I came in contact with got a Football Trivia tract too!

Day 150903: First Thursday Prayer

READ MORE

Today is the First Thursday of the month. So I started the day with a stop at City Hall for 11149660_1155562681125465_7944836097753080887_oour First Thursday Prayer that we have been doing monthly since 2010. This months selected verses were from Matthew 5.

After reading much of Matthew 5 and praying for our nation, leaders and revival I was reading some other Bible passages and noticing that some people were coming to work at City Hall. I was sitting a little off to the side so they were not walking directly past me. I went over to one and tried to hand them a tract, but they rejected it. Another came and I handed him a Who is Described By tracts. I asked him if he knew who is the only person described by all the terms on the card. He took it and walked on.

After work we went to dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings and watched some football. I gave out some College Football Trivia tracts.

When I got home I had to research some things on Home Depot’s website. I decided to use the Live Chat to ask a question. After I got my question answered I thanked the agent and asked them to check out my website – www.AfterLifeCatalog.com. They asked what it was about. I told them eternal life. So they asked what they have to buy. I said nothing and told them it is about how to obtain eternal life through repentance and faith in Jesus. They thanked me for my concern for their soul!

there were several comments, I choose to go with the Cancer Awareness because of this comment, “Cancer. Save the rules one for the start of football season in a few weeks.”

So I worked all day, then went home and ate dinner. After dinner we dropped our son at a pool party and then made our way to church for a meeting. I realized I was short on time and still had not had a chance to share the Gospel with anyone. On the way to church my wife suggested stopping at Race Trac to get a drink. Great! Not a drink! But a chance to share the Gospel.

As I went in the door a guy in a white shirt with black tie was coming out of the door. I said, “I was challenged today to give this card to you.” He smiled and took it.  I gave another Cancer Awareness tract to the cashier. As we left I gave another one to another guy coming in. As I walked ot my car there were three men coming. Each got Cancer Awareness tracts. Finally as we reached our car, a teen was walking in. She got a Cancer Awareness tract too!

So today was day 1. I made a stop at the store on the way home from work. On the way into the store a man was walking out. He had grocery bags in both hands so I wondered if he would actually take a tract. I went up to him and asked “did you get your camo card?” He said no and took it. We had a brief conversation but nothing deep. Then I went inside the store. I was not able to find what I was looking for so I left.
