St Francis, preach the gospel if necessary use words

Go hand in hand)
Rom 10:14-15 - how shall they hear without a preacher
Give people info they don’t have
Avoid being like bright light first thing in the morning, take

Doctor spends 90% time telling what’s wrong and 10% the

2 things he always brings up

Law

Made in the image of God
good question: what do you think happens when we die?
This reveals their full worldview
another good question: Tell me about your background did you
have a good upbringing?
As you start probing if they are blaspheming (pig) just leave
them the law (no pearls)
If someone says they're a good person, say "Let’s look at a
standard outside of ourselves "
Did you ever ...
Use a springboard , zjesus "bring me a drink", Paul "unknown
god", you don’t have to have permission just ask questions,
everyone wants to talk about themselves
if they want to blame society bring up Hitler,
slavery
I don’t believe in Atheists, creation and conscience
works in our favor
Salvation is of the Lord not us
If you go in an area and its heavy and dark stop and
pray,
Think "If you were out hiking and found a man with a knife in
his back and he had 5 min to live what would you tell him"
If it says no postage required send them a gospel
tract
Some tracts are themed
Furniture mart twice a year
Stealthy things that are fun and exciting for introverts
Leave them in a restaurant with a tip
If they ask you something you don’t know, tell them you
haven’t thought about it but if you’ll be patient with me I can
follow up with you
It leaves them one on one with Him
If 2 come in (JW), talk to the one watching and learning, you
say I’ll be anhiliated that’s not what God says
Create your own tract
Can add stamp with your contact info
Look for big events, give then bottle of water and tract or
Bible
Ex 35:30-35 "
And Moses said to the children of Israel,
“See, the Lord has called by name Bezalel the son of
Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; 31 and He has
filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and understanding, in
knowledge and all manner of workmanship, 32 to design
artistic works, to work in gold and silver and
bronze, 33 in cutting jewels for setting, in carving
wood, and to work in all manner of artistic workmanship.
34 “And He has put in his heart the ability to
teach, in him and Aholiab the son of
Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. 35 He has filled
them with skill to do all manner of work of the engraver and the
designer and the tapestry maker, in blue, purple, and
scarlet thread, and fine linen, and of the
weaver—those who do every work and those who design artistic
works."
Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will
stand before kings; He will not stand before unknown men.
And in this I give advice: It is to your advantage not only to
be doing what you began and were desiring to do a year ago; but now
you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a
readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of
what you have.
