door to door

Got my way of the master newsletter today and in it was a very useful piece of info. It is a pdf file that is a door to door survey. Here is my thoughts though on it. When I go out to walmart all I can think about is trying to witness to someone. However it just doesn't work out for some reason. Somedays I think it is because for years of being a Christian and wanting to share my faith in God but not sure where to go from "come to my church you will like it". And not knowing how to answer the question "I think I do pretty good why should I go and listen to someone tell me how I should live my life?". Now I know that I wasn't a Christian number one and number two that I had no clue the truth about the death of Christ and why I should repent and put my trust in Him alone. All of that to say that now I have a wall that I have built up that stops me from sharing the gospel with a stranger in a store. Now this pdf file comes into play.
Consider this for a moment (because I am). You get a clipboard and you go out to walmart and while your wife and kids are shopping you walk the parking lot taking this survey around to people walking to/from the store. This not only gives you a chance to share the gospel with a purpose but it will also keep you on track while talking with them. You have something to fall back on if you forget what you are talking about (which as you can tell I do often.. ooo shiny!!!! Ok I am back) So I beg you to grab this file from living waters ministries and print it out and share it with your church friends. Get out there and take some surveys! http://www.livingwaters.com/newsltr/a/survey.pdf

Oh and one more thing. If you keep these papers they would be an excellent thing to bring to your church leadership and say "Look these people need to hear from us not just on sunday and not just inviting them to church when the doors are open". And think about this for just a moment. What if 7 people out of your church did this one night a week. Then the good news would be heard to many more people than we can imagine!
