YOUR ASSIGNMENT
- put black stickers where you have been this past week...when you arrive to class go to map and put black stickers on the map
- put red stickers where you listened to someone after you asked a question or responded to good service or ?
- ask someone you don't know/or do know (you don't know how they stand re faith in Christ) a question like...HOW'S IT GOING? Listen intently to their response, ask follow up questions and learn to springboard their comments
For example:
As a sports enthusiast I often use springboards related to recent issues in sports like the NFL controversy re kneeling, the faith of the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback and players, the quarterback of Alabama, etc, then I give my 1-2 minute testimony
While You're SHOPPING or EATING:
Thank them for their good service and hand them a booklet like STEPS or wristband...but first give your 1-2 minute testimony ...guided by the booklet or wristband
I will give a couple examples
THIS WEEK...in humility and boldness
