Street Witnessing before Easter

Last Saturday before Easter, I met up with Jon Speed of LostCauseMinistries and Ron Martinez. Being my first time out, I watched and observed and prayed. Most of the people they approached took the gospel tracts they handed out and some even stopped to talk about Jesus. It was very stirring to see some of the folks really listening to them, soaking in the gospel.

Some Christians tend to think of this style of witnessing is bad and possibly detrimental way of spreading the gospel (even though Christ and the disciples used this method) but when Jon and Ron spoke they showed nothing but love and respect and to be honest some of the folks probably weren't used to that. This is a quote from Jon's blog that I found interesting, "In DFW, the only ones who seem to get offended are either professing Christians or atheists who once claimed to be Christians."
