I'm still getting used to having a blog, and have been keeping my thoughts mainly in my head (often a good place for them), but I've decided to let this one slip out onto the web.
I was talking with someone a couple weeks ago and they were telling me how they recently got involved in some program selling acai fruit juice. They were quite aware that this was one of those pyramid marketing things, and naturally I was a bit put off by their interest in it. That was, until, I discovered their motive behind getting involved. They were using it as a springboard into witnessing to the other marketers because a good way to witness is to befriend somebody first. It got me thinking about the Bible text where the apostle Paul wrote that he was all things to all people that he might save some.
Now, I'm not advocating that well all go out in search of the latest "business opportunity" and use that as a means of witnessing. However, I think that we should give more thought into being more creative in our witnessing. So often so many of us get stuck into narrow means of sharing our faith. Therefore, I'm asking that you keep your eyes open for new ways of getting in contact with people for the gospel's sake.
