An Urgent Plea to Listen

It's a good thing that Jesus led by example. Where did we lose the ability to follow His model in evangelism. His example for evangelism was through relationships and not a three point sermon and a fancy poem. Don't misunderstand me, I am certified and trained in a variety of witnessing tools but none of those tools are very helpful without a relationship to "lost" people. Sometime we are motivated by a self-imposed quota for souls. How many have I won? We think of every possible way to share Jesus, when Jesus shared Himself by being himself in relationships.

I wonder what people outside of the church and Christian relationships think about all of our methods and approaches? Could this woman represent what they think?
