I have been really bothered lately about the idea of reaching lost people but not knowing exactly how to do it. Today I was listening to a podcast from Movements That Change The World, which I highly recommend. The speaker was talking about multiplying disciples and how he got them started. It was really cool, basically he went on prayer walks and then met people. He would ask them if God could do a miracle in your life today what would it be? Then prayed for the person. Of course God answered prayer and would give anything from a stove to groceries to deliverance from drug addiction. Their next step was to see if they could do a bible study in their home. Some said no but others said yes.
This just burned in me. I realized that if we want to see others come to the lord we must figure out the gifts we have that can get us into their house. Lets face it 90% of unchurched people will not go to some event put on by the church. They will however let you come in a teach the in their home.
What gifts do you have that can be used. I automatically think about my carpenter skills, and for my wife he landscaping passion would really help her get in the door. Maybe you’re an awesome cook, or you know how to fix a computer. Any of these can be used to get in the door of an unsaved persons house. We need to focus on this. Lord help us !
