Pray for souls! Seriously, pray God will send to your door, people who are open to the gospel. Hundreds of people have asked me, "How do you find those who are ready?" Simple, I pray EVERY DAY for God to send my way, people who are ready to hear the gospel and keep away those who want to argue. It has been ages since one of the off brand religious groups came to my door. God says, "Don't let them in your house neither bid them God speed." 2 John 7-11.
What about friendship evangelism? Jesus did not spend time making friends with the woman at the well. He went straight to the point of seeing her get saved. What about Phillip and the Ethiopian Eunuch. He did not make friends with him first. We should be as friendly as we can with everyone to win them to Christ. The closer you are to someone, often the slower you must go. BUT, Giving them a tract and knocking at the door of their heart will let you know if they are ready to begin with. Just do not be pushy. If the gospel is an offence that is alright but if I am offensive that is wrong. While some are spending weeks and months to get someone's friendship, most could lead a dozen of two to Christ just walking in the Spirit and giving the gospel to EVERY person they possibly can. Make sense?
At your door or in a store where they are not busy, I hand a person "Your Ticket to Heaven" with a smile on my face and the joy of the Lord in my voice and say, "May I give you something good to read. You will like this, It just tells you how to go to heaven." The response is astounding. Often people grab the tract and say, "I need that." I immediately reply, "We all do." Here is a very important clue to soul winning. Know what you are going to say before you offer them a tract. Don't wait until the last minute, push a panic button and blurt something out. Practice with a friend and do it over and over until you are confidant and sure of what you are going to say. Don't miss Mondays email to see how to do it.

We don't need a few people to win a lot but a lot of people (every believer) to win a few and we could change the world. Make sense?
