When a person becomes a Christian, he doesnโt just join a local church because itโs a good habit for growing in spiritual maturity. He joins a local church because itโs the expression of what Christ has made himโa member of the body of Christ.
Mark DeverI guess I tend to see divine appointments everywhere. I am always on the alert for opportunities. So I prefer to err on the side of witnessing too often than not enough.
Mark DeverAdvice on evangelism needs to be tailored to individual situations. For instance, I know someone who needs to be encouraged to speak less and work more. That would be a better testimony for him because he has certainly let his work colleagues know about Jesus. It's not that I don't want him to witness about Jesus, but I have a lot of sympathy for his employer. He is paying for work to be done.
