So I've been doing a lot of following up of contact cards the past couple weeks. I'll describe a couple of times which I would consider "successful witnessing." One time I was in Laws and me and Alan went through the worldview questionaire with this guy named Tim. At the end of the survey we asked if it would be okay to go through an outline of the main points of Christianity. He agreed so we went through it. Tim said he had grown up in the church but had never made a personal decision to follow Christ. When I asked him if he wanted to, he declined. When I asked what was keeping him from doing so, he replied with a really vague answer about "the world." When I pressed him further, I realized that he knew that the accepting Christ as his Lord would involve giving up the life he was currently living. I let him know that I cared for him and that he had options if he wanted out, but he couldn't see his need, so we left.
Another time I was in laws I talked to this guy named Jesse, shared the gospel and he said he wanted to pray to receive Christ. I don't know where he's at right now, because it just happened days ago. But I pray that his decision was sincere and that he will continue to respond to the Lord in his life.
