    A good question that we should be asking ourselves alot more of. I tried to share Jesus with my neighbour recently and it did not go real well. She pretty much laughed at the idea of going to church. Yet she has some pretty serious problems in her life and I know that Jesus is the answer for her.

    I witness whenever the opportunity comes, yes I stuff it up, but sometimes I dont and I can share that I have been successfull on a couple of occasions.

    I am praying for her that God will help me to get past the front that she puts up so that we can discuss what the real issues are.

    I witnessed today to an older Catholic lady from Portugal who has a very ill husband. She put up no resistance but falls back on the Catholic answers to everything. :( Her name is Luisa.

    I am witnessing to many families who have lost loved ones in death, for I am a pastor and a funeral director.

    Many have told me that I said things they've never heard before and some of them now attend the church I pastor.

    Some are resisting by refusing to accept Christ and others are too busy with families, work, etc.

    I have many concerns and prayer requests, unspoken in this forum.

    Rufas,
    You may have a little more unique witnessing method due to you dual vocations. Could you share with us a little please how you witness.I don't know how everybody else feels but I say any time you can add to your toolbox makes you a more effective carpenter.

    I witness to my family. I witness lately a lot in doctors offices and leave tracts. I witness to many people I come in contact with in general.
