I thought of a way we could witness to the members of gaia. If we can get enough of us we could have something like a study group in one of the towns or just vow for one day to go to different parts of town and witness to people. Tell me what you think.

The problem with that is do you know how to back up what you say so that other's can't say that you are lying?

You can tickle me pink, orange, red, or blue, but not grey



You just ignore those people. When my dad does outreach, evangelism, whatever you want to call it, he doesn't get anyone saying "Lies!". He gets some "Shut up!", but no "Lies!". Anyway, you're not going to go out and do that just because you are afraid of someone saying that you're lying? Doesn't proverbs say that fear of man leads to destruction? Just ignore those people.



Because grey will not do.

I'm just wanting people to be prepared. I had a friend that tried to reach out to a stranger and she wasn't ready. She ended up crying. We must remember it's not about the number that are saved. It about being able to plant the seed and most of the time you don't know if you have planted it or not. That's why I was saying we need to prepare people before hand so then they know what to expect and how to deal with different situations.

I'll get together with the rest of the crew to discuss your idea. In the mean time you can start a thread to get people prepared for it. Such as scriptures that they can use, how to respond to negitive feedback, how to use facts to back up what they say, using the things a person says to their advantage, ect.

I'm up for it.
Yesterday, while in a crew in Zomg, i gave my crew a little lesson about God. They stopped taking His name in vain, but... I don't know if that will carry out longer than for when i was on there...

That shows they listened to you and you planted a seed. Which is great! I'm proud of you.

I'll be willing to join in with you guys too. We should all form a group or something. We need to be prepared for what to say though..

Agreed it is smarter to go in a group. So if one of us doesn't have the answer to the question.

Yeah exactly. Just start random discussions about God with people. Also if one us is cornered someone else can know what to say. At least were teaching about Christ, its up to them to take or leave it smile
