CHOCOLATE EVANGELISM
Outreach in your Comfort Zone".
I love Chocolate. There's something about Chocolate that just reeks of comfort. Life doesn't quite seem so hard and scary with a mouth stuffed full of Chocolate. Chocolate Evangelism is not so hard or scary either.
Psalm 37: 4 tells us to 'Delight in the Lord' and He will give us the 'Desires of our Hearts'. I love Harley Davidson Motorcycles. I love Science Fiction and Fantasy. It's not by accident I minister to Bikers, Lord of the Rings fanatics and Star Trekkers.
I don't cold doorknock. I don't give out pamphlets at shopping centres. I don't invite friends to high sell church activities. That's scary and often comes with great effort and little or no results. It's out of my comfort zone, nothing like Chocolate at all.
I spend time with friends who want to see me and visa versa. We have a common love. Relationships develop. True friendships happen that are great pathways for Jesus to cross. That I can do. I'm in my comfort zone. I'm not scared. Now that's Chocolate.
I invite you to have some of this 'Chocolate' too.
Next we’ll be talking about that "First Slice" and the three basic ingredients of Plans, Vehicles and Tools.
