SOMETHING FOR YOUR HEART
"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks
you to give the reason for the hope that you have"
(1 Peter 3:15).
Stuck in an Elevator
Talk about a captive audience! When Jenny signed up for
evangelism training last December, she didn't know she'd
get such immediate practical experience. Her unexpected
opportunity came when she was trapped in an elevator in
the hotel where the conference was being held.
She was confined in the small space with ten other people
(including Ashley and Jessica from her youth group and one
of their sponsors). Jenny, who was standing next to an airline
pilot from South Africa, began to talk with him about her
faith in God.
When he had a question, Ashley and Jessica showed him
Bible verses. Before the doors of the elevator opened 90
minutes later, the man had prayed to accept Jesus as his
Savior.
The young women didn't see him again, but left a Bible and
a note for him at the front desk of the hotel. When Jenny got
home from the conference, she found an e-mail from the
pilot. He wrote that the young women who had chosen to
share with him would never know how much he needed to
receive Jesus.
Opportunities to share our faith are not always planned out.
In fact, most times they are not. They're unexpected,
orchestrated by God. The person you sit next to in class.
An old friend who sends you an e-mail. A relative you see
once a year at a family reunion. Or even a stranger on an
airplane, in a store ... or stuck in an elevator.
God uses Scripture to change people's lives. Romans 10:17
tells us that "faith comes from hearing the message." Your
responsibility is to share what the Bible says, then stand
back. Let the Holy Spirit do the convincing and convicting.
Here are some questions to ask yourself:
. Have I ever found myself in an unplanned situation in which
I was able to speak to someone about my faith? Do I think
that was just a coincidence?
. If I were in such a situation, would I be ready to share
what Christ has done for me? (1 Peter 3:15) How can I
prepare myself?
. Have I ever prayed that God would bring across my path
someone who needs him? Am I willing to offer that prayer?

Christian stories are all, deep down, quite sad. The only heartwarming, inspiring, uplifting, and sometimes funny Christian stories are the ones where some Christian finally realizes that gods don't exist.

Send me your email address. Being an unbeliever you have no idea how many "heartwarming, inspiring, uplifting, funny Christian stories" people feel compelled to send to me. I would be happy to forward them all to you.

Christianity and uplifting stories are mutually exclusive.

Sorry to be so negative, but I know one place you can't find them, in the Bible.... Just murder rape, war and other mayhem.
