In what ways do you set an example that would draw people to listen to the teachings of the Christian faith?

(I was surprised to get no obviously Christian answers to a similar question. So this one is focused just for you.)

As a Christian , I try to represent the Christian Faith in having Respect for other Faiths. Do not downgrade other religions. I live everyday to obey the Commandments. When some poor person down on their luck seems like they can not get back up and continue on, I try hard to give them some moral support and let them know that it will get better. That they can do all things, through Christ who strengthens them. Ask God and Ye Shall Recieve. Even if they can recieve some Peace of Mind. Many people walk around very sad looking . Like they are on their last. I also remind them, that things could be worse. Like the woman who complained because she did not have fancy shoes, until she saw a man who had no feet. We need to be Thankful for what we have. Give Thanks unto the Lord. Help others. I try to help all who need help. It makes me happy and If I need to give my last dollar, I do it with happiness, especially if it is to someone who needs it more then I. I encourage many who are depressed to hold their Bible and pray to God to lift their burdens, and heal them. My reasons and ways continue on:

Well, hmm. Good question. I try not to judge others (but sometimes I accidentally do). I turn the other cheek. I'm actually good at that one. I'm forgiving of everything to everyone. Seriously. But there are so many things that I'm working on and allowing God to change in me. It's a long process! I wish I could just immediately become the person I want to be, but for some weird reason, it isn't that easy.

1) Think before you speak to avoid hurting people's feelings if posssible.
2) Give what you can to those who need it. Even if it is nothing more than giving a smile to the person who looks depressed.
3)Hold tightly to your faith but understand that not everyone will share your enthusiasm about religion so let them ask the questions if they want and you give the clearest and most concise answers you can.
4)be friendly to all people, even the atheist is a human and dhould be treated with respect just as you would have respect given to you.
5)treat your children with kindness but be firm in their discipline so they do not become little monsters to everyone else aside from you. Teach them manners early.
6)Respect yourself enough to dress in a manner that is befitting a christian.
7) If someone else is hateful to you, perhaps they really just need more love from you...give it to them. Be kind to all because you do not know what their circumstances are.
8)reserve judgment for God....Let him do the job that is rightfully his. You can acknowledge something is a sin but refrain from smacking the sinner in the head with it.
9)Understand that not everyone has extra money to give to the homeless but everyone has a talent to share with others, give of yourself selflessly.
10) Love others without reserve and acknowledge everyone for the gifts they have to bring to society as a whole.

First, no matter what I try not to judge people when I don't agree with them ore the way they live. It's really hard to do, but I try to remember it's not my job to judge. Second I try to love people no matter what. In everyday life I try not to get frustrated on the road or at a restaurant or in the grocery store. I try to remember that other people could be just having a bad day and ther's no reason for me to take it personal. If I stay nice it might just be the bright spot in their day. Third, I try to help people to the best of my abilities. The phrase WWJD is not just a cliche' it's true and if you think of that often in your day as well as just wanting to please God in appreciation for what He did for us, it helps make things a lot easier. God bless.
