Evangelize at Every Opportunity

If you have 50 bottles to be filled with water, you don't take a bucket and dump it out hoping to fill them all. No, you grab the first bottle by the neck, and then you pour in water until it is filled. Then you go on to the next bottle. ... So many churches think of evangelism as a two- or three-week program, which requires bringing in someone with a big name who draws crowds. I always ask, "Are you training each member of your church to be a witness whenever the opportunity arises?"
