being salt & light

Today's "Daily Bread" is spot on for entertaining and using your home.
When E. Stanley Jones well known missionary to India, had a chance to meet Gandhi, he asked, "How can Christianity make a stronger impact on your country?" Gandhi replied that 3 things would be required:
1. Christians must begin to live more like Jesus.
2. The Christian faith should be presented without any adulteration.
3. Christians should emphasize LOVE, which is at the heart of the Gospel.
If we would use our homes to do these with those we know who are outside the faith, we would have a mighty impact on our communities and in turn our nation that would be more powerful than any book or sermon. This is how we too coudl make a stronger impact on our county!
Prop open your front door and invite someone in for a cup of something and lend a listening ear and serve up some love and understanding and let us know what happens.

Entertaining for Eternity

Entertaining for Eternity: "Saturday, August 8, 2009"

Labor Day

Plan a neighborhood Labor Day picnic in your yard. Have guests bring pot luck salad or dessert and you flip the burgers. Pray before you eat asking the Lord to bless our troops and our country and watch how that effects the conversations and let me know.

Book status

Entertaining for Eternity had it's debut at the CCC conf. in CO. The printer had air shipped only 60 copies due to weight and cost of shipping. I was shocked when it sold completely out by the next day! Reserve your copy by going to the web site www.EntertainingForEternity.com. The boat shipment is due to arrive mid August.

PATRIOTIC PICNICS

I use Memorial Day, Flag Day, Fourth of July or Labor Day to have a pre-evangelism picnic. Have a pot luck where friends bring salads or desserts and you provide the burgers & dogs. Just before everyone goes through the food line I have my husband say, "It's our custom in our home to say a blessing before we eat. Today I'd like to pause and pray not only for our food but also for our nation." Then he prays something appropriate to the holiday or recent news like for our troops in harms way etc. It's loads of fun to mingle and hear how the Lord takes this simple prayer and causes the guests to talk about spiritual things. Who knows what or where the Holy Spirit will take this.
