Before I came to the River soul winning was something that I felt was not possible for me to do. My idea of speaking to people about Jesus was going around my neighborhood sticking tracks in people’s doors. Sometimes the opportunity would even present itself for me to witness but I just thought people didn’t want to hear about God and how He loves them. When I did build up the courage however to talk to someone it was only to invite them out to the next big church event. Come to think of it that’s the only reason we went out to the community. To advertise.
When I first heard the term “soul-winning” I was nervous to say the least. But after learning about The Great Commission and what God expects from us as believers and followers of Him, and listening to the testimonies of people who had been soul-winning it sounded more and more like something I would want to do. But I was still so nervous. What do I say? Then the soul winning script was introduced to me. Wow. What a wonderful piece of literature that is. The first time I went out to the streets it was so eye opening, as I read the script to these strangers something was happening in them.
People that seemed so unapproachable began to open up and listen. I realized that people need to hear about God, and they want to. They’re looking for something. Needless to say soul winning has impacted me in such a life altering way. I finally feel like my Christianity has a purpose. I have an assignment from my Father, my King, my Commander in Chief, and my Lord. And as I’m soul-winning I find myself being refreshed. God gives me the strength and the boldness to continually push for more souls. There is nothing like seeing the love of God in the eyes of the people I pray with. Where once there was darkness the light of God now shines in their life. I have realized it’s all about people.
