Some people think that soul-winning is just something the church group does on Saturday mornings. It's true....that is soul-winning, but it goes beyond that. God calls us to reach others with the Gospel. (Mark 16:15 "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.") Notice how the verse says "all the world" People also tend to think that reaching souls for Christ/soul-winning means being a missionary in a foreign field. But wait...it says ALL. That means right where you're at too. This means your neighbors, relatives, coworkers, people at the grocery store, the grumpy business man you pass on the street. They all need Christ too. We have the Good News, the Blessed Hope, the answer to all life's problems: Christ. Why can't we share it with others?
D.L. Moody once made a commitment to never go to bed until he witnessed to at least one person. He was said to have gone out at night SEARCHING for someone to witness to. What if we were that fervent? What if we took soul-winning to that level?
