Well, if it’s everything I’ve done, so I just sent the reader to Hell reenergized…

Also, I kinda agree with you, but there’s more than one way to look at this. Like, if you take this logic to it’s max, you’d grab every passing stranger who even walked past you on the sidewalk and made sure you told them the gospel. You don’t want to just wish them well and have them die and go to hell!

But, while some people are better at striking up on-the-spot conversations than others, I think this it’s pretty safe to say this is a short-term-tactic that will probably result in a lot of people avoiding you.

Like–Esther warmed the king up with two feasts before she got to the point about saving her people. I’m not God so I can’t say for sure, but sometimes the small, “unspiritural” things we do for people may lead to more opportunities to speak to listening ears than had we dove straight to the point.

Like–I don’t have influence over very many people at the moment, but with Covid-19 lots of people want a break. Say I wrote a hit novel that satisfied people’s desire for escape and adventure, something meaningful but not gospel-centric. I haven’t saved anyone’s soul, but now I have a much larger sphere of influence over people whom I’ve invested in and are interested in what I have to say. Maybe I do a facebook live on how the gospel gives me courage in the midst of covid-19 and 200 people watch it. Boom.

You see what I mean? Not everything that at first appears like hiding one’s lamp under a basket has to be so. It’s about just however God leads and us surrendering to His will.

Rant over. 😄
