Spiritual Conversations

December 13th, 2007 by hoseab

Dr. Lon Allison, director of the Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College, uses what he calls the 1-10 guide to witnessing:

1 - Lord, let me have at least one spiritual conversation this week

10 - (From John Maxwell) If I am in conversation with someone for at least ten minutes, I believe God intends me to raise spiritual issues.

I like that! It keeps me from thinking I have to move every conversation, regardless of how brief, to a spiritual discussion, but it also challenges me to be ready as conversations become more than casual.

A Word From Hosea

I love serving as the senior pastor of Ridgecrest Baptist Church! I focus much of my time and energy on seeking God as I am preparing messages which are biblically based and profitable for the hearers. I serve as an Elder, and serve with our excellent deacons in the care of God's people. Debbie and I sing with our family and friends, presenting an annual Bilyeu Family Concert in August each year.
