everyone needs to have an opening question
a friend of mine within several minutes of conversation will ask a stranger where they go to church
for me, my question is Do you have a Bible? If they say no, I offer them one and advise they begin at the gospel of John. If they say yes, I ask if it is their personal Bible. I recommend that they have their own.
if they don’t want a Bible I move to plan B.
i show them 3 books and tell them a little bit about each one and let them choose. COL the parables of Jesus explained. MH if you are interested in health and healing. SC if you are just a beginner.
they will usually take something.
some have taken everything!!
then I pray.
