 We believe small things done big will change the world...showing God's love through practical acts of kindness.  The Bible actually says in 1 Peter 2: "People who do not believe are living all around you and might say that you are doing wrong. Live such good lives that they will see the good things you do and will give glory to God on the day when Christ comes again." It is through love, through serving, and through living upright lives that bridge the gap between us and our surrounding community. This simple concept is called "Servant Evangelism." SE allows us to win the heart so that we can build trust and relationship with those around us.

Once you win the heart and trust begins to build you can now confront the conscience. One phrase we use often is: "Circumnavigate the intellect, the place of argument, and aim for the conscience, the place of the knowledge of 'right and wrong.'" The best
way to do this is by using the Law of God, the 10 Commandments.  Why not use a tool that God has already placed on the heart of every man and woman? Romans 2 says: " When outsiders who have never heard of God's law follow it more or less by instinct, they confirm its truth by their obedience. They show that God's law is not something alien, imposed on us from without, but woven into the very fabric of our creation."  Why not use the conscience and the Law to share the reason Christ is necessary for life and salvation? It only makes sense to us. To learn more on how to do this please take the time to visit, what we believe to be the most important website on evangelism and witnessing today:

While you're there, be sure to listen to the most important message you will ever hear: "Hell's Best Kept Secret." Acts of Kindness are important and necessary, but
if you don't know what message to share when the opportunity is given, it could be an opportunity lost...

We have found that combining these two concepts is a perfect combination. Do we believe it's the only way to share you're faith? No, but love, service, and truth are key ingredients to sharing the gospel like Jesus did. The most important key to remember is this: "Be led by the Holy Spirit, He is moving, move with Him!"
