I didn't want to do anything but listen to the tapes because I felt the Lord's presence through them. The Lord was drawing me and I wanted to know how to become a Christian. Just two days later I met with Marylyn and her pastor and made Jesus my Lord and Savior. Now I am using tapes to reach others for Christ. Studies reveal that the vast majority of the people who have repented and have become true Christians did so because a friend reached out to them.
Impersonal outreach does little to promote the gospel.
Unfortunately, most Christians in the U.S. are not effective in proclaiming the gospel to those with whom they normally interact on a regular basis. Christians can pass out tapes to the people they know and let the preacher do the preaching. The gift of a tape combines a compassionate personal contact with a clear presentation of the Gospel. Tapes Changed my life Three years ago, street evangelist Bryan Showvaker from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania was living for himself. During that time he thought that he was a Christian.
