However, one of the greatest areas of need was in our strategy to win the lost. We were not doing a good job of sharing the gospel with people in our community. It was happening from time to time but not involving the force of the NBCC membership. We also saw a great need for a purposeful relationship building process. So, we needed new efforts to connect with each other and lost people if we were ever going to do a good job reaching people for Christ.
Some teams do evangelistic work, some do ministry, and others pray.
We are commanded to go, but we can't go unless some are covering us with prayers for wisdom, protection and open hearts. On the second night of visits, two teams were assigned to evangelistic visits and one to ministry visits. John Peeler, Ed Williams and I are team leaders. That night, one visit led us to a house where there were three men and a baby sitting on a porch. We approached the men, and they openly received us.
