What is the Hardest Thing About Evangelism
November 21, 2013Do You Take Advantage of Opportunity?
November 19, 2013While shopping a lady needed a shopping cart but did not have a quarter. (Aldis requires a quarter to use their carts)
When Carolyn was returning her cart to get back her coin, she noticed the lady.
“Do you need a cart and cannot find a quarter?”, she asked the woman.
“Yes” the lady answered.
“Take mine,” Carolyn said, “but in exchange will you read this tract?”
The lady took the cart and the tract and happily went into the store.
This was an unusual opportunity to give a gospel tract. SOS staff are always looking for opportunities to witness. Sometimes it is actually a conversation that leads to conversion and other times it is giving a tract and praying that the Word will dwell in the hearts of the recipients.
Are you looking for opportunities to witness?
Do Something
November 16, 2013“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing.”
Great quote for the world we live in today. When contemplating what to put on the blog, this quote came to mind, but who first said it?
This is a good research project for you today. It is not scripture but a true saying for Christians.
Are you sitting back doing nothing? Content to sit in church and listen, but not going out and witnessing to your friends and neighbors. The conclusion, do something. Join SOS Events and learn how to be a witness for Christ.
Salvation at Chic-fil-A
November 14, 2013Tom and Carolyn stopped for a meal at Chick-fil-A.
While returning the trays, Tom noticed a young couple that were having a heated discussion.
He gave them a Bible track and then sat down and asked them if they knew the “three things God cannot do.”
Tom asked the question, “Are you 50, 75 or one hundred percent sure if you died today you go to heaven?”
The girl, Megan, said, “I’m hundred percent sure.”
But Brian said, “I’m not even 50% sure.”
Tom then ask him if he would like to be 100% sure.
He said, “Yes,” and the four of them held hands and Brian prayed out loud the prayer to receive Christ as his Savior.
Megan was so happy after that and when Tom and Carolyn left the restaurant the couple were holding hands and smiling at one another.
Their heated discussion was about the matter of his salvation, so this was an appointed time by God.
God puts Christians at the right place, at the right time, IF we are looking for opportunities to witness.

Do You Study God’s Word
November 2, 2013“When you fail to study God’s Word, you stop growing. When you cease to grow spiritually, you start deteriorating immediately. When you stop climbing, you start slipping. You can never arrive spiritually in this life; there is always a higher plateau to be reached. One of those plateaus is personal evangelism. Jesus said, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Soul winners are made, not born.”
SOS can help you to become a spiritual fisherman, because God has helped us to write “Easy Evangelism.”
Prayer Requests
October 19, 2013SOS staff has a very busy schedule the next 2 weeks as many Fall Festivals are scheduled. Not only are the regular events still in progress but the extra events gives much opportunity for more souls to be saved. We are asking for extra prayer from our fellow Christians at this time.
Souls to be saved.
Enough workers to work at the various events.
Strength and good health for SOS workers.
Thank you for your prayers and thank The Lord for the answers.
Wrong Number?
October 17, 2013Late one night the telephone rang. Tom missed the call so dialed the number back.
A woman answered and said, “Sorry wrong number.”
Tom quickly asked her if she knew the 3 Things God Can Not Do.
She did not, so Tom explained them to her and proceeded to go through the short presentation of the gospel.
She prayed to receive Jesus into her heart, and is now going to start Bible studies.
Wrong number? There are no wrong numbers with God.
Answer to the riddle
September 26, 2013The answer to yesterday’s riddle:
What is bigger than God? Nothing
What is worse than the devil? Nothing
What do the dead eat? Nothing
And if we eat nothing we die.
The answer is Nothing.
Hope you enjoyed the riddle.
This is one of the ways SOS uses to get people to come and talk to us when we are at an event. People are curious and will come to ask the answer. Then we have the opportunity to share the gospel with them and many will ask Jesus into their heart.
Two Salvations
September 21, 2013SOS Events is blessed to have many people donate items to the ministry. Every gift is appreciated. Sometimes there are things we cannot use or those things get replaced by newer items.
Then our storage shed gets cluttered and overcrowded.
Not to far from our property is a Hispanic family who sell used items. Tom stopped to see them and offered all of our accumulated items to them if they would come and get them.
A few minutes later a truck pulled into the yard and 2 men got out. They had come to get the things we were giving to them.
Along with some printers, phones, monitors and other items was a vinyl cutting machine. Carlos asked, “What does that machine do?”
On a shelf were some signs that had been made using the machine and I took one down to show him.
He was amazed. “It’s Spanish,” he said.
While he and his cousin loaded the rest of the items, I quickly went into the office to get 2 Spanish tracts to give to the men.
When they were given the tracts, both started to read them. Tom and I explained the 3 Things God Can Not Do, and both Carlos and Antonio prayed and ask Jesus into their hearts.
We then got their full names, addresses and they will be sent Bible studies in Spanish so they can grow in The Lord.
We try to witness every opportunity that God gives us and God gives the increase. It’s a joy to be a witness.
