I wonder if the First Church went door knocking? Did they pass out mini scrolls with church info in it?

Definitely, our lives are the testimony (or not); but there is something to be said for creating opportunities for evangelism by reaching out to the community, and not isolating yourself from the world.

People don't normally care what strangers have to say; but if you befriend them, they might listen.

You want to reach people? Put food on the table of the hungry; give blankets to the homeless; volunteer in the cancer ward; take your neighbors a pie; spend a day repairing the home of an elderly or disabled person; go to a nursing home and read or sing to the patients....that's what I call evangelism.

I'm finding that out and I appreciate what you said. Colossians 4:3-6 is a great reference for what you described.
