STEVE: No, most people don’t like it. I want to tell you why you don’t like it. Okay? Because you’re stuck on yourself. All right? That’s why you don’t like it. You’re stuck on yourself. You’re concerned how people going to think about ya. You’re concerned that you’re going to say the wrong thing. Listen up at home, this isn’t just for this crowd here. If you call yourself a believer you’re supposed to be the eyes, the ears, the mouthpiece of Christ. The feet, the hands. Okay? You’re not supposed to just, you know, give a cup of cold water. You’re supposed to talk about Jesus. Okay? You’re supposed to bring up the Lord. And so, um, I challenge everyone here.
Start talking. I mean any given day, 15, 20 people at least. You know, I always have, I always have a piece of literature to leave with them, something you know, to make sure it carries on because sometimes it’s, it’s got to be a pretty fast witness. But I was at Fed Ex talking to this guy and this is what I always say. I look them straight in the eyes, total stranger. Do this non-stop. Jeri, where you at, my wife? Do I do this stuff all the time? Yup! Drives my girls crazy sometimes because I mean I’ll embarrass them. I don’t care. I do not care! And there could be 25 customers in the place, it doesn’t matter. I look at the man behind the cash register and I’ll go, um, “Raymond?” And sometimes they’re shocked when you say that. It’s like how’d you know? Your badge says Raymond, man, Raymond, manager. Okay? I’ll say “Raymond, I want to ask you a question. And I’ve had to say stop what you’re doing, you know, I, whatever, because I want their attention.
So I say Raymond, I want to ask you a question. Do you know Jesus Christ as your personal savior? Never ask them do they go to church. Never ask them what they believe about this or believe about that. I ask them do they know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Then before they can open their mouth I say this: “Don’t lie to me!” Let me tell you something. The more you do this the easier it gets. And you’ve NEVER had more fun than this. Nothing. I don’t care. Best ride at Disneyworld. I don’t. The best donut at Krispy Kreme. It doesn’t. You’ve never had a Latte like this. Okay? This is fun!
