Gas Pump Evangelisim

Yesterdays schedule at work was jumbled. There was some unplanned stops that had to be made. My partner ran out of gas the day before in the truck, and we needed to pick up a wire locate in Orlando. Our Wednesday route wasn't the norm. At the gas pump I noticed a gentlemen, Cory, approach my partner Grant and hand him something them walk away. The headline of the pamphlet read The Watch Tower. I commented out loud,"That's it?" and started watching this family proceed to hand pamphlets to every vehicle pulling in. I approached the man to chat with him and you could see the excitement on his face building. I asked him,"That's all? Your just going to hand out a pamphlet then move on without talking about Jesus?" Wow, he got his New World Translation Bible out from under all those pamphlets real quick. his anxiety really started to set in now, my arm would have been raising up.

He immediately began this instructed "Romans Road" like walk through his bible. Cory first went to the great commission to explain why he was there. The question I asked, stopping him short, was why he didn't think Jesus was God in the flesh. His only explanation was Jesus is the son of God nothing more. Cory then allowed me to walk him through the certain Scriptures in John 1 that tells us Jesus was God in the flesh. He was faced with a decision, is Jesus the son of God and what is the consequence for not believing that he is? The Holy Spirit was all over Cory, it was freaking awesome! I could only imagine a family I had the opportunity to share the Word with at a gas station could eventually say yes to faith in Christ. The rest of my day was a blur.
