Shooting at Georgia High School

I seldom hand out tracts because many offer a confusing method rather than a simple gospel message.

I switched to cards, the same size as a business card, with a Bible verse. Here's a sample: Amazon.com

Whenever I hand one to a stranger I always get a smile and a thank you.

What do you say when you hand it to them?
Also do you just hand them to a bunch of people that go by, or do you hand them to someone who captures your attention every so often?
I just put tracts on the store shelves 😆
Chicken, I know 😆
My husband has written some tracts himself and we print them out. They look pretty cheesy but the message is what we would want said.
 
I don't hand out tracts because I'm in stores and other places, which are posted no passing out literature, etc. and it's both a legal and respect for private property thing that I don't. I don't want a trespassing, disorderly conduct, etc. summons, or to get banned from stores I patronize.

I don't hand out tracts because if caught with one, muslim women and girls could/would be beaten, imprisoned in their homes, killed, and/or kidnapped/shipped overseas and married off involuntarily, raped by their husbands, and forced to bear children. The muslim communities here are getting larger and stricter, the religious police are getting more aggressive, and there are more and more muslims throughout the Twin Cities Metro, not just concentrated in some areas.

Wearing a Christian T shirt andan exposed crucifix isn't a cop-out. It's the safest way for muslim women and girls to "hear" The Gospel that I can do.

Safety is an issue for people of some other cultures/faiths, as well.

I'm just a mobile billboard with The Gospel on it that will answer questions if asked. Casual conversations allow the person time to read and get The Gospel. Sometimes a door opens, sometimes a seed is planted, sometimes satan objects, and most of the time I have no idea, but The Gospel and The Holy Ghost never return void :big grin; :lol: I may not ever know what fruit happened when.

The muslim attire muslim women wear are giant billboards saying they're lost, headed for Hell, and need The Gospel and Jesus.
Ditto the hindu, bhuddist, animist, taoist, satanist, new ager, etc. attire and accouterments.


If I were in another area and setting, and if it were safe for the people I was trying to reach, tracts, yes.


If they do trick or treating at the apartment complex, I can't hand out tracts, but, everyone, who comes to my door, will see a large yard cross with the words, "He is Risen." I've gotten the unofficial OK to have a small acrylic holder with bookmarks with The Gospel on them at my door. I can't go knocking on doors, pester people at the pools, etc. But I can wear a Christian T shirt and crucifix :)

I absolutely love this. What a mission field you are in. You have inspired me more than once with your attitude. Instead of fear and hopelessness and anger at all of the Muslims entering your state, you view it as an opportunity. I pray that if and when it happens here in Florida that I can operate with your attitude.

🙁 And we all need to take heed with this. Never give a tract to a Muslim woman! Never be overt out in public in your evangelism to them.

Hey my old Pastor told me that his Pastor got saved reading a tract in a Port-a-Potty. I used to put tracts in restroom stalls. I usually pray before putting them out.

As I'm handing one out I say something like 'here's a thought to brighten your day'. I carry them in my purse & car so whenever the Holy Spirit nudges me I hand one out. If someone is really down and looks hungry I don't give them money, I'll hand them a $10 gift card for Arby's and a Bible verse card.
