make the most of every opportunity

Last night was Unite, the main weekly meeting of Southampton CU. We had a speaker called Roger Carswell and he is an absolute legend. his talk was so real and down to earth and amazingly applicable. he was basically talking about how we can share the gospel. his stories were really inspiring, and hilarious. he clearly shares the gospel at any opportunity. from people at a petrol station to passing cars in a traffic jam, from phone call advertisers to pre-paid envelopes - he literally sends them a leaflet explaining the gospel.

i think the main thing i went away with is the evangelism is an amazing privilege, it can be fun, and it really isn’t that hard. he also began by saying that many years ago he started praying for the opportunity to speak about Christ to someone every day because he was inspired by DL Moody. challenging!
