Tips for the Timid - You Can Do It!!!

I know folks who really, really believe that they could never crank up a conversation with a total stranger (I don't believe that, by the way!). Well, for those whose palms sweat bullets at the thought of verbally sharing their faith, is there anything they can do? Absolutely!

My daughters and I spent a day at Dollywood in Tennessee recently, and I had with me a pocket full of collectible Ten Commandments coins (Ten Commandments Coins), and my digital camera.

I set the camera in "Museum" mode, and went about sitting on benches and "planting" a coin in plain view just out of my own reach and waiting for someone to sit next to me that would actually pick up the coin. It's always amazing to me how many folks will look at it but not touch it! Even more will look it over, pick it up briefly, and put it right back down like it's a hot rock. Hmmm.

I did have some takers, though. As you can see from the photos below, these two men not only picked up the coin, they studied it. They looked it over and over for more than a couple of minutes each:

With the camera set at "Museum," there's no flash and no clicking sound, so I was able to snap these shots without anyone knowing. Obviously, I do not know either of these men, or their eternal destiny. Please pray for their salvation, or if they are saved already that they would pass the coin along to a lost person.

If you are one who describes yourself as too timid to witness, doesn't this look easy? It's even fun because it's kind of sneaky.

Get out of your comfort zone a little bit at a time, get creative, and get the Word out!
