Phone evangelism?

It is a very strange world we live in when a mobile phone ring tone makes it to be top of the pops — but that’s what’s happened with ‘the Crazy Frog’. However, there are lots of other things about phones that cause deep irritation.

You know the situation. You have just come in from work, or you are about to sit down for your evening meal and the phone goes. When you answer it, you find someone wanting to sell you a new kitchen or double glazing or advertising a life assurance or telling you that you have won a non-existent competition you never knew you had entered. It is very easy to just get irritated and simply put the phone down.

Hang on!

But hold on! Don’t hang up! I have found, with a little bit of patience, these niggling phone calls, can be turned into five star opportunities to talk to these people about the Lord Jesus Christ.
