Last week I posed the challenge to witness to one person for every blog post.  I happen to know that at least 10 Christian bloggers visited my site, and chose not to respond to that challenge, choosing instead to mindlessly prattle on with their unprofitable theologies and divisive doctrinal debates.

I am always appreciative of a linkback! I think we can all learn something from that video. Witnessing doesn’t just have to be the traditional thing we think of. Some plant, some water, God gives the increase. We can be profitable for God just be sharing a simple truth or question with them.
