Somebody Needs A Handout!
|
“Here, read this,” was the words Harold heard as he reluctantly received the tract that was being offered to him. Harold did not know why, but he put into his wallet the little leaflet labeled, “Four Things God Wants You to Know.” Months later while sorting through his wallet and discarding unwanted items, he found that Gospel tract. He read through it again and again. He became thoroughly convicted of His need for Jesus the only Savior. He recognized himself as helplessly sinful and guilty before the holy God of heaven. The next day while standing with the Sunday morning church crowd singing the last verse of the invitational hymn, Harold was seized with the desperate thought, “I must receive Christ as my Savior – NOW!” He shamelessly rushed to the front of the auditorium to share his need with the caring Pastor. After the service, Harold greeted well-wishers with a beaming smile and a clean and happy heart.
I have lost track of my friend through the years but I have never forgotten the impact of that little tract that someone shared with a total stranger.
Here at BBN we are in the middle of a campaign to distribute 8 million Gospel invitations. We call them ITL (Invite to Listen) cards. They look like a business card. On one side is an invitation to listen to BBN radio and on the other side is life’s most important question: “If I die tonight my soul will be in H____________ tomorrow morning?” Then there are Scriptures to explain who goes to heaven and who goes to hell. There is also a phone number and a web sight where they can contact us to talk about their spiritual needs.
We would like for you to contact us to request a packet of these cards (10 per pack) to share with people who cross your paths. You can contact us by going to our Web page: bbnbi.org (look on the right side of the page for “Request ITL Cards”). You can request up to 10 packs at one time. These are also helpful in sharing with friends so they will know where to find BBNBI. We appreciate you as a partner in reaching our world for Christ. Somewhere, God has a person waiting to receive a hand out from you.
