Waverly Church of Christ

“And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also” (2 Timothy 2:2).  The young salesman was disappointed about losing a big sale, and as he talked with his sales manager he lamented, “I guess it just proves you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.” The manager replied, “Son, take my advice: your job is not to make him drink. Your job is to make him thirsty.”  So it is with evangelism. Our lives should be so filled with Christ that they create a thirst for the Gospel—meaning the good news about Jesus Christ. The Christian’s duty is to make those encountered thirsty for the gospel. From where does the motivation for evangelization come?
