Over the years I have heard the proliferation of good reasons why people should use tracts as part of their witnessing toolbox. A lot of people that I respect use them as their first preemptive strike. nonetheless, I have always hated them.  I found them cheap and cheesy. (Not just gospel tracts, any tracts or adverts.) For the most part, deep down, I guess I sort of thought people who threw out tracts were just trying to make themselves feel better,  whilst avoiding embarrassing themselves by engaging in the harder conversations.

Dave M. has a wonderful (free) question that he sometimes uses to break the ice when witnessing. If someone says to him “Look I don’t know about this God stuff. I think that I’ll just live my life and have some fun. I’ll get right with God at the end before I die and go to heaven.”

Dave can ask them two questions to get them thinking about God right now. (You can use these questions with or without the Living Waters “Million Dollar/Pound Note” tract)
