“Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” by Jonathan Edwards, is considered the most famous sermon ever preached in American history. Jonathan Edwards delivered this message on July 8, 1741 in Enfield, Connecticut. Many who heard it trembled and cried out for mercy. Others fainted. Five hundred people were converted that day.

(If you are regularly sharing your faith, sooner or later you will be hassled by people with badges, especially if you are an open air preacher. I found a great 12-point list of what to do—and what not to do—when confronted by the police. Copy this and memorize the protocols… before it’s too late!)

1. Always [...]

We are dedicating this week to all the fools who suppress the knowledge of the obvious! Below, let’s take another look at the Pope of Atheism, Richard Dawkins, and what he thinks about God.

Anna “Banana” Jackson created a cool T-shirt inspired from some articles from this blog. (Read what the T-shirt says by clicking here.)

 Here’s what she wrote: “This shirt was inspired from a great series of articles on EVTales.com called “You might be a fundamentalist atheist if…” Some of them just made me laugh out loud, and I thought [...]

Here are four questions from a radio sermon by Dr. Charles Stanley concerning whether everyone should preach the Gospel. Ask yourself:

What can you do?

What should you do?

What is God telling you to do?

What am I willing to do?

We had great success over the weekend handing out Giant Money Gospel tracts at the Third St. Promenade and at The Academy Awards (stories forthcoming). In this video, Ray Comfort demonstrates the ease in which these simple tracts can be handed out, with the possibility of each person reading the info, believing it, then being saved! [...]

That’s Happy New Year in Vietamese! Today is the start of year 4706 for the Chinese and Vietnamese: The Year of the Rat!!!
In Little Saigon last Friday, we were mobbed—mobbed—as we handed out Million-Dollar Bill Gospel tracts and $100 Giant Money tracts a week before the start of the celebrations.

Right at the get go, this man gave [...]

This is a cool tip from fellow evangelist, Warren C.:
Since the Chinese New Year starts today, here’s a tip on how to pass out the Million-dollar bill Gospel tract to Chinese or Vietnamese people. Asians are some of the toughest people to pass out tracts to, so this is what I did:
I passed out [...]

There are a number of  people who read this blog who don’t have the wonderful blessings of living in a place with nearly year-round sunshine like California, so the opportunities for effective evangelism are severely limited.
 One man from the far north complains incessantly about the snow he has to shovel daily; another whines about how cold [...]

You may remember that ’70’s T.V. show “Good Times”; I watched it a lot in “the day.”

Well, in addition to handing out a Gospel tract to Stevie Wonder at the Martin Luther King Jr. Parade, I had the opportunity to hand out a few Million Dollar Bill Gospel tracts to John Amos, the Dad in [...]

When Jesus said to “Go!” in Mark 16:15 I’m pretty sure He didn’t mean this:

I wanted to preach at the Rose Parade Porta-Potties last year when I saw the crowd waiting nervously in line, but I wasn’t prepared. This time, at the 2008 Tournament of Roses, “Righteous Richard” Chavarria brought along his portable preaching stool at [...]

This is the latest adaptation of the “Will your good outweigh your bad?” tract that we are presenting to our congregation. (To see the originals, what the inside of the tract says, and how we adapted them for various events, and how to download your own click here.)

We made 15,000 and have the whole month [...]

This is a new tradition: Repeating this post at Christmas time.
Sufferin’ for the Savior with Santa in SoCal ain’t easy, but someone has to do it! I gave ole St. Nick a tip that he will never forget (I think he works for minimum wage and never gets Christmas off, poor guy). I just hope that [...]

The “Will your good outweigh your bad?“ tract is the greatest free tract download ever and they are available from Living Waters Publications!
Click here to get them. (This link will download a zipped copy of both sides. Just save it onto your computer, unzip, and you’ll end up with the pdf version.) 
People love them! [...]

I saw this disgustingly funny and effective tract from a website called “The Reformed Evangelist” and I want to share it with you.

Here is a description of the tract from their site:
“My wife once saw a calendar of events called The Bathroom Reader hanging on the wall in a college restroom. That simple idea sparked [...]

The high school kid in line at Rite Aide drugstore didn’t want the giant hundred dollar bill after he found out that it was a “religious” tract, so he tried to hand it back to me. “Sorry,” I said. “I can’t take it back.” He insisted. I refused.
Looking around, he tried offering it to a neighbor of mine [...]

When it comes to proclaiming the truth that all have sinned by breaking God’s moral law by lying, stealing, misusing His name, looking with lust (which Jesus calls adultery), or hating (which the bible calls murder), and that the penalty is Hell, expect the firefight to begin. To mention that God is a God of [...]

Over the last several weeks I’ve featured lame, ridiculous Jesus-wear (Weak, Wimpy—and Wrong—Witness) that unintentionally mocks the cause and urgency of Biblical evangelism. But now I want to feature some clothing that will actually start a conversation: “The Smell of Death” T shirt. Dale and Anna Jackson are part of the creative team at Way [...]

Just because someone says they are a Christian does not mean that they are a Christian; talk is cheap. Not many Christians know why they are Christians even if they are Christians. This poor guy didn’t really know what he believes, so I explained to him what he should believe. Then he sang a [...]

I don’t cry.
I’m a man. Men don’t cry. One exception. Okay four. I cried—and cheered—four times. I’ve seen this movie four times. Rent it. Buy it. Lend it to an unsaved friend… I lent it to my Dad who is not a Christian; my wife thought he would turn it off half way [...]

What should you do when you hand someone a Gospel tract, they read it, then hurriedly hand it back in disgust? Ray Comfort suggests that you go armless.
Stick your hands in your pockets; twirl around like a whirling dervish; duck out; walk away. There is no obligation on your part to take back what [...]

I hate those credit card applications that come in the mail. I get lots of them— three, five, six or more in a week! What can a consumer who wants to stay debt free do? I’ve called the “Do Not Mail” list to no avail—Visa and Mastercard and American Express just keep on sending more.
But [...]

GET EVEN WITH TAILGATERS AND BACKSLIDERS!
This sure beats a fish on the bumper or the “Jesus Loves You” sticker on the trunk lid, or the “God is my co-pilot” sign on the dashboard, or the “In case of rapture, this car will be empty” license plate holder, etc.

(Thanks to Anna “Banana” Jackson for this creative [...]

Last week I explained the importance of posting evangelistic videos to YouTube, but there’s another unique opportunity: GodTube.
Why? It’s a great way to show the non-evangelizing Christian how to witness, it convicts the backsliders, fakers, and religious hypocrites; and these videos encourage those who are faithful to Jesus’ command to “Go!”
I was surprised to [...]

The motto of every evangelism class that I teach is:
“Go and make _______!!!”
Fill in the last word. Disciples, right?
Wrong.
Go and make mistakes!
Jesus said to “Go!” but He didn’t tell us how, per se; so we need to be bold, adventurous, risk-takers.
Go ahead, make that foolish error that offends someone.
Tell someone too harshly that they [...]

Two weeks ago I featured a story about how Anna (Banana) Jackson witnesses inside a local Starbucks with management’s permission. I provided a link for a “Coffee Trivia” tract but there was a problem: the tract said “Coffee TriVA“.
If you’d like to download the new and improved “Coffee TriVIA” tract with the correct spelling, [...]

This book will scare the Hell out of you and cause you to long for Heaven more. At only 93 pages, it describes the reality of both eternal states in a concise, intelligent, easy-to-understand manner.
According to Dr. R.C. Sproul, no other theologian in American history has explored the nature of Heaven and Hell more [...]

Todd Friel is the co-host of The Way of the Master radio.
The music weeps, the preacher pleads, “Give your heart to Jesus. You have a God shaped hole in your heart and only Jesus can fill it.” Dozens, hundreds or thousands of people who want to get their spiritual life on track make their way [...]

The evangelism team went to a combined church outreach on Saturday at the Huntington Beach Pier. Many churches combined to “outreach” to all the unsaved who so willingly and enthusiastically attended Christian programs, listened to Christian bands playing Christian music, and took lots of Jesus stuff.
Yeah, right. When you were a pagan, how many [...]

Even though there is a wealth of evidence from Scripture, history, and the great teachers of the past (including Jesus, Paul, Peter and the gang), in regard to the efficacy of using the 10 Commandments in a Gospel presentation, you will still face the greatest opposition when sharing your faith in this way from… Christians!
Yes, [...]
