Good Advice

I was talking to Lance last night about my business, and he gave me some great advice that he is using while making plans for the Courthouse Cafe. He said that their aim is to target the people in the building who are looking for a place to eat close by and cater to them as customers. Not to try to figure out a way to bring people into the cafe who are not interested in finding a place to eat nearby. Those people will come in based on their need or influence of others (or both).
The same is true in sharing our faith. Those who are seeking Christ are the ones we need to open our arms to "cater to". And for those who are not, seeing Jesus in us is the best way to encourage them to seek (noticing their need and/or through the influence of others-us).
