Attractive evangelism

I recently spoke at the opening of a church in Birmingham where the pastor was a converted Hindu.

He, his brothers, a sister and his parents had been converted after the sudden death of his 22 year-old brother. He, also a Hindu, had been converted through a tract which had been given him when he was about to go to a Jehovah's Witness Kingdom Hall. Outside, somebody was distributing gospel tracts, and this young man had taken one, read it, gone to a Baptist church and been converted.

In Musselborough I interviewed a man in his 40s converted through reading tracts that had been sent in pre-paid envelopes to the Royal Mail in Edinburgh where he was working. He had had no other contact with the gospel.
