Pastor Greg Laurie tells the story about a barber who went to attend a meeting one night where the speaker was stressing the need to share Christ with others. The barber was determined after that meeting that he would share Jesus with the first person he met that next morning in his chair. As Laurie tells this in “How to Share Your Faith”

“The next morning, after the customer had been seated and the apron was tucked around his neck, the barber began to strop his razor vigorously. Testing the edge, he turned to the man in the chair and blurted out, “Friend, are you ready to die and meet God?”

The man looked at the razor and fled out the door-apron and all! The barber had the right idea. He just needed to use a little tact.” pg.36.
