Evangelism Coach International

• “Where town are you from?”
• “Where do you work now?”
• “Are you happy with your job?”
• “Are you happy with life?”
• “Can I tell how about how to have abundant life?”

I dutifully jotted answers as if i was collecting data and was always glad to share the gospel at the end. I felt like I was witnessing. I had some memorable stories of such encounters, and deep conversations that i had.

Once, I even called up a co-worker and said “I’m doing a class project. Can we meet in the cafeteria for coffee and allow me to ask you some questions?” It’s true that I was doing a class project (for Evangelism 101), but the survey was bogus.

In reality, it was a bogus survey. I wasn’t collecting data, it was simply a ploy to break the ice. I was witnessing to the TRUTH of the gospel through a FALSE pretense.

I don’t use surveys anymore, because there is no honesty to them in doing evangelism.

If you have an honest survey, I’d like to see it. If you think it to be acceptable form, I encourage your comments here.

Let me ask you this:

What do you think about “survey” as an evangelism tool?
