We are looking this evening at some witness works and some very helpful
information about how the whole enterprise of witnessing to others and telling others

share this good news with a world that desperately needs it.

things and here’s what they said, “We do not well, this is a day of good tidings and we
hold our peace.” It is not good to have good news that people need and not share that
good news with others. I wonder what kind of approach are you taking. What efforts a ...
