Chris.
In the local area where we live, whatever we may call it, we will be seen by our neighbours. The reason that God puts us there, for however long a period it is, is for us to be His Living Witnesses. The Power of Living Witness is huge and can open many doors for discreet and intelligent conversations. To simply blabber about 'Jesus' in our local area may cause us to be seen as fanatics or fools.
