Wednesday, June 01, 2005 chit chat with people or real stuff?Gary, I think it depends on the people, rather than the church. You meet people in all walks of life where the conversation doesn't go much further than what you mentioned in your post.As far as some good spiritual talk goes, I think a lot of people have it inside them, but find it difficult to bring it out into the open.... wear their hearts on their sleeves, so to speak. That is probably their personality. I was recently talking very openly (and passionately) to one of our ministers about how much I love the Lord, and he was quite uncomfortable with the conversation. Probably thought I was "over the top". To tell you the truth, most people think I am over the top as far as all topics pertaining to our relationship with the Lord goes!!!!! When I find someone who loves to talk of these things, I am "home"!!!! Unfortunately chit chat has become a little boring to me now...... but I know we must be kind of masters in that art, if we want to be able to reach out to people for a more glorious reason! I find if I speak passionately about my great depth of love for the Lord, it either turns people off (they start yawning!) or on the odd occasion, it makes them curious. They want that too. Yes, all this is an interesting topic of which we could discuss from many angles. I am sure a cab driver would become master in the art of working out different personalities!!!
