Gospel tracts are simple and effective
way to share the Gospel. I heard one
statistic which found that 60% of the
people who get saved do so by reading a
tract or book. I’ve also heard that a
tract handed to one person eventually
reaches 7 different people
A final note before we get into the top
ten list – we believe that it is best to
operate within local ordinances and laws
when sharing the Gospel. If you can’t pass
out tracts in a certain area because of
regulations then find an area close where
it is allowed. And as an
example - in Volusia County, Florida
built into the city code is an ordinance
allowing the distribution of christian
material such as tracts
Now, here are the top ten ways to
share Gospel Tracts.
10. Pass them out to people in Parks and
walking down busy streets.
9. Hand them out to people going into a
Concert (Rock, Country, etc.).
8. Many communities have festivals or
fairs; State fairs, County Fairs, Local
Festivals, or Flea Markets and these can
be great places to share Gospel tracts
with people.
7. Parades. People waiting for a parade to
start are often bored. You can walk down
the street and pass out tracts before the
parade and they will be more likely to
read them because they have nothing else
to do. If the parade is going on they
still may read it during a lull of the
action or they may pocket it and read it
at home later.
6. You can leave them in magazines that
are being sold in grocery or department
stores.
5. Leave them in the waiting area of your
mechanic or oil change center along with
the magazines as your vehicle is being
worked on. That way as someone’s car is
getting fixed their spirit and eternal
destination can be fixed as well.
4. As people are entering a sporting event
you can pass out tracts that have
testimonies of players from that sport.
For example, at a baseball game pass
out a tract about Mickey Mantle, at a
football game you could pass out tracts
about Reggie White or Deon Sanders. Since
the tract is about a player from the sport
they are attending people will be glad to
receive them and not reject them.
3. Even though phone booths are getting
harder to find in these days of cell
phones there are still a few out there and
I know of at least 2 people who got saved
by reading a tract in a phone booth. So if
you see one, leave a tract there for
someone to discover.
2. Leave them with your tip at a
restaurant. The key here is with a
generous tip. Don’t leave it in place of
the tip - that would be a bad testimony.
1. And the number one way to share a
Gospel tract is to simply hand them to
people you come in contact with. Keep them
in your car, purse or pocket and as you
encounter people you are ready to give
them one. This can be to the workers at
fast food restaurants, parking lot
attendants, toll booth operators, bank
tellers, etc. And my
favority is passing out tracts on public
beaches. Of course it helps to have warm
weather and the sun shining
Every Christian believer in Jesus Christ
has been Called to be a soul winner for
God's Kingdom. Using gospel tracts is a
very effective way to share the Good News
of Jesus Christ with your friends,
neighbors, co-workers, etc. Start winning
lost souls for our Lord Jesus today !
Have a blessed
day, Gary
