That's well and good but there are so many Christians sitting on their laurels using a similar excuse so they don't have to get out of their comfort zones. Your silence and keeping yourself to yourself isn't going to spread the gospel in your neighborhood or the world. This doesn't mean that you need to go out banging pots and pans screaming about Jesus but you do, we all do, need to ask God for opportunities to witness and we'll have to use our voices to do so. If we ask then He will set witnessing opportunities up for us, I can speak from experience, but we have to ask. Scripture says "you do not have because you do not ask". So ask. But we as Christians need to get out into the world to do this after we ask.

Great clip thanks Nathan, Its amazing how our faith gets a reality about it when we go back to the roots of where we came from and look at God's grace towards us as we have walked along the path.
