Summary: As a child, I had a life of evangelism modeled for me by my father who came to know Jesus in his 20s. During the week, my dad was a builder. But, on the weekends, he was an evangelist. Dad was always looking for ways to share the gospel and he got the entire family involved as well. And so, I was raised with the understanding that if you're a kid you go to school and study, and if you're a dad you go to work to make a living. But, no matter how old you are, your life should be devoted to one big thing: preaching the Gospel and saving souls. That's what really matters. I'm glad my dad instilled that lesson in me while I was young because he died very suddenly at age 34. I was only 10 years old and my youngest sister wasn't even born yet. Dad's passing taught me that people die when you don't expect them to. Not everyone lives to be old, and that makes evangelism and spreading the Good News of Jesus even more important. People of every age bracket die. In the same way, people of every age bracket can share the life-giving truth of Jesus Christ. Children can proclaim their faith just as well as adults. As my dad taught me, we are all charged with the wonderful job of sharing the light of Christ with the dark world around us. There is no time to delay!
