When I came to RSW last year, one of my greatest challenges was the soul winning program. In fact, before I left Norway, I felt that a strong fear tried to come on me concerning this, because I did not think I would be able to live up to what would be expected in this area. I have never been very bold in sharing my faith, and have felt condemnation for that.
From the beginning, I would only speak with one person at a time and even that was a challenge for me to do. Sometimes I prayed with one or two, sometimes with none. But I kept on coming every week, and gradually it became a little easier for me. And I got encouraged when I saw people’s countenance change as they received.
I have tried to avoid going to nursing homes, because I have worked in one for many years, and did not want to go back into that environment. A couple of weeks ago, though, we walked by a nursing home while soul winning. It was like the Lord had already prepared this place for us. I ended up praying with 6 of the people living there, and it actually changed my attitude about going soul winning in nursing homes.
The same day I prayed with a family in a park. I first prayed with the mother, and then individually with each of her two children. I have to say that seeing children receive Jesus has maybe been the most precious thing for me in soul winning.
I know that I am still not the kind of soul winner they expect for us to be after attending RBI/RSW (I think the most I have prayed within one day is 16 people), but I have come a long way from where I started out.
