The answer is a simple one:
We have to invite them if we want them to learn about Jesus. It's that simple. No magic formula. Just ASK! That's all!
How can we expect people to learn about Jesus if we don't invite them to church? It's where I first learned about Jesus. An elderly lady, Mrs. Chappell, asked my mom if she could take us kids to church on Sunday mornings. Back in those days you could trust people like her to do what's best for your kids. That's where my journey to Jesus began. One kind, sweet, old lady, with such a wonderful heart for Jesus that she shared it with everyone that she ever came into contact with. She was the most amazing woman I ever knew. She loved Jesus and people so much that it just overflowed in her life. It spilled over in huge quantities. I know she's in heaven today with an enormous crown of jewels on her head. Mine will not even come close to comparing to hers (not that we'll be comparing when we get to heaven anyways). She was one of a kind. There's not many like her that walk this earth today. But if you have one like her in your life treasure them. They don't come any better. Believe me because I'm speaking from experience.
