Bible Question:
How can I relate to co-workers that are constantly cursing God's name and breaking His laws? I have some authority in my position, but when you preach "foolishness to the unspiritual" (1Cor. 2:14), They will lose all respect for your authority. This is a Christian based construction company, so please send as many ideas as possible, I'm able to do things that would be frowned upon in other workplaces. I'm even thinking of printing Bible passages to post near the time clock. Any verse suggestions? |
Bible Answer: TP I use to have tracts on my work desk. The name of the tract was - "God's last name is not damn" When people would come over to talk to me, they would notice the tract on my desk, and then be more sensitive around me about taking the Lord's name in vain. It worked for me, without having to say a word to them. Who knows. It might work for you. Look in your local Christian book-stores, tract section and see if this tract is available. If you don't find it, ask the owners if they could locate them for you. |
