My funny conversation with an Evangelical Christian

[MysticSang'ha]

I sometimes still pound the pavement with flyers promoting the business. One day while handing out flyers at a local event, a gentleman walked by doing the same, but inviting people to his church to hear the Good News.

We introduced ourselves, shook hands, and began some small talk. We then began talking about what we were promoting. He asked me if I was a Christian.

I replied, "I don't identify myself as such. And I doubt your congregation would recognize me as a Christian too."

"Oh, would you like to come to our Sunday service?"

"That's very sweet! Thank you! I worry though that I'd upset some of your members."

He asked, "Oh no...why would that be?"

"Because I like to pray and recognize the Kosmos by seated meditation. I don't want to upset anybody while they are attending."

"Oh I think you'll be fine."

"Really? Why is that?"

He said, "Because they all just sit with their eyes closed and listen to their own thoughts too. You'll fit right in."

That was so awesome.

Unexpected, but kind of neat.

We've had a few conversations since then. He's a cancer survivor and has been coping with heart disease. But he just shines with the sweetest smile and a contagious laugh. Great man, and I'd totally recommend anybody looking for a congregation that shares his faith to check him out and his sermons.

It's a trick! Runaway quickly!

He sounds like a good salesman. I wonder if it's true.

That's kind of refreshing, actually.
