when i was a parachute rigger, my fisrt duty station was nas meridian, ms i was assigned to the "rigger shop" right away due to personel shortage. a shop Pr, maintains everything the pilot wears, G-suits, harnesses and survival vest.........everything in the vest is to be tied in with 30" of cord, tied with a bowline knot....i started tying in those little poket gideon bibles, when they went through their vis. inspections of their vest, id hear a lot of "what the ........" (funny how the Word will shut ppl up) but, no one complained to the point of telling me to take them out, it also show me who the believers where, and they thanked me for it. but , when my boss figured out it was me, had me go TAD to the flight line, and tool room for almost a year, he didnt want me in the shop, because i was a "jesus freak".....anyway, ....two months before he left to go to a new duty station, he came to kno the Lord.which is always kool.
but working with pagans vs. redeemed pagans, i think its just where we all are in our sanctification , some are just starting out, some dont hardly kno, and some should kno better. and that grates on our pride.
