Your heart for evangelism, for the true Gospel, and for getting the Gospel to the obviously lost is certainly admirable, Amber! Flesh and blood didn't give you that heart...

But, as one learns when one lives in a dangerous, big city, when strangers approach you even in Wal-Mart, it's not often a good idea to engage in conversations with them. These people wouldn't have said five words to me before I'd have walked away from them. I'd have been booking but good.

On the other hand, Mormon neighbors... If it were I with Mormon neighbors, I'd remain friendly, keep praying for them and keep explaining WHY I don't want to hear about "another testimony of Jesus Christ." Mormons do get converted sometimes, like a lot of the time... I've known many who have been converted.
