Just because something has worked never means there's never like a better, right?

What's up, guys? Welcome to Five Minute Fatherhood. So one of the things that I love to try to

figure out is how can the family do outreach really well? And I'm checking out this new book by

Sam Chan. His book is evangelism in a skeptical world.

And one of the things he said, it's one of the things I love about this book is that he talks

about evangelism from an incredibly practical perspective. And he says things like one of his strategies

is coffee, dinner, gospel. I was like, okay, that's simple. That's nice. So he's basically

like, you're at work and you're getting to know somebody. And, you know, it's important that you don't just like, let me share with Jesus, you know, because oftentimes, you know, if you're having a conversation with somebody and you want to introduce them to your faith, you need to make sure that you develop a, you know, a good relationship.

But, you know, during a lot of that stuff, you just want to get to know each other.

Then the second step is dinner, which I thought was interesting. And I think, I think one of the

things that we've been really encouraging a lot of families around is it's a really interesting

experience. Yeah. And I think that if people can taste the kingdom of God by having dinner with your family.

And so if that's not something that you've ever used or not something you've ever considered,

we talk a lot about the power of developing a family meal because it can become really the sort
