Bezeugen Tract Club – October 2025

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36)

Many times while sharing the Gospel I have had people explain to me that because they know Jesus, they can sin all they want and God will forgive them. Paul addressed this in Romans 6:15, “What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!” These are good opportunities to explain more of the Bible to people.  I had been pondering and praying about the new tract this month for a long time, probably several years or more. Two things happened recently that set the wheels in motion in my head to design this new tract that we call “License to Sin”.

First, a recent sermon I heard the pastor explained that salvation is not a “license to sin” but actually a “license to obey”. See John 3:36. In Matthew 28 Jesus instructs to make disciples and teach them to obey all that I have commanded you. John 3:36 indicates that disobedience means God’s wrath remains on you. Simply put, obedience is a sign of salvation. This really clicked with how I’d been thinking about it for a long time and got the wheels rolling in my head to design a tract.

Second, a couple of friends and I were in the Dallas West End sharing the Gospel. If you have not been there, there are basically three main areas. The DART train track runs east/west with a station on the west side of Lamar St. People hang around waiting for their train and are coming and going. On the east side of Lamar north of the train there is a bus terminal area where lots of people again are milling around getting on and off buses. We frequent this area because we often park in such a way that this area is between our parking and the train stop. On the south side of the tracts there is another bus stop. I don’t tend to go to this area as much. But one day recently, I had ventured to this area and was handing out tracts and talking to people. One man said, “that’s ok, I know Jesus, and he has given me a license to sin”. Before I could hardly respond he stepped onto the bus and was gone.

I played with several ideas of how to capture this in a tract. I got input from several people. We hope the final version turns out to lead to many great conversations with people.

October is often referred to as Cancer Awareness month. At Bezeugen Ministries we have had many close friends and tract club members who have personally been impacted by cancer. Some of them are with the Lord now. This tract was made to honor them and share with the world that there is a real “cancer” called sin that must be remediated. You can read more about the story of the cancer awareness tract online at https://www.bezeugentractclub.org/?p=959

Finally, October brings Halloween. Halloween is a great opportunity to share the Gospel. You have kids coming directly to your door and asking “trick or treat”. Why not give them a “treat” like a chocolate bar or some candy along with a Gospel tract. Nearly any tract will do, but we are including a special Halloween tract that was developed several years ago. In addition to trick or treating at your house, many churches have “trunk or treats” and communities have fun family friendly events. You can hand out tracts to attendees of these events. If you need more tracts for your Halloween outreaches, they can be requested online. You can read more about that tract online.

You can also multiply, your efforts! Encourage your friends to join the Bezeugen Tract Club. Then they can also hand out 30 FREE tracts per month. Tell them to go to “Enroll dot tract dot club”.

Bezeugen Tract Club – September 2025

“And he said to them, ‘Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.'” (Mark 16:15)

Dear Bezeugen Tract Club Member,

In recent mailings we sent a simple form with a questionnaire asking you what are some of your favorite Bezeugen Ministries tract designs. Not surprisingly tracts like Get Out of Hell Free, Are You a Good Person, and Thank you have topped the lists. But some other tracts have been mentioned that we had not printed recently. This month we are including some of those designs that you, our members, have asked for.

As summer ends, kids go back to school, and sports leagues start up all around the country. Therefore we are including the Play by the Rules tract, designed with kids in mind. Using relatable language and a sports theme, it’s perfect for the new school year when many children are involved in activities. Share it with young athletes to show that, just like games, life has rules—and God’s Word provides the ultimate set of rules. This tract was originally released in 2011. You can read more about the story of the play by the rules tract online.

The May the Lord be with you tract is often a favorite in May because people will say on “May 4th”, “May the Fourth be with you” or “May the Force be with You”. This year marked 48 years since the original Star Wars movie was released on May 25, 1977. It’s still popular and most everyone knows the iconic theme song and dramatic opening sequence with the background scrolling up the screen. The tract leverages that imagery to remind people that the Lord is always with those who believe in Him!

According to grok, “The phrase “Extra! Extra! Read all about it!” originated in the mid-19th century in the United States as a way for newspaper street vendors, often young newsboys, to attract attention to special editions of newspapers, known as “extras.” These were published outside the regular printing schedule to cover major breaking news, such as wars, assassinations, or significant events like the sinking of the Titanic. The term “extra” referred to these additional editions, which were printed to deliver urgent or sensational stories that couldn’t wait for the next regular edition. Before newspapers, broadsides—single-sided printed sheets posted in public—served a similar purpose, but extras replaced them as newspapers became more widespread.”

The Extra, Extra tract leverages this to attract people’s attention to the Gospel message printed on the back. President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas, at 12:30 PM. According to online research the news spread across the United States in minutes and around the world in about a day. President Donald Trump was shot in the ear during an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, 2024, news spread rapidly due to modern communication technologies, including live television, social media, and global news networks. In the later case news spread around the world in less than twelve hours.

When it comes to the most important news of all, why is it taking so long? Two thousand years ago, Jesus said, ‘Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation’ (Mark 16:15). Yet, some still have not heard. It’s up to us, believers in Jesus to tell others. Hand out these tracts to make sure people hear the Gospel.

Bezeugen Tract Club – August 2025

“It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” Hebrews 10:31

Dear Bezeugen Tract Club Member,

We’re excited to share this month’s mailing with you, featuring an updated Are You Ready tract. The front now boldly asks, “Heaven or Hell?” This addition mirrors the direct question we often ask in conversations, ensuring the tract grabs attention and points readers to the urgent message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ alone. We pray it sparks curiosity and opens hearts to the hope of The Gospel.

Also included is the Play by the Rules tract, designed with kids in mind. Using relatable language and a sports theme, it’s perfect for the new school year when many children are involved in activities. Share it with young athletes to show that, just like games, life has rules—and God’s Word provides the ultimate set of rules.

We’ve heard from some members about having an oversupply of tracts. Our goal is to equip you to share the gospel daily, with 30 tracts for 30 days. However, we understand busy schedules can make this challenging. For inspiration, check out our Basic Evangelism Training Seminar for practical tips or join our daily tract challenges on social media. The Everyday Club on Facebook also offers encouragement to keep you motivated.

Here are some simple, creative ways to share tracts. Try one and let us know how it goes on social media!

  • At the gas pump: Slip a tract into the credit card slot after paying, or hand one to nearby customers.
  • At stores or restaurants: Give a tract to the cashier with a kind “Thank you” or “Here’s a gospel tract for you.”
  • With a generous tip: Leave a tract with a generous tip when paying a bill. Let your generosity reflect the gospel’s love.
  • On tabletops: Leave tracts on tables at hotels, cafes, or waiting areas. Check back later—you might find some gone!
  • In return envelopes: Include a tract in return address envelopes for bills or other mail.
  • With outgoing mail: Add a tract to any mailed bills or letters.
  • To helpful people: Thank someone who assists you (e.g., a store employee) with a tract, especially Thank You or Million Dollar Bill tracts.
  • With friends: Share tracts with church members or acquaintances. Your church might even have a spot to display them for others.
  • Door-to-door: Slip a tract into a neighbor’s door or introduce yourself, offering a tract and an invitation to discuss it.

Sharing the gospel can feel daunting, but as Hebrews 10:31 reminds us, it’s far more fearful for someone to face eternity without Christ. Love compels us to act. If you try one of these ideas, please share your experience with us!

If you’re consistently overstocked, consider switching to a bi-monthly or quarterly membership at http://renew.tract.club/. We’re here to support your evangelism journey.

In Christ’s service,
Bezeugen Ministries

Bezeugen Tract Club – June 2025

I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life. (1 John 5:13)


 What do you believe? That is the title of the new tract this month. This tract was designed by our ministry partner at One Million Tracts. It’s a great discussion starter. I’ve been handing them out for some time now and striking up conversations with people. You can easily move from the tract to the Gospel simply by asking another question “what is more important, what you believe or what is true?”

I recently was talking with a young man who said “I can’t believe in a God who would create Hell.” So I asked him a few questions to find out what he believes. “Science”, he said. Okay, so I pointed at a tree and asked where did it come from. Essentially what followed was a sequence of questions asking where did that come from. Where did the tree come from? A seed? Where did the seed come from? The ground. Where did the ground come from? Only took a bit before he was trying to explain that the whole universe came from an explosion from nothing. Although he said “blackhole” instead of nothing.

So then I explained to him, that it’s easier to just believe the Bible “In the beginning, God, created the heavens and the earth”. He didn’t fall on his face in repentance. But we had a nice conversation, he ended up listening to the gospel, and he took the gospel tract and said he had a lot to think about.

The new tract talks about the search for truth. So it doesn’t matter if the man believes God wouldn’t make Hell. If God made Hell, he did. Truth is truth regardless of what someone believes.

I like to use the example that “let’s say I don’t believe in trucks” and then ask a simple question, “what happens if I stand in the street when the next truck comes along?” Not too hard to realize I’d get run over even if I don’t believe in trucks. In the same way regardless of what someone believes about God it doesn’t change who God is.

We have also enclosed some of our most popular tracts. We hope and pray that every one of them will reach someone who needs the Gospel. Please follow us on social media. There you’ll find daily tract challenges. Complete a challenge and post what you did to complete it. Or if you’d like to connect with others that are actively sharing their faith, join the “Everyday Club” on Facebook and share how you are sharing the Gospel every day. There are many encouraging stories of people witnessing every day.

If you like the Bezeugen Tract Club, please tell a friend. They can enroll online and get 30 FREE Gospel tracts per month just like you do. Have them go online to “enroll dot tract dot club” that’s http://enroll.tract.club

There are many summer events that offer opportunities to share the Gospel. Maybe you and some friends could get a booth at a Farmers Market. Or you could go to a major league or minor league baseball game and hand out Gospel tracts. Perhaps you’d like to go to a Memorial Day or Independence Day parade and share gospel tracts at the parade. The blog (www.bezeugen.org/blog/) has a number of articles about how to do outreaches like these.

In any of those cases, if you need more tracts (up to 500) you can request them by donation. All the information is available on the website at http://donate.bezeugen.org/. Once there click the link to the “Shopify Site” where you can then request tracts or Million Dollar Bill tracts.

For larger quantities you can order them from our printer: www.OneMillionTracts.com

Bezeugen Tract Club – May 2025

This is the 200th mailing of the Bezeugen Tract Club. What started as an idea to provide a few people some tracts each month has led to 200 mailings to thousands of members with millions of tracts used to reach the lost. While only God knows how many more people will be in Heaven due to these mailings, we know that people have been encouraged to step out of their comfort zone and share the Gospel. One new member last month indicated that she heard about the Bezeugen Tract Club because “Card blew in my yard that said do not fear during a bad wind storm!”. A recent membership renewal included these kind words of encouragement “Your tracts are so much fun to share, I love how they are small, to the point and spot on.“  Thank you for your kind words.

We feel like celebrating the 200th mailing milestone. Enclosed please find a special edition Bezeugen Tract Club UVdtf sticker. These stickers can be put on your laptop, a notebook, or even on a mug. Check our YouTube and social media for some video instructions on how to put it on. Or see the link to the online version of this letter below.

In the March letter I wrote that I can neither confirm nor deny that we are now working on a “Taco Tract”.  However, you can now see from the enclosed tracts that it is confirmed. These new Taco Trivia tracts have been so much fun to hand out. One day handing them out at a transit station in Dallas someone asked if we were giving out Tacos. Great idea. But, no we were not giving out tacos. Strange thing is, he claimed he could smell tacos. Of well. He got a tract, and got to hear the Gospel!

May is Mother’s Day. We are enclosing the Greatest Gift tract. These tracts are great for mothers because they are a great gift to us and many mothers would say their children are their own greatest gift. You can read more about the origin of this tract in a past tract club letter. Hand them out as you go. And be sure to save one for your own mother! You could mail it to her in a card, or hand it to her in person!

If you like the Bezeugen Tract Club, please tell a friend. They can enroll online and get 30 FREE Gospel tracts per month just like you do. Have them go online to “enroll dot tract dot club” that’s http://enroll.tract.club

If you need more tracts than the 30 we send free each month you can request more by donation. You can request Business Card Tracts or Million Dollar Bill tracts. You can also make a donation online.

Bezeugen Tract Club – April 2025

He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. (Matthew 28:6)

When sharing the Gospel with people we will often ask “do you know where you will spend eternity” or “if you die tonight will you go to Heaven?” In either case… IYKYK. Or at least you should. IYKYK is short for “If You Know You Know”. A believer in Jesus should know for sure that they have salvation due to faith alone in Jesus Christ. Our new tract uses this as a segway to the gospel. It has been well received so far as we have been handing them out at a number of places over the past couple months as we try them out. Hand out the tract and ask people one of the questions in the beginning of this paragraph. See if you can have a conversation with them and share the Gospel.

We hope you like it. We have new tracts lined up to send you for the next few months. We are excited about getting these new resources into your hands!

Easter is Sunday, April 20th. The enclosed “Hoppy Easter” has been a long time favorite. We originally designed this tract by some funny conversations talking to people at the shopping mall where you could get a picture with the Easter Bunny. It’s interesting how culture appropriates the holiday and turns it into something it isn’t. Easter is about the resurrection of Jesus. What does that have to do with a bunny? Nothing. That’s thepoint of the tract. It says “Hoppy” as a joke. But really we mean “Happy Easter”. Why? Because “he is risen, as he said” (Matthew 28:6). Use this tract as a springboard to the Gospel.

Easter is a great time to share the Gospel. Do it with care and compassion. Avoid  preachy sales pitches. You can ask if they celebrate Easter? If so, why? Explain why you celebrate Easter and what it means to you. Explain the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus, especially why that was needed for our salvation.

In Habakkuk 3:18 the prophet says “I will take joy in the God of my salvation “. He was looking forward to Jesus and able to take joy. We look back to Jesus because of Easter. Now think about it this way. The real joy is salvation. But why? The Bible says we are saved by Faith Alone in Christ Alone. That joy then steps from Christ and what He did; at Easter.

As you talk to people you may find that they believe they are going earn salvation due to their own “good works”. The “joy in salvation” would be based on them rather than on Christ. Or what about certain religions like Catholicism where salvation is Jesus plus works? In this situation, when finding “joy in salvation” is it the part Jesus did? Or the self righteous “works part” they did?

Let’s not fall for that. The Bible is clear that faith leading to salvation comes from Christ alone and His finished work on the cross. Share that with people so that they can get joy in their salvation too.

If you like the Bezeugen Tract Club, tell a friend. They can enroll online and get 30 FREE Gospel tracts per month just like you do. Enrolling is easy. Just have them go online to “enroll dot tract dot club” that’s http://enroll.tract.club

If you need more tracts than the 30 we send free each month you can request more by donation. All the information is available online. You can also order more tracts by donation.

Bezeugen Tract Club – March 2025

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)
 

This article is from the 198th mailing of the Bezeugen tract Club. If you are not already a member and would like to receive 30 FREE Gospel tracts per month you can enroll online.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is in the news a lot. ChatGPT, CoPilot, Grok, and Gemini are all what is referred to as “Gen AI” or “Generative AI”. This means that based on a prompt, they can generate a response. That response is able to cull through all of the information on the Internet, which is nearly all of the information known to man. Compare this with a generic  “web search engine” like Google, that process returns a web page which contains the key words you were looking for. GenAI is great at summarizing the vast amounts of data out there into meaningful information. Now, you do have to take what it tells you with a grain of salt sometimes, because it’s response might be skewed to represent bias of whoever programmed the AI in the first place.

I’ve used the ChatGPT, CoPilot and Grok alongside my Bible study as a way to quickly look up something. For example I can ask Grok ”what does John 3:16 mean?” and within a couple seconds information will be flowing on my phone summarizing thousands of years of information about this Bible verse. This can save time of looking up in a study Bible or a commentary. But it might not completely replace any of those other resources.

So, what about when it comes to sharing the Gospel. We often say that when we talk to people we will start in the natural and then swing to the spiritual. You’ll notice that most of the tracts we send have something to do with the natural realm on the front. Then on the back there is a transition to the Gospel message. These tracts have been developed by years of experience of personal evangelism over hundreds and thousands of conversations. I’ve often thought I could transition a conversation from anything to the Gospel.

Recently we got some interesting feedback from one of our tract club members who sent an email that said “ If I ever received a taco theme tract I would leave those at mexican restaurants.” So I started to think what this tract might look like. Maybe “Let’s Taco Bout the Gospel” on the front with a picture of a taco? But what would the transition be?

So off to ChatGPT to ask “How can I transition a conversation from tacos to the gospel”. To which it replied:

Transitioning from a casual topic like tacos to the gospel can be done smoothly and naturally. Here’s an example of how to guide the conversation:

· Find a Connection: Look for a way to relate tacos to a spiritual truth. For example: “Tacos are so good, but you know what’s even better? Knowing that God provides us with everything, including food and the hope of eternal life.”

· Use Gratitude: Shift to gratitude as a bridge: “I’m so thankful for simple joys like tacos. It reminds me how God gives us so many blessings. Have you ever thought about where all our blessings come from?”

· Talk About Satisfaction: Use the idea of satisfaction as a metaphor: “Tacos can really hit the spot when you’re hungry. It makes me think about how Jesus said He’s the bread of life—only He can truly satisfy our deepest hunger.”

· Share Your Own Experience: Relate it to your faith story: “I remember how I used to chase after things to make me happy—like food, fun, and friends—but nothing satisfied me until I understood what Jesus offers. Have you ever felt that way?”

· Ask Questions: Engage the person thoughtfully: “Tacos are great, but have you ever thought about what really satisfies your soul?”

By keeping it conversational, warm, and relevant, you can guide the discussion toward the gospel naturally.

Grok and CoPilot return something similar. I am not saying that every answer is good to use in the real world. Use your judgement. Compare what the AI is telling you verses your knowledge of the Bible. If a case fits, we’d love to hear how you use AI in sharing the Gospel. Post it in the Everyday Club, tag us on social media, or email us how it goes. We’d love to hear from you.

I can neither confirm nor deny that we are now working on a “Taco Tract”. But maybe you’ll see one in a future mailing! In the meantime, enclosed you’ll find your monthly supply of tracts. Some are themed specifically for this month.  For more information on this months mailing www.bezeugen.org/blog/?p=24xx

Bezeugen Tract Club – February 2025

How did you do with last months 21 Day Challenge? Did you complete the challenge yourself? Did you read the Gospel of John a chapter a day? I like to complete the challenge every month on the first to twenty first of each month. As I share the Gospel with people I encourage them to do the challenge. The reason why is stated in John 20:31, “these things are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” As we go out to share the Gospel that is the ultimate goal, that others would “have life in His name”.

Just as people often think of New Year Resoltutions in January, when people think of February their mind often turns to Valentine’s Day. It’s a season of love. Yes, it’s typically about romantic love. Yet without God we could never know what love is. The Bible speaks much about love (see 1 John, 1 Corinthians 13, etc). In 1 John 3:16 we read that in love “Jesus laid down his life for us”.

Therefore in February we invite you to use the enclosed tracts to share the love of Jesus with those you meet. The red John 3:16 tracts have been popular for years not only at Valentines Day, but throughout the year. They are one of our most requested tracts. The XOXO tract was introduced last year and takes a new direction with the popular hugs and kisses theme.

One of our tract club members recently sent us a tract display he put up at his church. You can request extra tracts and then get a business card holder from an office supply store or order one on Amazon and then you can also do something similar at your church. We have ordered this one from Amazon before and it works well. 

 Here is how it looks:

Until next month. Be faithful and bold to share the Gospel everyday “as you go”! If you are not already a member of the Bezeugen Tract Club you can enroll online and receive 30 FREE Gospel tracts per month.

Bezeugen Tract Club – January 2025 (196th Mailing)

These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also. (Acts 17:6)

Happy New Year! Many people start a new year making resolutions. Those same people mostly fail at keeping them. The most common resolutions have to do with losing weight and eating more healthy. But by February, gym memberships are unused and equipment is for sale on Facebook Marketplace for half price.

A few years ago we created the 21 Day Challenge tract. So rather than a resolution to get healthy, How about challenging people to a more realistic goal; to read the Gospel of John in 21 days. That’s just one chapter a day. What if you challenged someone you meet to read the Gospel of John and then meet back with them weekly to see how it went for them?

Want a loftier goal? How about reading through the whole Bible in a year!

What if every member of the Bezeugen Tract Club were to refer another member this month? Our membership would double. In the course of 2025 twice as many tracts would be sent out. Twice as many people would hear the Gospel. Yet, surprisingly we get more members from Internet Search and social media, than word of mouth from family and friends. Ask your family and friends to enroll online at “enroll dot tract dot club” that’s http://enroll.tract.club

What if every member of the Bezeugen Tract Club were to pray for all of their family and friends that don’t know Jesus? How many names would be on your list? One, ten, a hundred? While witnessing to close family and friends can be hard, maybe you can just give them (or mail them) one of the tracts in this mailing. Tell them something like “someone sent me this, I was wondering what you think of it”.

In Acts 17:6 it says that the early church “turned the world upside down”.  Let’s make 2025 the year to share the Gospel every day, reach the lost for Christ, and turn our corner of the world upside down.

Enclosed is a newly redesigned What Does the Bible say bookmark. The challenge to read the Gospel of John, followed by Acts, Romans and James is included on the back As you witness to people, share the bookmark with them and then encourage them to read the Bible. Romans 10:17 tells us that “faith comes from hearing and hearing through the word of Christ”. So if someone will commit to reading the Bible then God can work on them!

As you read each chapter of the Gospel of John, put a check next to the chapter:

___ John 1      ___ John 2      ___ John 3      ___ John 4      ___ John 5      ___ John 6

___ John 7      ___ John 8      ___ John 9      ___ John 10    ___ John 11    ___ John 12

___ John 13    ___ John 14    ___ John 15    ___ John 16    ___ John 17    ___ John 18

___ John 19    ___ John 20    ___ John 21

Bezeugen Tract Club – December 2024

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6

As we approach the end of 2024 a generous supporter of Bezeugen has offered to match all donations up to a total of $2024.  That means that you can double your impact in reaching people with the Gospel.  All you need to do is make a donation in November or December and Mande will take care of the rest!  A tract club membership costs Bezeugen approx. $30 per member per year.  Your donations can go farther in covering these costs by taking advantage of this matching opportunity. 

I was in Dallas at the West End witnessing and I asked Shawn if he would spend eternity in Heaven or Hell. “Hell”, came the response. I was a little shocked, because in all my years of sharing the Gospel with people, few will admit it, even after sharing the Law with them. Yet, Shawn was convinced he was going to Hell even before we talked about any of the Ten Commandments. So I asked, “does that concern you?” The response came back, “No”. He went on to explain that he didn’t think anyone would miss him when he is gone. He told me about broken relationships with his mom, his sister, and his brothers. His mom blamed him for things that had happened to the family.

Sadly, as we head towards Christmas, Shawn’s story is probably not unique. And if a complete stranger will tell me these things within a minute of meeting him, imagine how many other hurting people are out there that need some hope.

I told Shawn that regardless of his family situation and those broken relationships, that there is a God who loves Him. This God loves him so much that he already has paid the price for his eternity in Heaven. I didn’t have to really ask him about the Ten Commandments, because he already had said he thought he was going to Hell. So instead I simply said, that we all deserve to go to Hell because we have lied, stolen, hated, and/or looked with lust. He could relate.

I gave him an earthly courtroom example. Let’s say you broke four laws of the city (of Dallas). You stand before the judge and get sentenced to life in prison or a million dollar fine. Do you have a million dollars? “No”, came the response. I went on by continuing with, what if as the bailiff was leading you out to prison, someone you didn’t even know came in and handed the judge a million dollars saying “I’d like to pay Shawn’s fine”. The judge looks at you and says “your fine has been paid in full, you are free to go”. How would that make you feel?

Grateful! Yes, and that is just a small picture of the Gospel. Hell is far worse than life in prison. Jesus paid the fine so you can have eternal life.

I told Shawn that I’d be praying for him to accept Jesus’ payment for his sin. I also told him I’d be praying for reconciliation with his family. Will you join me in praying for Shawn to receive faith in Jesus and be granted eternal life with us in Heaven? Thank you!

Do you think you can share this message with 30 people before Christmas? There are thirty Gospel tracts enclosed. What about 100 or more people? We have extra Christmas tracts available by donation.

If you are not already a member of the Bezeugen Tract Club, you can enroll online and receive 30 FREE Gospel tracts per month.
