The Bridge to the Gospel

The Gospel is attractive to those who recognize their need, those with a felt need. They are thirsty and know it, hungry and know it, missing something and know it. Where that knowledge of lack comes from is another thing, but the point remains: no one embraces the gospel unless they need it and know they do. Of course, we never know who needs it. But most people around us will not feel that need at all times or at many times. We keep dispensing it and recognize our dispensing may or may not find a recipient.
