As I tell people all the time, the uniform is a great tool for witnessing. Not only does the uniform allow us access to almost anywhere at anytime, it will always help start a conversation. Another example again today was just stopping at the grocery store on the way home. I was asked, "what are the symbols on the uniform about?" With just a couple moments from the check out to the car I was able to explain I was with the Salvation Army. When the "bagger" mentioned he thought we were just a thrift store I was able to explain we are called "The Salvation Army" and the "Salvation" was specifically because our goal is to let everyone know that only through a relationship with Jesus can one find Salvation from hell to heaven. I shared that all our services were a way to show God's love in a practical way and then explain to them the His ultimate gift of love to save them through Jesus Christ.
Not bold enough to approach a stranger, just wear your uniform, be prayed up, and be ready to share when they come to you.
The uniform is an amazing tool to help you with your verbal witness. Soldier up - dress for battle spiritually and physically, and share the gospel with someone this week!
Live holy, preach Jesus.
