Penn Gillette on Christian Evangelism

I had this video emailed to me a few weeks ago and wanted to share it with all of you. This video is of Penn Gillette giving his take on evangelism. The reason why I think this is interesting, because, if you know of Penn Gillette, you will recognize him as being one of the most popular magicians today. He is also an outspoken atheist. However, I think he has some interesting things to say about evangelism that we as Christians need to learn and practice as we go into all the world with the gospel. Penn talks about a situation where a Christian came up to him after one of his shows and offered him one of those green Gideon Bibles. Penn, though he has not received Christ (as of yet), was very impressed with the manner and behavior of the Christian who approached him. There are things that we can learn from this man.
