On this day, Tony's first UBER rider stepped out of his apartment sporting the latest in American Evangelical and politically conservative fashion--a bright red "Make America Great Again" baseball hat. Moments after climbing in the front passenger seat of Tony's car, the man offered his bona fides. He was a proud union shop steward and a proud supporter of President Donald Trump. The man made the declarations with a tone and look in his eye as if to dare Tony to disagree.
Tony didn't bite. Tony was hoping for a gospel conversation.
Tony and his rider talked about the state of the unions, at his rider's workplace and the nation. By the time Tony was able to transition the conversation toward spiritual matters, the ride was almost complete.
When Tony's rider heard that he spends time at some liberal colleges and universities proclaiming the gospel, the rider asserted his own faith in Christ.
This audio picks up not long before Tony asks his rider how he came to faith in Christ. Tony had already given the rider a gospel tract and his phone number.
Tony asked his rider how he came to faith in Christ. The man's testimony was void of the gospel.
By the time Tony got to the gospel, he was pulling into the parking lot of the rider's destination. There wasn't much time.
Tony's rider heard the gospel and seemed to affirm what he heard. Hopefully the man will want to grab a cup of coffee with Tony so the two can further talk about the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
