Surfing the Inner N8

A couple days ago I pulled out my old baseball autograph collection from when I was a kid.  There were several that I’d forgotten about.  One thing I found that was really cool was something that Bobby Doerr, Hall of Famer and former second baseman for the Boston Red Sox, sent me.

Bobby Doerr (right) with teammate Ted Williams. 

Not only did he sign the card I’d sent him, but he also sent me a catchy and concise tract.  As a 12-year-old I didn’t pay any attention to it, but as an adult, I realize what a great idea that was.

So why do I still have it?  That’s one of the cleverest parts: he signed it!  After all, who’s going to throw away some tract if it’s signed by a Hall of Famer?

What a great example of using your influence to share the message of God’s love in Jesus Christ!
