Zacchaeus

Was Zacchaeus a Gospel-Lurker?
If Zacchaeus were alive today, he might be an internet-Lurker -
just watching and listening but saying nothing.
My wife is one of those, regularly reading but seldom making her presence known.
Jesus looked up and said, "Zacchaeus come down, out of the sycamore tree."
I'm 95% certain that YOUR neighborhood has Gospel-lurkers.
Today's Gospel lurkers use the internet rather than Sycamore trees.
Is he or she able to see your church like Zaccheus saw Jesus?
In 2024, my FatherlessMale.com website had 196 visitors that spent at least 15 minutes
on the website. Sixty-six (66) of those people spent over an hour reading the material.
IF you have a church website, and IF your neighbors KNOW you have a website,
you will have lurkers. That is a good problem. Lurkers are curious.
Their curiosity is a tool in your tool bag.
Call out to them, bid them to join you.
Encourage them to communicate.
