Recently I participated in a support group for evangelism.  As we discussed various strategies for sharing Christ, one of the participants made the comment, “Of course, I don’t want to treat the unbeliever as a project.”  There seemed to be general assent that he was right.  And, put that way, who wouldn’t agree?  It sounds so ugly to treat another person as a “project”.  This is, in fact, currently a bit of common lore shared across our society today, even outside of Christian circles.  People should never be viewed as “projects”.
