"What's your opinion?" - Naija Early-Momo Evangelism

So, a few times over the last two weeks, I have woken up to the sound of evangelism.

I am very aware of fact that as Christians, it's our duty to spread the Good News of salvation to ALL men. However, isn't the purpose of evangelism defeated when you are barging in on the peace that sleepy-heads are enjoying? More likely than not, they are trying to enjoy the last 20 minutes of sleep (which we know are the sweetest), before getting up to join the pile-up of cars already on the Mainland-to-Island bridges. It's more likely that instead of getting up and asking you to pray with them, they'll start the morning by cussing you out. What then is the point?

Maybe I have not considered this from all angles. I am a Christian, but I don't think this is the best way to go about evangelism.

What say you?

('What's your Opinion?' may become a series. Let's see what the other contributors think.)

I have done early momo evangelism so I guess I'm biased, lol...

I say there's a time and place for every thing. Early in the morning might be okay for the evangelist(s) concerned but if you really want to get your message across sans baleful glares from your audience, let them be wide awake before you preach the Good News.

I am all for "what's your opinion?" becoming a series, when can we expect this?
