What is a spring board?

Answer 1

A lot of preachers use what is called Springboards for preaching and witnessing. Here is an example : The Key: Back in the old west, a number of men where upstairs in a boarding house amusing themselves with a game of cards when there was a cry from the street below of "Fire, Fire!" The men looked at one another in disbelief. One of the windows grew orange with flames." Wait said the dealer," " Lets just finish this hand; we've got plenty of time-I have a key to the back door." The men nodded in approval, then quickly picked up the dealt cards. Precious minutes passed. One of the men became nervous as the flames licked though the now broken window. With darting eyes and a sweat filled brow, he asked for the key. "Coward!" muttered the dealer as he tossed across the key. Each of them than rushed to the door and waited with bated breath as the key was placed into the lock." It won't turn!"was the cry."let me have it!" said the dealer. As he tried in vain to turn the key, he whispered in Horror, "it's the wrong key!"
