For me, it was spring of 1986. I was a senior in high school paired with a fellow junior high school brother. If the door was answered, it was either "not interested" or end up in debate.
I wouldn't say it was a waste of time, but I did come away from the experience times are changing in the local churches and if door knocking becomes an expectation, I didn't want to be part of it.
