Is your talkin’ seasoned with “gracious and pleasant” words? We read here about it:
Colossians 4:5-6
5 Conduct yourself with wisdom in your interactions with outsiders (non-believers), make the most of each opportunity [treating it as something precious]. 6 Let your speech at all times be gracious and pleasant, seasoned with salt, so that you will know how to answer each one [who questions you].
Interaction with any individual (1 Peter 3:15), however brief or casual, should be seen as a special opportunity given to us by God, “something precious“, a chance to “answer each one [who questions you]“ about your faith in Jesus and hope for the future. “Make the most of every opportunity.”
FOR MORE:
However brief or casual – throughout most days we have a precious chance to give individuals hope for the future, show them the love of Jesus.

1 Peter 3:15 Excerpt: “Always be ready to give a [logical] defense…with gentleness and respect.”
But in your hearts set Christ apart [as holy—acknowledging Him, giving Him first place in your lives] as Lord. Always be ready to give a [logical] defense to anyone who asks you to account for the hope and confident assurance [elicited by faith] that is within you, yet [do it] with gentleness and respect.
