I hang out with a lot of non christians and they dont' seem to care either, but what they are envious about is that my life is amost perfect. i have God in it and he gives me confidence and stregnth and just about every other good thing in life possible. show God through your actions. people can tell when you have been "changed" in this case by the grace of God. so going up to someone and preaching as quick as possible might not be the best way, but give it time, let it sink in to them. they know God's there, they just need to see it.
and for the rest of the replies, yes an encounter with God will knock anyone off their feet, that is a sure way to make them see who our Jesus is!

Maybe your friend doesn't realize how amazing God truly is. Just keep living your life that is a witness of the things God has done inside of you and be open to them and thier feelings. Eventually they'll want to talk to you and see what this special thing is inside of you.

Sonia, everything that people have said is great advice. My addition to it would be to just pray about it. Pray that God will work in your friend's heart, and give you the wisdom to know what to say. other than that, just continue to live your life for Jesus, and witness to your friend through your actions.

Lord, i pray that You will help Sonia witness to her friend. Help her to know what to say that will touch her friend's heart and plant a seed of salvation. Work in her friend's heart, that they will be ready and willing to accept the Truth. Let Your will be done in both of their lives. In Jesus' name i pray, amen.

Only thing you can do is continue to pray and hope that your friend will one day listen to what you are trying to tell her because it is something they really need to hear. So, Remeber this. "We should please others. If we do what helps them, we will build them up in the Lord." Romans 15:2. One day your friend will listen and you're going to make the big difference in her life.
