Out Of This World

When I was a kid, we used to say ‘far out.” We’d say this expression when we thought something was really cool. Jesus is far out. There’s never been anyone like Him and there never will be. He raised people from the dead, healed the blind and lame and fed multitudes of people. In fact, you won’t find anyone else in the Bible who healed a person who was born blind except for Jesus. But Jesus is far out as in out of this world. He is out of this world. He is seated at the right hand of God the Father in Heaven. He truly is far out. He is out of this world.  [Read more…]

Nice Problem

Ministry Update September 25, 2016

On Friday nights we typically pray, sing hymns, preach and sing hymns to end the night. But last Friday we couldn’t even get started praying at first because people were coming up to us and asking us questions. We had four or five one on one conversations before we even prayed! Now that’s a nice “problem” to have.  [Read more…]

What Is The Work Of God?

What Is the Work of God?

What is the work of God? Notice, I didn’t say the works of God. Many of us can name various works of God; such as when God made the heaven and the earth (Genesis 1:1) or when God made us human beings (Genesis 1:26-27). God made the angels and Hell for the devil and the fallen angels (even though Hell hath enlarged itself and people foolishly fall into it by dying in their sins – Isaiah 5:14). We can think of many works of God, but what is the singular work of God?  [Read more…]

Professor Brings Class Out To Meet Open-Air Preacher

Ministry Update September 18, 2016

Aaron, Brian and I witnessed at Missouri State University on September 14, 2016. The “free hug” professing Christians took our spot where we normally witness. So we witnessed at Strong Hall (where they have religious classes). We preached a couple of times and when Aaron went the second time, a crowd gathered and one of Aaron’s former professor brought her class out to meet him. They listened to his message and then she introduced her students to Aaron because she wanted them to see that the man is mild mannered compared to the open-air preacher. Yes, Aaron preaches hard, because eternal souls are in the balance. But he is mild mannered when talking about spiritual matters. Aaron stayed there answering questions for over an hour and a half. May God continue working on the lost souls that heard the Gospel.  [Read more…]

Who’s Your Daddy?

Who’s Your Daddy?

Who’s your daddy? This is a serious question. Who’s your father? I’m not talking about your earthly dad. Is your Father the Father God in Heaven or the little g god of this world – the devil? You see, it’s one or the other, but it cannot be both. Satan is the great deceiver. He deceives you into thinking that you are a god (a little g god).  [Read more…]

How Dare You!

Ministry Update September 11, 2016

How dare you say that I need to repent and put my faith in Jesus. I had my back to the young man at MSU because I was recording part of Aaron’s sermon. The young man had earlier told me that we were hurting our own cause. I said why is that and he replied because Jesus always developed a personal relationship with people.  [Read more…]

Rainy Lunch Hour At MSU

MSU Rainy Day Aug 31 2016

Before I talk about the preacher being punched, I want to tell you about witnessing last Wednesday during my lunch hour at MSU. I preached at Strong Hall (something was going on at our usual spot). It rained the whole time, but I enjoyed being there. This is where I started witnessing at MSU several years ago, but we moved to a different spot last year. Several students encouraged me to shut up as they walked by, but I declined to give in to their request. The truth went forth and may God continue to convict and convert lost students.  [Read more…]
