Jesus Wants You To Wear A Mask

Jesus Wants You To Wear A Mask
Ministry Update August 23, 2020

It was great being back on campus at Missouri State University to witness on Wednesday during the lunch hour. I was admonished by two people because I wasn’t wearing a mask while open-air preaching. Guess what? Both of them, the student and the older man purposefully walked in front of me to admonish me for not wearing a mask. The student walked in front of me to whine “Can you put a mask on?” Then a few minutes later the older man walked close by and said, “Jesus wants you to wear a mask?” Well I’m sorry, but I don’t find that in the Bible. I quote the precious Bible while I’m open-air preaching, but Jesus wants you to wear a mask is not in there. [Read more…]

Great Is The Lord And Greatly To Be Praised

Great Is The Lord And Greatly To Be Praised

Have you ever notice how people throw around the word great? This team is the greatest of all time. Many people consider Michael Jordan one of the greatest basketball players of all time. In 2015, Adrian Peters called himself the Michael Jordan of football. Of course, Muhammad Ali used to call himself the greatest boxer of all time. Many people throw around the word great. But there is truly one great and that is the Lord. Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised.  [Read more…]

Don’t Touch Me

“Don’t touch me!” the drunk screamed at me Friday night. The ironic part was that he mumbled that he should knock me off the box right before he got to me and then he did try to knock me off. As I was falling backwards I put my forearm out to keep him from hitting me. The drunk then went ballistic. First cussing me out and then he got right in Aaron’s face, yelling and cussing him out. Then Justin tried to talk to the guy, but he just yelled and cussed him out too.  [Read more…]

Flag Burning, Transgender, Catholic, Atheist and Satanist

It was an honor to witness on Veteran’s Day at MU in Columbia, MO with several brothers in Christ from Kirksville and Rolla, MO as well as some from Illinois. We had a great day of witnessing on campus, even though some students were still protesting Trump’s victory by burning an American Flag. This happened before I got there, but my friends told me about it and the local news covered it too.

It was very sad, especially on Veteran’s Day. I’m grateful for every man and woman currently serving our country and for all who have served in the past. Because of your sacrifice, we still enjoy our freedom in our nation, so thank you for serving!  [Read more…]

Preaching At People

Last Wednesday a young man came up to me while I was reading about Paul’s conversion in Acts 9 and he opened his Bible and read to me: And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward (Matthew 6:5).  [Read more…]

Why Do We Do This?

Why Do We Do This?

Why do we do this? Why do we come out here week after week and share the Gospel? Why do we do this when we know we are going to be verbally attacked or every now and then even physically attacked? Why do we do this when we know we are more than likely to encounter mockers and scoffers? Why do we do this?  [Read more…]

Who Is The Real Psycho?

Brian and I were joined by Jeri witnessing at Planned Parenthood. It was great having a new person join us. Brian brought a passionate message first and then Jeri finished up by pleaded with the workers to think about what they are doing. She pleaded with them to repent and trust Jesus.  Sandwiched in between my friends I brought a message from Amos about the abomination of worshiping Molech (Amos 5;27) and how abortion is the modern day version of that horrendous practice of child sacrifice.  [Read more…]

Ministry Update November 23, 2015

On Wednesday November 18, 2015 I was at MSU at the usual spot and a young man came up to me and wanted to know if open-air preaching (or as he called it – yelling at people) was really the best way to reach people. I was just about finished with my message when he interrupted me. I told him to hang on a minute that I was about finished. But that didn’t make this professing Christian happy and frankly I get tired of the same old arguments.  [Read more…]

Ministry Update October 4, 2105

This last week was a busy week. In fact, I was so busy at work on Monday that I didn’t get to join Aaron and several others from his church at Missouri State University. They joined some other Christians that day and they handed out around 40 to 50 pizzas to students, sang hymns, preached the Gospel and handed out tracts. Praise God!  [Read more…]

Shot of Whiskey

I quit drinking 14 years ago, even though I wasn’t saved at the time. My oldest daughter was 12 years old back then and I knew that I didn’t want her to drink. So I thought how can I tell her not to drink when I always have alcohol around the house? So I quit drinking because I didn’t want to be bad influence on my children. [Read more…]
