What Are You Doing?

Ministry Update September 17, 2017

At MSU on Wednesday a young lady walked up to me and asked, “Are you tired?” “Not yet,” I replied. Then she said, “What are you doing?” “I’m open-air preaching. She then said ok. I don’t believe the young lady had ever witnessed open-air preaching before. She was too polite to ask, but I saw her look around as if to say no one is listening to you. Since she didn’t actually verbalize the question, I didn’t address her concern, but the thought crossed my mind, well you stopped to talk to me.  [Read more…]

Sexy Cowboy

Ministry Update September 10, 2017

Friday night I was handing out Gospel tracts on a street corner in downtown Springfield, MO when a carload of girls drove by. One of the passengers stuck her head out the window and yelled, “Hey sexy cowboy.” Yes, she yelled this at me. No, I’m not sexy. No, I’m not a cowboy. But I am a follower of Jesus Christ who believes we are to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. We are supposed to deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Jesus. When Christians venture outside of their homes and their churches, they will hear strange comments. But we really shouldn’t be surprised when lost people act lost.  [Read more…]

Repent And Be Converted

Repent And Be Converted

Repent And Be Converted

If you have ever heard me sharing the Gospel before then you most likely have heard me say the word repent. A lot of times I say repent and surrender your life to Jesus or repent and believe the Gospel. Or maybe you’ve heard me say repent and trust Jesus or repent and put your faith in Jesus. I say these words because I truly want you to repent and be converted. My desire is to see you saved. I hope to see you one day in Heaven and you can’t make it there without Jesus Christ. You must repent and submit your life to Him.  [Read more…]

Fear God Give Him Glory Worship Him

Fear God Give Him Glory Worship Him

Fear God, give Him glory, worship Him. No, I didn’t randomly pick these words. They are found in Revelation 14:7. Revelation 14:6-7 states: And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people. Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.  [Read more…]

Do You Have A Uterus?

Ministry Update June 18, 2017

“Do you have a uterus?” asked the woman who pulled her SUV into Planned Parenthood’s parking lot. Yes, a woman drove into the parking lot just to ask, do you have a uterus. In other words, if my friends and I can’t have a baby then somehow that negates our right to stand against abortion. Hogwash. Life is precious and life is worth fighting for. Then she repeated “Do you have a uterus?”  [Read more…]

Does It Do Any Good?

Does It Do Any Good?

This last week a friend asked my wife “does it do any good for Dennis to stand and yell at people?” Later in the week a co-worker told me someone asked him the same question about when I witness at MSU. So, it made me think about open-air preaching: Does it do any good?  [Read more…]

Love Not Hate

Love Not Hate

Love not hate. Students I come here and share the Gospel with you every week out of love not hate. I do not hate you. If I hated you, I would not spend my lunch hour hear pleading with you to come to Jesus Christ. If I hated you, I wouldn’t care if you died in your sins and you went on to Hell. But I do not hate you. I lift my voice up so you can hear me from several directions as you are coming and going. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God so my great desire is for you to hear God’s truth, that He will convict you over your sins and that the Lord would grant you eternal life.  [Read more…]

I’m Not Really Up For This Whole Preaching Thing Right Now

Ministry Update April 23, 2017

“Did you guys get one of these tonight?” “What is it?” “It’s a Gospel Tract.” “Do you believe in Jesus?” “Yeah.” “You do? Have you repented and put your trust in Him?” “I’m not really up for this whole preaching thing right now.” Sadly, the young lady that said this, had missed the preaching. Aaron, Joshua, his son, Serenity, Cody and I were just singing hymns to end the rainy night of witnessing downtown. So I really wasn’t preaching to her.  [Read more…]

Vocal Atheists

Ministry Update April 9, 2017

Friday night was Artwalk and there was a good crowd downtown. Kelly, Steven, Serenity, Diana, Elise, Aaron, Joe and I were blessed to have evangelist Larry Craft and his family join us. They nearly doubled the size of our group and we needed all hands-on deck, especially with the vocal atheists that stood in front of us all night.  [Read more…]

Everlasting Gospel

The Everlasting Gospel

The Lord keeps impressing upon me the urgency and necessity of preaching the glorious Gospel. Why? Because Heaven is real and eternal punishment in the lake of fire and brimstone is real. Every single one of us will spend eternity in the presence of God, worshiping Him forever or we will suffer His righteous wrath over our sins for all eternity. It’s one or the other. Which will it be for you?  [Read more…]
