We Follow Satan

We Follow Satan
Ministry Update November 25, 2024

Anand, two of his daughters and I handed out tracts last Friday on a cold, quiet night. But the strangest interaction was with a couple that refused tracts. They said no to me and then as they turned the corner, Anand’s daughters tried to hand them tracts too. But they refused them and the man yelled out, “We follow Satan!” So I yelled after him, “Satan can’t save you.” “Yes he can,” the man replied. So I stated, “Only Jesus can save you. Satan will be right there next to you in Hell, but you won’t care about him and he won’t care about you.” By that point, they were too far away to say anything else.

The only real conversation was one that Anand had with a young man named Evan. Anand handed him a a tract and told him that it’s a Gospel tract. Evan said that he was a Christian, so Anand asked him how he came to faith. The young man couldn’t say. So Anand asked him if he’s going to Heaven and Evan said, “I hope I’m good enough.” Anand gently explained to him that the Bible says none of us are good. That’s why we need Jesus – we need the perfect One who bore our punishment to save us. We pray that God will convict and convert Evan.

 Don’t You Have A Job?

I handed out tracts last Wednesday at Missouri State University during the lunch hour. (I had just posted a couple of days earlier on Facebook how there seemed to be a different spirit on campus this year. I wasn’t even open-air preaching this day, just handing out Gospel tracts. All the mockers saved it up for this day). One girl refused a tract and said, “I’m not into cults.” I replied, “That’s a good thing, because I’m not into cults either.” Another girl yelled an emphatic NO! Then toward the end of my time there, a girl walked by and said, “Why are you always here on Wednesdays? Don’t you have a job?” (That one cracked me up). I told her that I do have a job, but I’m worried about her eternal soul, even if she isn’t.

Then the girl from last week that grew up atheist also walked by. I was handing out What Is The Meaning of Life tracts from Living Waters. I directed her to their website (again). Hopefully she will go there since she’s the one wanting to witness to her friends.

May God bless the tracts that were handed out downtown and on the campus. These updates are provided to encourage Christians to share their faith in Jesus with others. It’s easy to hand out a tract and say, “Did you get one of these?”

Is That A Christian Thing?

May 9, 2023 by dennis@seekandsavethelost.com Leave a Comment

Is That A Christian Thing?

I handed out the Why Christianity booklets from Living Waters at MSU last Wednesday at the third witnessing spot. There were only 100 left, but all of them were taken. One student told me that he didn’t need it because he’s a Christian. When asked if he could hand it to someone, he really thought about it, but said, “No, I’m good.” One girl refused the booklet and said that she’s a Buddhist.

When I ran out of the booklets, I switched to the What’s The Meaning Of Life tracts (also from Living Waters). Several students who spoke broken English took the tracts. One girl of Indian descent took one and read it while she waited for her two friends. I didn’t realize they were together until after both of her friends took tracts and walked over to her. One guy said, “Is that a Christian thing?” and when I replied yes, he said he didn’t need it because he’s already a Christian. Then I asked if he could hand it to someone else and he really thought about it, said, “Hey, that’s a great idea!” and took it. May God bless the booklets and tracts that were handed out.

Few Great Conversations

I’m having health issues and may not be able to witness again for a while. But praise God, Joshua and Michael made it out Friday night to witness at Art Walk. I asked for an update and Joshua replied back, “Had a few great conversations. God be the glory. Seeds were planted and we had good fellowship.” I love these brothers in Christ who go out witnessing Friday nights. They are young and bold for the Lord. I thank God for sending them my way.

Homeless Guy Asked For A Bible

Homeless Guy Asked For A Bible

Ministry Update November 1, 2020

The weather was great Friday night. Conner and I both brought messages and Keven joined us later to help hand out Gospel tracts. I don’t remember having any mockers. Conner had a couple of them. It was great having Keven join us. He handed out tracts caddie-corner from Conner and I. While Conner was open-air preaching, a homeless guy came up to me and asked for a Bible. I gladly handed him one. Conner, Keven and I had a great time visiting when we weren’t handing out tracts.

One Bicycle Mocker On A Rainy Day

It wasn’t raining when I drove to Missouri State University on Wednesday and didn’t start raining until I started open-air preaching. The wind was cold and students didn’t want to stop and talk. So I just brought a message that day. About half-way through a student rode by on is bicycle and mouthed off as he went by. I was pleading with students to turn from their sins and turn to Christ. So I just continued pleading with students and said, “Don’t continue mocking God whether you do so verbally out loud like the guy on the bicycle just did or if you are mocking God with your life – by your words and your actions.” Also pleaded with students to not reject such a great salvation. The salvation that is found in Jesus Christ alone.

(These updates are given to encourage Christians to share their faith in Jesus with others. The results are up to God. Salvation is of the Lord. He calls us to share the Gospel with others. Jesus told us to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature – Mark 16:15. Yes, all believers are to share the Gospel. Christian are you being obedient to Christ? Don’t know what to say or do? Buy some Gospel tracts. I recommend Living Waters and Chapel Library. Just walk up to someone offer a tract and say, “Did you get one of these?” By not asking a yes or no question, you have a better chance of someone actually taking one. But whether they accept or reject, salvation is of the Lord. Keep offering tracts, no matter how many rejections you receive. May Jesus Christ our Lord be glorified above all else.)

One Encourager After Another

Woman Saying Amen

One Encourager After Another

Ministry Update February 9, 2020

Friday night witnessing started off really quiet, then I had a couple of mockers in a row. I couldn’t hear the first one. The second one said something and I wasn’t sure I heard him correctly. So I asked him what he said. He replied, “I’m going to Hell.” I responded, “You sound like you are proud of that.” “I am” he said. So I explained that he really doesn’t understand what Hell is really like. He may think people are partying and having a great time there, but they are not. The rich man begged for a drop of water 2,000 years ago because he was in torments. He’s still in torments today. The mocker just got in his car and didn’t say anything else. But after that, I had one encourager after another in about a 10-minute span. [Read more…]

I Was A Christian For Thirteen Years

I Was A Christian For Thirteen Years
Ministry Update December 15, 2019

I’m not superstitious. Last Friday was Friday the thirteenth and there was a full moon and the mockers were out in full force. I don’t blame it on superstition, it’s just sinful men and women acting like sinful human beings in a fallen world. Besides one guy saying, “I was a Christian for thirteen years” the other mockers that stood out while I was open-air preaching was a pickup with a couple of guys in it. They both started mocking from the moment they pulled up to the corner. As the driver pulled away, the passenger stuck his head through the sliding glass opening in the rear window and mocked all the way down the street. [Read more…]

Love And Honor My Wife

Love And Honor My Wife

Ministry Update January 21, 2018

I love and honor my wife. Yes, I am the spiritual leader of our home, but that doesn’t mean that I run roughshod over my godly wife. The apostle Paul said a man is to love his wife as Jesus loved the church (Ephesians 5:25). How did Jesus love the church? He died for us true believers! The reason I’m pointing this out is because my precious wife requests that I don’t do open-air preaching downtown on Friday nights when I’m by myself. (Sometimes my wife comes out with me, but we drove 14 hours back from Michigan on Thursday and she only had four hours sleep. So obviously I didn’t ask her to go downtown with me). Friday night, my ministry partners couldn’t make it, so I was witnessing on my own. Because I love and honor my wife, I didn’t open-air preach. Instead, I handed out Gospel tracts.  [Read more…]

Kelly Blessed Many Times

Kelly Blessed Many Times
Ministry Update December 17, 2017

Friday night it was great having Kelly join me witnessing in downtown in Springfield, MO. But Kelly was the one who received “many blessings.” Yes, Kelly was blessed many times. What I mean by that is what Jesus said in Matthew 5:11 that you are blessed when people insult and persecute you falsely for His sake. Well, Kelly was blessed many times Friday night.  [Read more…]

Pro-Choice or Pro-Life?

November 12, 2011 by dennis@seekandsavethelost.com Leave a Comment

I was pro-life even before I became a Christian. I’ve had many “discussions over the years with people about pro-life versus pro-choice. I always viewed it as we just had different opinions. Even though I was against abortion, it really didn’t bother me if someone was for abortion. I thought of it as something we just disagreed about. Are you pro-choice or pro-life? [Read more…]
