Mocking To Not Mocking Back To Mocking

Ministry Update November 22, 2020

While I was open-air preaching Friday night, a guy drove by and yelled before he pulled into the parking lot across from Keven and I. So I told the young man that he wasn’t mocking me, but that he was actually mocking God and worse yet, he was storing up more wrath against the day of wrath (Romans 2:5). The driver stopped at the exit and said that he wasn’t mocking me, that he actually supports what I’m doing. So I apologized to him. Immediately, he pulled out and said the f-word and a string of other cusswords as he drove away. So the guy went from mocking to not mocking back to mocking again. [Read more…]

Non-Christians Take New Testaments

This Last Week Was About Bibles

Ministry Update November 8, 2020

Yes, I brought messages at Missouri State University on Wednesday as well as downtown Friday night. At MSU, I chuckled when two girls walked in front of me and one looked over and said, “Yak, yak, yak” and then went back to talking to her friend. I couldn’t understand another mocker at the university. Downtown, a young man stopped and recorded while I was reading John Chapter 3. He walked by and said “God bless.” Another young man stood across the street and listened to part of the message. But the real story was Bibles. Yes, this last week was about Bibles. I thank God for the students that took New Testaments on Wednesday and I thank God for the people who took them downtown. [Read more…]

Didn’t Preach

Homeless Guy Reading A New Testament

Didn’t Preach

Ministry Update August 9, 2020

I didn’t preach on Friday night even though I had prepared a message. My heart just wasn’t right with God and with others. I would have been a hypocrite if I had open-air preached, so instead, I handed out New Testaments. The first lady I handed one to in the parking lot took one and the second person looked homeless, but he gladly took one too. A few minutes later he could be seen reading the New Testament. A couple I know told me they already had Bibles and other people said the same thing. One gentleman thanked me for handing out Bibles.

Other people took them throughout the night while I walked around downtown. One guy refused one, but the woman that was with him took one. (I’m always glad when this happens because many times when the first person says no, the other people with them also say no. I guess it’s just human nature). May God bless the New Testaments and may He prompt people to read them and may the Lord save lost souls.

You Don’t Have A Uterus
Ministry Update March 1, 2020

While open-air preaching against abortion in downtown Springfield, Missouri Friday night, a woman walking with two guys across the street from me shouted, “You don’t have a uterus.” If I had been thinking quicker, I should have replied, “How do you know I don’t identify as a woman?” But instead, I told her that you don’t need a uterus to know that killing a baby in the womb is wrong.

Usual Mockers And Wicked Mockers

November 3, 2019 by dennis@seekandsavethelost.com Leave a Comment

Usual Mockers and Wicked Mockers

Ministry Update November 3, 2019

There were a lot of people downtown Friday night. The country singer Frank Foster had a concert at the Gillioz Theatre and it was also Art Walk. I handed out New Testaments and brought a message. Lifting up Jesus in the open-air typically draws mockers. In fact, you just pretty well expect to have some mockers. But this Friday night, there were the usual mockers and wicked mockers.

Thumbs Down Woman

Thumbs Down Man

Couple Flipping Me Off

Several mockers were just the usual type of mockers. In fact, I can’t really recall anything significant that any of them said. They just yelled or made noises as they passed by. The wicked mockers started off just giving a thumbs-down. The woman did so first, then the man that was with her followed suit. Next, they flipped me off. Then they moved on to making sexually suggestive gestures. I just kept pleading with people to repent and trust Jesus and this couple just kept ramping it up until they reached their car and drove off.

Highlight Of The Night

But the highlight of the night was Nicholas. He walked up to me when I was first handing out New Testaments and asked if I was part of the “Go Team?” I told him no and that I didn’t know what the Go Team was. He then told me that they are part of Calvary Chapel. Then I told him, “Yes, I now know who you are talking about. They hand out water downtown and get into Gospel conversations with people”.

I hadn’t seen them this Friday night, so I suggested that he walk to the square and see if his friends are there. I told him that they typically pass by me when they come out and they usually walk toward the square. Later on while I was open-air preaching, Nicholas came back by and asked if he could witness with me. I told him sure thing.

Nicholas Boldly Sharing The Gospel

So this bold brother started asking people as they walked by if they had a Bible. Many said, yes, so then he asked them if they read the Bible. Not only that, he asked them if they listen to the Bible. More than once, he gave the good person test. About the time I was finishing up my message, his friends showed up, so he joined them, heading off toward the square. But it was quite encouraging to meet such a bold brother in Christ who was out sharing the Gospel.

Student Says, “I Call God The Universe”

I Call God The Universe

It really wasn’t raining on Wednesday at MSU, but it was misting and the wind was cold. It was 38 degrees and felt colder. Because of the cold weather, I didn’t expect much interaction and didn’t get much. One student walked by and said, “I call God the Universe”. It’s unfortunate the young man missed the first part of the message because I addressed how some people worship the created rather than the Creator. I just shared with him that his opinion isn’t important.

What’s important is what the Bible says and the Bible tells us that God made us to glorify Him, not the created, not the universe. Psalm 19:1 says: The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. It’s young people like the young man that worships the universe that compels me to share the Gospel at MSU and other places. God call all people everywhere to repent (Acts 17:30-31). We are to repent and trust the one true Savior – Jesus Christ the Lord.

Polite Mocker “Are You Going To Answer My Question?”

Are You Going To Answer My Question?

Then the polite mocker walked by and asked, “Did you ever answer my question?” “Are you going to answer my question?” Then he ended with “I guess you aren’t going to answer my question.” He had one thing correct, I wasn’t going to answer him and I didn’t. The polite mocker didn’t ask his question this week, but I assume he was referring to the question he asked last week which was, “You never learn do you?” Maybe I do learn after all. I have learned that it is futile to argue with this guy whose heart is so hardened. I pray that God will save him, but I see no reason to continue casting pearls before swine (Mathew 7:6) when it comes to this particular mocker.

Not A Sheep Of Society

Not A Sheep Of Society

Ministry Update October 13, 2019

“Are you a follower of Jesus? Do you hear His voice? Jesus said My Sheep hear My voice? Are you one of His sheep?” I asked these questions at Missouri State University on Wednesday. A young lady answered, “Yes, I’m not a sheep of society.” I said Amen to her being a follower of Jesus, but told her that I didn’t want her to be a sheep of society. I’m pleading for students to be sheep of Jesus. Again, Jesus said that His sheep hear His voice. I thought the student’s response was kind of strange, but that’s what she said. [Read more…]

Only Two Conversations

Only Two Conversations

Ministry Update September 1, 2019

Conner and I had only two conversations while witnessing downtown Friday night, but they basically lasted the whole time we were there. We started off handing out New Testaments and Gospel tracts. Right off the bat I tried to hand New Testaments to Ryan and Renee. He laughed and told me that he had a ton of these at home. So I said, “Do you read them?” He replied that he did and then he asked where we go to church. I told him I go to Crossway Baptist Church and Conner goes to Hope Baptist Church. Then Ryan told me that he “home” churches and that they are Mormons. [Read more…]

Sweet Christian Fellowship

Sweet Christian Fellowship

Ministry Update August 18, 2019

Friday night the Springfield Opera celebrated their 40-year gala at the Gillioz Theatre. I’m sure they had a sweet time at the gala. Ben and I had sweet Christian fellowship outside. While I was bringing a message, Ben rode up on his bicycle. He’s the same guy that recently prayed for me when I had a rough day and couldn’t even open-air preach that night. But this time I was talking about God being angry with the wicked forever and after the message, Ben and I had a great brotherly discussion. It was a sweet time of fellowship. [Read more…]

Sorry We Don’t Do Abortions Here

Ministry Update July 28, 2019

Many times it’s quiet when my wife and I witness at Planned Parenthood. We go there, I open-air preach and we leave. Sometimes there’s zero interaction. But that was not the case this last Wednesday. I had three admonishers and one woman put a curse on me. I joked with my wife that we got our money’s worth that day. People didn’t like that I was lifting up Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. They also didn’t like that I was preaching against abortion. [Read more…]

Brady Open-Air Preaching

Labor Of Love

Ministry Update July 21, 2019

My wife and I were on vacation this week, but on Saturday July 13, 2019, I had the privilege of witnessing with Brady, his wife Trish, Shane, Gerald, his wife and son and a young lady that was with their group. We did street evangelism at Bricktown in Oklahoma City and it was a real labor of love. It was a joy and honor to labor for the Lord with these evangelists in Oklahoma City. [Read more…]
