So You Are Your Own god

Joshua and I witnessed downtown Friday night and it was Art Walk, the first Friday of the month. So there were a lot of people downtown that we hadn’t seen before. We walked around and handed out tracts. We talked to one young couple – Pete and Jody. Pete and Joshua are both electricians, so they had a lot in common and had a good discussion. I gave Jody the curved illusion tracts and she loved them. After Joshua and Pete had talked, I asked Jody and Pete what they think happens after you die. Jody sounded like a true believer, based on her response. Pete, on the other hand was quite different. In fact, Joshua told him at one point, “So you are your own god.”

Pete was a very pleasant and likeable young man. That is, until we started talking religion. His whole demeanor changed. He started talking more loudly as he got wound up. The best I can tell, he’s not a Buddhist, but he believes that we keep being reincarnated and just keep coming back forever. Joshua kept trying to reason with him and show Pete that he really can’t have morals without taking them from God. But Pete was having none of that. Pete makes his own rules and he decides what’s right and wrong. He believes it’s what’s inside of us that matters. I couldn’t hardly get a word in edgewise, but at that point I stated that the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, who can know it (Jeremiah 17:9). [Read more…]

Prove God Is Real

Ministry Update March 17, 2019

A friend suggested that we witness downtown Saturday night instead of Friday night. Unfortunately, my friend couldn’t make it, but Brian and I were able to hand out New Testaments and Gospel tracts. We were anticipating large crowds since Kip Moore was performing at the Gillioz Theatre at 8 pm and the St. Patricks’ Day pub crawl was scheduled to start at 9 pm. But the crowd was much smaller than we thought it would be. Even though it was a much slower night than we expected, there were some conversations. The best conversation was with a group of four young people and one of them said, “Prove God is real.” [Read more…]

I Would Have Eaten The Forbidden Fruit

Forbidden Fruit

Forbidden Fruit

Last Friday I was talking to a group of young people and we were discussing why bad things happen. I was relating the story of Adam and Eve. God put them in a perfect world and told them the only thing you can’t do is eat of the fruit of the forbidden tree and of course they did. As I was saying this, one of the young women said, “I would have eaten the forbidden fruit.”  [Read more…]

 Planned Parenthood Was The Quiet Part

Planned Parenthood Was The Quiet Part?

I witnessed at Planned Parenthood on Wednesday July 27, 2016 and the strange thing was Planned Parenthood was the quiet part. A few people drove by and honked – mainly opposed to me being there, but a couple were supportive (you can tell the difference). One person drove by and yelled encouraging words and another not so much. But overall Planned Parenthood was quiet. A few people went in and out and I kept preaching against Planned Parenthood. I continued preaching against murdering little babies in the womb. The people coming and going didn’t say anything including a few workers that were probably going to lunch.  [Read more…]
