We had another awesome time on the streets of Elkhart, Indiana tonight. Pastor Lance, Anthony LeBlanc, Steve Ignowski and I were busy ministering the WORD all night. Last week it was Pastor Brandon from RAVEN SouthWest and I and it was busy then too!! So many people profess to be a "CHRISTIAN" and then go into the bar. I started asking them if they were a "Christian" and when they would say yes I would ask them if there was a prayer meeting going on in there tonight because there sure was alot of "CHRISTIANS" going in there. All jokes aside, people just don't get it that the word "CHRISTIAN" means to be "CHRIST-LIKE" or a follower of "CHRIST". Conviction fell on many as we ministered GOD'S WORD. There was a brother wearing a shirt that had a big cross on it. The first time I saw him I yelled out "HEY PREACHA" and he just looked at me. The next time he walked by and said "don't say that man" and I said "brother, I just figured that anyone wearing a cross that big had to be a preacher. (I had seen Pastor Troy use that before) The next time I yelled out to him I could tell that he was getting irritated with me. This continued until he came by me again and said "I wish you would quit saying that because I know I am not living the life that I know to live. I am not living for Jesus as I have in the past". He told me that everytime I called out to him he was feeling conviction. I told him that he needed to get back to living his life for JESUS.
When I got there tonight Anthony was working with Curtis (one of our regulars) on his guitar.Anthony the Bald-Headed Jesus Freak's guitar.Anthony ministers to a guy that just came out of the bar.Pastor Lance joins Anthony witnessing to the same man.Anthony plays his guitar and ministers to the guy.
Brother Steve Ignowski hits another guy with the WORD after he comes out of the bar.
Pastor Lance ministered to Brother Tim Brown (a Christian rapper) who needed a little adjustment here and there on his preaching. Pastor Lance bought one of his CD's. This brother could be awesome on the streets if he gets some other things in order in his life.Some may call that a trash can but tonight it was my pulpit. The BIBLE will catch many people's attention immediately putting conviction on them. We ministered to many but two guys that really stick out that Pastor Lance & I ministered to was Charles (Tre) and his brother Marcus. We beleive that they will start joining us for outreaches.
Thank you JESUS for another opportunity to be used by you to minister YOUR WORD!!!
