Results of the Work – 2/1/19

Hey brothers and sisters in Christ,

I hope your weekend has been blessed so far. I love seeing the ice that is the bane of my driveway all melt off. No one prayed with me to receive Jesus on Friday but I went through the Gospel with 7 people. It was a bit sad, as a few students were open and close. One had lost his faith. Jack (big dude with a beard, easy going) having been raised Pentecostal was now uncertain of what to believe, though he knew the Gospel. He took a copy of the Student edition of The Case for Christ from me and I’ll pray he reads it.  Micky, a sandy haired, bearded guy with shortish shaggy hair and a nose ring through his septum was thoughtful and thanked me saying I was a good speaker. ‘Not good enough’ I’d be tempted to think, but God is able. He seemed open to thinking about a life in Christ. Nick had stick-straight blonde shaggy hair over his ears, a thin beard over his cheeks and long 2 inches strands down from his chin. His mustache came straight out from his lip in quarter inch bristles, looked like a Viking, wearing all black. He wanted to own a vineyard.  A bit on the humorless side, but said “maybe” when I asked him if he’d like to trust in Christ, though he believed Jesus was God and had died for his sins and rose from the dead. Thought he was sure he’d go to Heaven before we talked and went to a Lutheran church and school as a kid. He seemed like he just might be too reserved to pray with me, so I was hopeful in leaving him. Stephanie, a pretty, brown hair girl, looked Latina and had long hair pulled back behind her head and perfect drawn on eyebrows. Her dad was Mormon (so I explained several things that made the book of Mormon historically impossible) and her mom was Catholic. She was caught between, in being noncommittal to either, but very attentive to the Gospel. I gave her a Rose publication hand out on why you can trust the Bible. I encouraged a few Christians in their faith as well.

So thanks for your prayers for the ministry and for evangelism on Friday I got a few good seeds planted I hope.

In Him,

Bob
