Results of the Work – 4/16/2013

Hey Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

Getting a bit-o sun by you I hope. It sprinkled here and then came out, and our cat is sucking it in in the doorway.  I had a good day today by the end of it.  I had discussions on Bombings, of course, and racism, religion and war all over.  Near 3 PM I was about ready to crash and the halls had emptied out, but then I came across Tessa sitting in the second floor hallway (waiting on her bf Richard, it turned out).  Tessa had very light brown, nearly blonde, long hair, pretty, smart.  She had a hooded sweatshirt on and the baggy print pants that look like PJ’s.  We talked for 20 minutes or so.  She thought of herself as “artsy” and she was a really nice kid.  Her parents had divorced and she went to what she described as a “Pentecostal church my aunt and uncle owned,” as a kid.  Then family issues ended that period.  For a while they went to Calvary over on rt. 59.  She did not go to church at present.  Asking her how God took away her sins and prompting her with something Jesus did, she didn’t have an answer.  So I explained the Gospel to her and it was novel.  At the end she said she wanted to have God live inside her and to be forgiven.  I showed her how she could pray to have that and she did.  I explained the Christian life to her, living by the Holy Spirit and offered her a book.  She wanted to read about science so I gave her The Case for a Creator to read and a Bible study on the Deity of Christ.  Her boyfriend walked up and I got his name and told them both I would pray for them.  I told her I would send her some info on epigenetics and got her email to send her stuff.

So that was a great way to end the day.  I talked to a Muslim friend and gave him a Bible today, so i hope he’ll be tempted to read it beyond the part I showed him.

Thanks for your prayers for the ministry today and for evangelism if you got a chance.  God blessed.

In Him,
