This week we executed a plan that I had been brewing since last year at this time. You may already have read about our "Black Friday" Hot Chocolate Giveaway. On that day, we gave out nearly 500 mugs of hot chocolate or coffee to shoppers braving the local Wal-Mart on the day after Thanksgiving. …
Hot Chocolate Day was a success!
Last Friday, we experienced a great success in ministry. We served people free mugs of hot chocolate and coffee in front of Wal-Mart. It was a great experience. It came to me on Black Friday The whole idea came to me last year on the day after Thanksgiving ("Black Friday" as it has been called) …
sharemytestimony.org

The 28 Day Evangelism Tract
While reading The Purpose Driven Life tonight, I had the thoughts run through my mind that went something like this: If I really want this book to affect me, I need to ponder it through my day. If I want to ponder it, I need to have it condensed into ponderable form. I really appreciate the small …

GOD is Real
GOD is real, and everything (well almost everything) you have heard about him is true! Many may doubt his existence, but you can't doubt his effects. Look around. I mean, honestly, do you believe that the infinite depth of space was produced from nothingness by random fluctuation of quantum …
A New Evangelism Tract
No one came to last night's Bible 101 study that I had scheduled at our house. In light of that, I've determined to not focus on programs that aim to "get people to come" and instead, focus on meeting people one-to-one to key in on evangelism and discipleship. In light of that, I've decided to put …
