SUMMARY:Witnessing Workshop & Winter Jam Gospel Outreach
DESCRIPTION:Jesus’ final words before His ascension were not given to professionals only\, but to ordinary believers who had been transformed by extraordinary grace: “You will be My witnesses” (Acts 1:8). \nThat calling still stands today. In a world filled with noise\, opinions\, and uncertainty\, the simple\, powerful message of who Jesus is and what He has done remains the only true hope. That’s why we’re inviting you to take part in two connected opportunities: a Witnessing Workshop and a Gospel Outreach at the Winter Jam concert\, where thousands will be waiting in long lines—open moments God often uses to open hearts. \nBefore we go out\, we want to be built up. \nThe Witnessing Workshop will be at Wildwood Chapel about an hour north of Columbus\, OH and is designed to center our hearts and minds on the gospel itself—Christ crucified for sinners and risen in victory. This is not about pressure\, gimmicks\, or winning arguments. It’s about understanding the message we carry and learning how to share it with clarity\, humility\, and love. \nTogether\, we’ll focus on: \n\nThe person and finished work of Jesus Christ\nThe biblical gospel of grace alone through faith alone\nHow to start natural gospel conversations\nHow to listen well and speak truth with compassion\nHow to trust the Holy Spirit with the results\n\nWhether you feel confident in evangelism or hesitant and unsure\, this workshop is for you. We want you to leave encouraged\, equipped\, and reminded that God delights to use weak vessels to display His strength. \nThen comes the beautiful next step: going out together. \nWinter Jam concerts draw massive crowds\, and with them come long lines—lines filled with people standing\, waiting\, and often willing to talk. These moments are not interruptions; they are divine appointments. While many are coming for music\, we will be there to lovingly point people to the Savior the songs proclaim. \nAs we engage people in line at the Schottenstein Center on the Ohio State University campus\, we’ll share the good news that: \n\nGod is holy and righteous\nWe are sinners in need of mercy\nJesus lived the perfect life we could not live\nJesus died the death we deserved\nJesus rose again\, offering forgiveness and eternal life to all who repent and believe\n\nWe won’t rely on our eloquence. We’ll rely on the gospel\, which is “the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16). \nEvery line holds eternal souls. Every conversation matters. And every believer has been entrusted with the message of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:18–20). \nThis outreach isn’t about counting conversations or patting ourselves on the back. It’s about obedience\, love for the lost\, and faithfulness to Christ. Some may hear and walk away. Others may hear and believe. All outcomes belong to the Lord. \nCome be equipped. \nCome be encouraged. \nCome be sent. \nJoin us for the Witnessing Workshop\, and then stand shoulder-to-shoulder with fellow believers as we share Jesus with people waiting in Winter Jam lines—trusting God to do what only He can do. \n“How will they hear without someone preaching?” (Romans 10:14) \nLet’s go together. For His glory! \n10am: How to Get on Fire\n11am: Angles of the Cross\n12pm: Lunch provided\n12:30pm: The Gospel Roadmap (Part 1)\n1:30pm: The Gospel Roadmap (Part 2)\n2:45pm: Leave the Church for Winter Jam\n4:00pm: Share the Gospel at Winter Jam\n5:30pm: Conclude Gospel Outreach

SUMMARY:Taking the Gospel to the Marketplace
DESCRIPTION:We’re grateful for the opportunity to take the gospel into the heart Cincinnati at Peddler’s Flea Market. This upcoming evangelism outreach is more than an event—it is an act of obedience to Christ and a joyful opportunity to make His name known. \nJesus told His followers\, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation” (Mark 16:15). The marketplace has always been one of the most natural places for gospel conversations. It’s where people gather\, talk\, browse\, and connect—and it’s exactly the kind of setting where the light of Christ can shine brightly. \nAt this outreach\, we’ll be giving away free Bibles\, Christian DVDs\, and gospel-centered books. These resources are not the message themselves\, but they point people to the true message—the good news that salvation is found in Jesus Christ alone. As Romans 10:17 reminds us\, “Faith comes from hearing\, and hearing through the word of Christ.” Our prayer is that God will use His Word to awaken hearts long after the flea market closes for the day. \nThis is an exciting time for believers to step out in faith and lovingly share the gospel. We are not called to argue or pressure\, but to faithfully proclaim Christ with gentleness and respect (1 Peter 3:15). Some conversations may be brief\, others longer—but every encounter matters. We trust that God is already at work\, preparing hearts before we ever arrive. \nScripture tells us that unbelief is ultimately a spiritual issue. The apostle Paul wrote that “the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers” (2 Corinthians 4:4). That is why prayer is essential. We ask you to join us in praying that God would open blind eyes\, soften hard hearts\, and grant repentance and faith. Only the Holy Spirit can bring conviction and new life (John 16:8; John 6:44). \nWe also invite Christians to come alongside us—not merely as volunteers\, but as worshipers. Evangelism is not a program; it is an overflow of gratitude for what Christ has done. Paul wrote\, “The love of Christ controls us” (2 Corinthians 5:14). When we remember the mercy we’ve received\, sharing the gospel becomes a joy rather than a burden. Our confidence is not in methods\, materials\, or numbers—it is in the power of the gospel itself\, “for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16). \nThank you for praying\, supporting\, and standing with us as we take the good news of Jesus Christ to Peddler’s Flea Market. May God use this outreach to bring eternal fruit\, and may many come to know the Savior who gave His life so that sinners might live. \n \n

SUMMARY:Come Get Equipped for Gospel Conversations Before Winter Jam
DESCRIPTION:One of the most overlooked mission fields is the one we often stand in without realizing it—a line. \nAt events like Winter Jam\, where most tickets are purchased at the door\, long lines naturally form. What might feel like wasted time is actually redeemed time. God\, in His providence\, gathers people together and slows them down—creating the perfect environment for Gospel-focused conversation. A long line creates something rare in today’s rushed world: unhurried conversation. There’s time to ask thoughtful questions\, to listen carefully\, and to lovingly point people to Jesus—not with pressure\, but with compassion and clarity. \nAt first glance\, it’s easy to assume that everyone in line at a Christian concert is already a believer. But experience tells a different story. You’ll meet people who grew up in church but have never clearly understood the gospel. Scripture reminds us that proximity does not equal conversion. “Not everyone who says to me\, ‘Lord\, Lord\,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 7:21) You’ll meet friends or family members who are simply tagging along\, curious but unconvinced. And yes\, you’ll meet sincere followers of Christ who love the Lord—but may desperately need encouragement\, reminder\, or renewal. \nAnd when you do meet a fellow believer\, what greater joy is there than to remind one another of the One we’ve centered our lives upon? Sometimes the most powerful moment of the day isn’t leading someone from death to life—but strengthening a weary saint\, stirring gospel boldness\, or reigniting joy in Christ. The gospel is good news not only for the lost\, but for the found. It humbles us\, anchors us\, and reminds us why we live the way we do. \nStanding in line may seem ordinary\, but God delights in using ordinary moments for eternal purposes. The question is not whether opportunities are present—but whether we are awake to them. We’ll be holding a Witnessing Workshop to equip you to share the gospel with the folks at Winter Jam. Come join us at Torch Community Church! \n10a-11a How to get on Fire for Witnessing\n11-12p Angles of the Cross\n12-12:30p Complimentary Lunch\n12:30-1:30p Gospel Roadmap part 1\n1:30p-2:30p Gospel Roadmap part 2\n3p Arrive at Winter Jam\n5p Gospel Outreach complete\, students meet up with the youth pastor at Winter Jam

SUMMARY:Louisville\, KY Winter Jam
DESCRIPTION:Winter Jam—the largest annual Christian music tour—offers a remarkable opportunity to proclaim the greatest news the world has ever heard: the gospel of Jesus Christ. \nBecause many tickets are purchased at the door\, long lines naturally form—turning waiting time into God-appointed moments. These unhurried conversations open doors to speak about eternal things\, to ask meaningful questions\, and to lovingly point people to Christ. \nWhile Winter Jam is a Christian event\, not everyone in line is a true follower of Jesus. Some may be churchgoers who have never understood the gospel clearly; others may be friends or family members who are simply tagging along. And even when we meet fellow believers\, what greater joy is there than to remind one another of the Savior who has redeemed us? \nScripture calls us: \n\n“How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in Him of whom they have never heard?” (Romans 10:14) \n\nAnd again: \n\n“We are ambassadors for Christ\, God making His appeal through us.” (2 Corinthians 5:20) \n\nThis outreach is not about pressure or performance—it’s about faithful presence\, gentle conversation\, and bold love for the souls Christ died to save: \n\n“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” (Luke 19:10) \n\nWhether you are seasoned in evangelism or stepping out in obedience for the first time\, you are welcome. We go prayerfully\, relying not on ourselves\, but on the power of the gospel: \n\n“For I am not ashamed of the gospel\, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes.”(Romans 1:16) \n\nCome join us as we lift up Christ\, trust the Holy Spirit\, and sow gospel seeds for God’s glory alone.

SUMMARY:Going to REACH Because Christ Is Worth Proclaiming
DESCRIPTION:On March 9 and 10\, I’ll be attending the REACH Evangelism & Missions Conference\, and I’d love for you to come with me. \nREACH exists to refocus our hearts on what matters most:Jesus Christ.His gospel.His mission. \nJesus said\, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.” (Matthew 28:19) That call is clear. Yet it’s easy for us to grow comfortable or unsure of how to share our faith in a world that often resists truth. REACH is designed to help believers be grounded in Christ and equipped to live on mission with confidence and compassion. \nPaul wrote\, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel\, for it is the power of God for salvation.” This gathering is about lifting high the name of Jesus and being reminded that the gospel still saves. \nIf your heart longs to see the lost reached…If you desire greater boldness in sharing Christ\,\,\,If you need encouragement to keep going\,\,\, \nthen come with me to this special 2-day conference in Lousiville. Let’s gather around God’s Word\, worship together\, and be sent out ready to proclaim Christ wherever He has placed us. “The harvest is plentiful\, but the laborers are few.” (Luke 10:2) May we be among those who go into the world and preach the gospel!

SUMMARY:Gospel Outreach at the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Cincinnati
DESCRIPTION:This March\, we’re stepping into one of the most open and effective venues for evangelism — a parade. The Cincinnati St. Patrick’s Day Parade draws thousands into the streets\, many from Catholic backgrounds who love St. Patrick but may not yet know the biblical gospel he preached. \nParades are one of the easiest places to share the gospel. People are relaxed\, approachable\, and already gathered. A simple smile\, a friendly greeting\, and a gospel tract can open doors the Lord uses mightily (Colossians 4:5–6). \nIf you’re new to handing out tracts or just want encouragement\, there’s a helpful segment from Way of the Master on giving out gospel tracts at a parade with wisdom and love. It’s a great reminder that boldness and kindness go hand in hand (2 Timothy 1:7). \n \nWhat We’ll Do\n\nMeet on March 14th at 11:00 AM to pray and review logistics\nWalk the parade route together handing out gospel tracts and ge\nWalk the parade route together handing out gospel tracts and engage in Christ-centered gospel conversations\nThe parade floats begin moving at 12:00 PM. When the floats catch up to us we’ll stop distribution.\n\nWe’ll be using the Saint Patrick gospel tract from Tomorrow’s Forefathers\, which clearly explains the true gospel Patrick proclaimed — salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone (Ephesians 2:8–9). \nYou don’t need to be an experienced evangelist. You just need a willing heart. Jesus said\, “Lift up your eyes\, and see that the fields are white for harvest” (John 4:35). Downtown Cincinnati will be full — and the harvest will be ready. \nCome pray. Come share the good news. If you have questions or want to join us\, just reach out. \nWhere to Park & Meet\nParking: Longworth Hall Parking Lot\nW Pete Rose Way\, Cincinnati\, OH 45202\nPrayer Meetup: Corner of W Mehring St & Rose St (red star location) at 11:00 AM

SUMMARY:Witnessing Workshop Weekend: Equipping the Saints to Proclaim Christ!
DESCRIPTION:We live in a moment of tremendous gospel opportunity—and urgent gospel need. Jesus told His disciples\, “The harvest is plentiful\, but the laborers are few” (Matthew 9:37). Our prayer is that this Witnessing Workshop Weekend will raise up faithful laborers who love Christ deeply and are equipped to share Him clearly. \nFrom March 20–22\, Heritage Bible Church in Panama City\, Florida\, will host a free evangelism training conference designed to equip the saints to glorify God by evangelizing the lost. This weekend is not about methods for their own sake\, but about recovering biblical confidence in the power of the gospel and learning how to faithfully proclaim Christ in everyday conversations. \nScripture reminds us that “faith comes from hearing\, and hearing through the word of Christ” (Romans 10:17). Our desire is to help believers speak that Word with clarity\, compassion\, and conviction—trusting God alone for the results. Evangelism is not reserved for pastors or missionaries. Christ calls every believer to be His witness (Acts 1:8). Yet many Christians struggle with fear\, uncertainty\, or simply not knowing where to begin. \nThis weekend is designed to: \n\nStrengthen your confidence in the gospel\nGround your witness in Scripture\nProvide practical\, biblical tools for real conversations\n\nAs Paul wrote\, “We are ambassadors for Christ\, God making His appeal through us” (2 Corinthians 5:20). This workshop exists to help believers faithfully represent their King. \nConference Schedule\nFriday Evening – March 20\n6:30–7:30 PM  How to Get on Fire for Witnessing \nA call to rekindle gospel urgency\, fueled by love for Christ and compassion for the lost (2 Corinthians 5:14). \n7:45–8:45 PM  How to Use Creation Apologetics in Witnessing \nLearning how God’s creation testifies to His glory and provides a powerful starting point for gospel conversations (Psalm 19:1; Romans 1:20). \n\nSaturday – March 21\n9:00–10:15 AM  Gospel Roadmap – Part 1 \n10:30–11:45 AM  Gospel Roadmap – Part 2 \nA clear\, biblical framework for moving conversations toward Christ with confidence and faithfulness. \n12:00–12:30 PM  Lunch Provided by church \n12:30–2:00 PM  Angles of the Cross (with Role Playing) \nExploring the depth\, beauty\, and necessity of Christ’s atoning work from Scripture (Isaiah 53; 2 Corinthians 5:21). \n2:00–5:00 PM  Local Gospel Outreach/Practicum – optional \nAn opportunity to put training into practice as we lovingly share Christ in the community. \n5:00 PM  Debrief\, Q&A\, and snacks \n\nSunday – March 22\n9:15 AM – Sunday School: The Utter Sinfulness of Sin \nA sobering and biblical look at the seriousness of sin and our desperate need for a Savior (Romans 3:23; Isaiah 64:6). \n10:30–11:45 AM – Church service: Justification by Faith \nRejoicing in the heart of the gospel—that sinners are declared righteous by grace alone\, through faith alone\, in Christ alone (Romans 4:5; Ephesians 2:8–9). \n12:00–1:00 PM  Church Lunch: Sandwiches (provided) or BYO \n1:00–1:30 PM  Role Playing \nPractice sharing the gospel with unbelievers through role playing. \n1:30–4:30pm:  Gospel Outreach/Practicum at beach – optional \nTaking the good news of Jesus Christ into a public setting with prayerful dependence on God. \n5:00 PM  Debrief\, Q&A\, Fellowship\, Prayer\, and Snacks \nA Call to Pray and Participate\nThis conference is completely free\, but it is not casual. We are asking God to do eternal work. Scripture reminds us that salvation belongs to the Lord (Psalm 3:8)\, and only He can open hearts (Acts 16:14). That is why prayer must undergird everything we do. \nPlease pray: \n\nThat believers would be emboldened to speak the truth in love\nThat unbelievers would have open eyes and receptive hearts\nThat Christ would be honored in every conversation\n\nEvangelism is not about our ability—it is about God’s power. “The gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16).  We invite you to join us for this Witnessing Workshop Weekend as we seek to glorify God\, obey Christ\, and lovingly proclaim the gospel to a world in need.

SUMMARY:Taking the Gospel to the Streets: Cincinnati Reds Opening Day Parade Outreach
DESCRIPTION:For many years\, I’ve had a desire to share the gospel at the Cincinnati Reds Opening Day Parade\, but scheduling never quite allowed it to happen. This year\, by God’s grace\, it’s finally on the calendar and we couldn’t be more excited. The opening day parade is a celebration that draws thousands of people into the streets. Families\, friends\, coworkers\, and visitors gather shoulder to shoulder\, ready to enjoy a tradition they love. And in the midst of that crowd stands an open door for the gospel. Jesus said\, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). Sometimes that command leads us across oceans—but sometimes it simply leads us into the streets of our own city. \nParades are one of the easiest venues for gospel outreach. People are already gathered\, relaxed\, and open to interaction. Conversations happen naturally. Smiles are exchanged freely. There is no need for a microphone or platform—just willing hearts and faithful voices. In fact\, parade outreach is so simple that even children can participate. A friendly greeting\, handing out gospel tracts\, or telling a guest that Jesus loves them can all point people toward Christ. When children take part in gospel outreach\, it beautifully reminds us that evangelism is not about skill or sophistication—it is about obedience and love. \nScripture tells us that the gospel itself is powerful: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel\, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16). We do not rely on clever methods or persuasive speech. We rely on God’s Word and the work of the Holy Spirit. As believers\, we know that unbelief is ultimately spiritual. “The god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers” (2 Corinthians 4:4). That is why prayer is essential. We ask you to pray that God would open hearts\, remove spiritual blindness\, and draw people to Christ (John 6:44). We pray that His Word would not return void\, but accomplish all that He intends (Isaiah 55:11). \nThis outreach is not about numbers or visible results. It is about faithfulness. Paul reminds us\, “I planted\, Apollos watered\, but God gave the growth” (1 Corinthians 3:6). Our responsibility is to sow the seed; God is responsible for the harvest. We are grateful for the opportunity to take the gospel into a joyful\, public space and proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ. Whether through a Christ-centered conversation or a a handed-out gospel tract\, our prayer is that many will encounter the truth that Christ died for sinners\, rose again\, and offers forgiveness and eternal life to all who repent and believe (1 Corinthians 15:3–4). \nPlease join us in praying for this outreach—and consider coming alongside us as we take the gospel to the streets of Cincinnati. May Christ be honored\, and may many come to know the Savior who alone brings true and lasting joy.

SUMMARY:Seeing Christ in the Passover: A Night of Worship at Torch Community Church
DESCRIPTION:This year\, Torch Community Church is gathering for a special evening of worship and reflection through a Messianic Passover Seder\, and I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to lead the teaching. By the grace of God\, I’ve had the privilege of walking through this powerful biblical object lesson for more than 20 years\, and it never grows old. Each time\, the beauty of the gospel shines a little brighter as we see how the Passover ultimately points us to Jesus. \nThe heart of the evening is not ceremony — it’s worship. As Hebrews reminds us\, we come “fixing our eyes on Jesus\, the author and perfecter of our faith” (Hebrews 12:2). Every element of the Passover narrative — the lamb\, the blood\, the deliverance — serves as a vivid picture preparing God’s people to recognize the true and better Lamb who was to come. When we walk through the Seder\, we’re not simply remembering Israel’s deliverance from Egypt. We’re celebrating the far greater deliverance accomplished through the cross. Just as the Passover lamb was sacrificed so judgment would pass over the people\, so Christ\, our Passover Lamb\, was sacrificed for us (1 Corinthians 5:7). \nIt’s important to remember that this evening isn’t about perfectly reproducing every historical or cultural detail. The goal is not precision in ritual but clarity in proclamation. The Passover itself was always meant to teach — a God-given object lesson pointing forward to redemption. Jesus Himself reframed the Passover meal on the night He was betrayed\, revealing its fulfillment in the new covenant:“This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood” (Luke 22:20). Through this lens\, the Seder becomes a beautiful visual sermon. Every symbol whispers the same message: God rescues His people through the sacrifice of a substitute. That story reaches its climax in the person and work of Jesus Christ. \nLiving in the New Covenant\nAs believers\, we participate in this evening not as those under the law\, but as those redeemed by grace. Scripture is clear that we are not under the old covenant but under the new\, established through Christ’s finished work (Romans 6:14; Hebrews 8:6–13). That truth frees us to celebrate the Passover not as an obligation\, but as an opportunity — a way to rejoice in the fulfillment of God’s promises. We look back at the shadows and rejoice because we know the substance. The symbols point us to the Savior\, and the story leads us to the cross. \nA Night Centered on the Gospel\nMy prayer for this gathering is simple: that hearts would be stirred with fresh wonder at the beauty of the gospel. Whether someone is experiencing a Messianic Seder for the first time or has attended many\, the goal is the same — to see Jesus more clearly\, love Him more deeply\, and worship Him more fully. \nBecause in the end\, the Passover finds its true meaning in Him.He is the Lamb without blemish.His is the blood that saves.He is the Deliverer who brings us from slavery to freedom. \nAnd so we gather not merely to remember a story\, but to celebrate a Savior.

SUMMARY:Evangelism Training for Emmaus University Students
DESCRIPTION:I’m thankful for the opportunity to spend time with students at Emmaus University on April 14 for a focused witnessing training designed to equip and encourage believers to confidently share the gospel. \nCollege is a season filled with learning\, growth\, and important decisions—but it’s also a season rich with gospel opportunity. Campuses are full of conversations about meaning\, truth\, identity\, and purpose. Scripture reminds us that “you are the light of the world” (Matthew 5:14)\, and God has strategically placed His people exactly where they are for His purposes. \nThis training is designed to help students see evangelism not as a pressure-filled activity\, but as a natural overflow of a life transformed by Christ. Jesus did not call His followers to be silent believers\, but faithful witnesses: “You will be My witnesses” (Acts 1:8). Sharing the gospel is not reserved for experts—it is the joyful calling of every Christian. \nDuring this time together\, we’ll focus on: \n\n\nGaining confidence in the message of the gospel \n\n\nLearning how to start spiritual conversations naturally \n\n\nUnderstanding how Scripture speaks to the human conscience \n\n\nTrusting God with the results of our witness \n\n\nThe apostle Paul wrote\, “We are ambassadors for Christ\, God making His appeal through us” (2 Corinthians 5:20). That truth shapes how we approach evangelism—with humility\, clarity\, and dependence on God rather than ourselves. Students will be encouraged to see that evangelism is not about winning arguments or forcing outcomes. It’s about faithfully proclaiming Christ and trusting the Holy Spirit to open hearts. As Scripture teaches\, “Faith comes from hearing\, and hearing through the word of Christ” (Romans 10:17). \nMy prayer for this training is that students would leave: \n\n\nStrengthened in their confidence in God’s Word \n\n\nEncouraged to live out a lifestyle of evangelism \n\n\nMotivated to boldly but graciously share Christ on campus and beyond \n\n\nPlease pray for this time—that God would prepare hearts\, grant boldness\, and use His Word to bear lasting fruit. “The gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16)\, and we trust Him to work mightily through faithful obedience. I’m grateful for the chance to invest in the next generation of gospel witnesses and look forward to seeing how God uses this training for His glory.

SUMMARY:Inspiring Students to the Adventure of Evangelism at Emmaus University
DESCRIPTION:I’m grateful and excited for the opportunity to speak in chapel at Emmaus University on April 15. College campuses are places where worldviews are shaped\, convictions are tested\, and life trajectories are often set. It’s a privilege to open God’s Word with students during such a formative season of life. My prayer for this time is simple but weighty: that students would be equipped and inspired to embrace a lifestyle of evangelism—not as a temporary activity\, but as a joyful\, lifelong calling flowing from their love for Christ. \nJesus did not call His followers to occasional witness\, but to faithful obedience: “You will be My witnesses” (Acts 1:8). Evangelism is not merely something we do; it is part of who we are as those who have been redeemed by grace. When the gospel truly grips our hearts\, we cannot help but want others to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. \nCollege students stand at a crossroads. Career paths are being considered. Dreams are forming. Plans are taking shape. Scripture reminds us\, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart… and He will make straight your paths” (Proverbs 3:5–6). My hope is to encourage students to think deeply—not only about what they will do for a living\, but about how their lives will be used for eternal purposes. Some students may be called to faithfully witness in the workplace\, the classroom\, or their local communities. Others may sense God stirring their hearts toward full-time ministry\, missions\, or vocational gospel work. Jesus said\, “The harvest is plentiful\, but the laborers are few” (Matthew 9:37). We desperately need men and women who are willing to give their lives to the proclamation of Christ—wherever He sends them. \nPaul’s words to Timothy ring especially true for this generation: “Do the work of an evangelist\, fulfill your ministry” (2 Timothy 4:5). Whether one’s calling leads to the marketplace or the mission field\, every believer is entrusted with the gospel and called to steward it faithfully. This upcoming time at Emmaus University is about lifting up Christ\, grounding students in Scripture\, and reminding them that the gospel is the power of God for salvation (Romans 1:16). It’s about inspiring courage\, faithfulness\, and obedience in a world that desperately needs truth. \nPlease pray with me: \n\n\nThat students would grow in confidence in the gospel \n\n\nThat God would ignite a lasting passion for evangelism \n\n\nThat some would prayerfully consider full-time ministry \n\n\nThat Christ would be exalted and His Word would bear fruit \n\n\nI’m thankful for the opportunity to invest in the next generation of gospel witnesses and laborers. May God use this time to shape lives\, clarify callings\, and advance His kingdom—for His glory alone.

SUMMARY:Taking the Gospel to the Streets of Madison\, Wisconsin
DESCRIPTION:I’m thankful for the opportunity to join a group of Emmaus University students on an upcoming witnessing trip to Madison\, Wisconsin\, where we’ll be taking the gospel to the streets and engaging people with the good news of Jesus Christ. \nThere is something profoundly biblical about stepping into public spaces to proclaim Christ. Jesus Himself often taught and interacted with people in open\, everyday settings—by roadsides\, marketplaces\, and city streets. Scripture reminds us\, “How are they to hear without someone preaching?” (Romans 10:14). Our desire on this trip is simply to be faithful messengers\, trusting God to do what only He can do in the hearts of those we encounter. \nThis outreach is not only about sharing the gospel—it’s also about training and discipling students through real-world experience. I’ll be walking alongside the students\, coaching them as they engage in conversations\, offering feedback\, and mentoring them in biblical faithfulness\, clarity\, and love. Evangelism is best learned not only in the classroom\, but in the context of obedience. \nJesus didn’t merely teach His disciples and send them away; He walked with them\, corrected them\, encouraged them\, and shaped them over time. In the same way\, this trip is designed to help students grow in confidence\, discernment\, and reliance on the Holy Spirit. As we head into the streets of Madison\, we do so prayerfully\, knowing that the gospel is offensive to some and life-giving to others. Our responsibility is not to produce results\, but to faithfully proclaim Christ with humility and courage. \nPlease pray: \n\n\nThat God would open hearts and grant repentance and faith \n\n\nThat students would grow in boldness and compassion \n\n\nThat Christ would be honored in every interaction \n\n\nThis trip is an exciting opportunity to invest in the next generation of gospel witnesses while proclaiming the unchanging message of salvation through Jesus Christ alone. We trust that God will use these moments—both seen and unseen—for His glory and for eternal good. Thank you for praying for us as we go\, coach\, mentor\, and proclaim Christ in Madison.

SUMMARY:Tulips to Truth - Sharing the Gospel at Pella’s Tulip Time
DESCRIPTION:Evangelistic Training & Gospel Outreach | May 7–9 | Pella\, Iowa\nEvery spring\, the small town of Pella becomes a gathering place for the nations. Streets fill with color\, music\, tradition—and people. During Tulip Time\, thousands line the parade routes each day\, families shoulder to shoulder\, hearts open to celebration. What an opportunity for the gospel. \nFrom May 7–9\, we will gather for a Christ-centered evangelistic training and gospel outreach designed to equip believers and send them into the harvest—right into the middle of Tulip Time. Over three days\, we will proclaim Christ clearly and compassionately during two parades each day\, placing the good news directly into the hands of people God has already gathered. \nThis event is not just about activity—it’s about faithful obedience. Each day will begin with biblical training focused on gospel clarity\, love for the lost\, and reliance on the Holy Spirit. We want participants to feel confident\, not because of techniques\, but because of the power of the gospel. “For I am not ashamed of the gospel\, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes.” (Romans 1:16) \nYou will be trained to: \n\nClearly explain the gospel in everyday conversations\nShare Christ with humility\, boldness\, and compassion\nEngage families\, children\, and individuals in a joyful public setting\n\nTulip Time features two parades per day\, creating six prime outreach opportunities over the course of the event. Parades are uniquely accessible—people are relaxed\, children are engaged\, and conversations flow naturally. Gospel tracts\, personal conversations\, and prayer all become simple and effective ways to point people to Christ. We will joyfully step into the streets\, not to argue or pressure\, but to lift up Christ and invite people to consider the eternal hope found in Him alone. \nOne of the beauties of parade evangelism is how accessible it is for all ages. Families can serve together. New believers can take part. Seasoned saints can encourage and model faithfulness. This is the church on mission—side by side. Our prayer is not only that unbelievers will hear the gospel\, but that believers will be strengthened\, encouraged\, and reminded that evangelism is not a program—it is a way of life. \nWe are trusting the Lord to do what only He can do: open hearts\, grant repentance\, and save sinners. We will sow faithfully\, pray earnestly\, and give all glory to God\, whatever the visible results may be. “So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything\, but only God who gives the growth.” (1 Corinthians 3:7) \nJoin us this May in Pella\, Iowa\, as we proclaim Christ during Tulip Time. Come be equipped. Come be sent. Come rejoice in the privilege of making Jesus known. “The harvest is plentiful…” (Matthew 9:37) \nFree registration here!  https://www.tulipgospeloutreach.org/events/event/pella-tulip-time-gospel-outreach-2026

SUMMARY:Preaching Christ Where the World Is Watching: 2026 Los Angeles World Cup Outreach
DESCRIPTION:In June 2026\, the eyes of the world will turn to Los Angeles. Nations will gather. Anthems will be sung. Crowds will gather for the first match of the FIFA World Cup. And before the first whistle ever blows\, the gospel of Jesus Christ will already be going forth. \nFrom June 10–11\, believers will be equipped through intensive evangelistic training hosted by Living Waters. Then\, on June 12\, as tens of thousands gather for the first World Cup match of 2026 at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles\, the church will step into the harvest—proclaiming Christ boldly and lovingly from 7–9 PM. \nBefore we go out to the crowds\, we will sit under biblical\, Christ-exalting instruction. The two days of training will focus on gospel clarity\, practical evangelism methods\, dependence on the Holy Spirit\, and confidence rooted not in ourselves\, but in the power of God’s Word. \nThis training is designed to prepare believers for real conversations with real people from all over the world—men and women who may never have heard the gospel clearly before. \nThe World Cup is more than a sporting event—it is a global mission field. People from every nation\, language\, and background will gather in one place. God has already drawn the crowds. Our task is to be faithful with the message of the gospel. \nLiving Waters is hosting a large-scale outreach before the match. Providing structure\, encouragement\, and practical tools for evangelism. Those witnessing with them will receive their newly created World Cup million-dollar bill gospel tracts\, freely given to help spark gospel conversations. \nAt the venue\, there will be multiple opportunities for evangelism\, including: \n\nStreet evangelism and one-on-one conversations\nOn-the-box preaching\, lifting Christ high in public proclamation\nTract distribution\, placing the gospel directly into eager hands\n\nGospel Equip will be joining this outreach with one clear purpose: to faithfully proclaim Christ to the thousands gathered outside SoFi Stadium. We are not going to build a name\, but to exalt His name. Not trusting merely methods\, crowds\, or momentum—but trusting in Christ who saves. \nSome may mock us and ignore the truth that we have to share. But some\, by God’s grace\, will hear the good news and believe. The results belong to the Lord. Our joy is simply obedience. Like it says in 1 Corinthians 3:7\, “So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything\, but only God who gives the growth.” \nAs the world gathers for soccer\, Christ’s church will gather for His glory. As nations cheer for a goal\, we will proclaim the greatest victory ever won—the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross.

SUMMARY:Holding Forth the Word of Life at the Boone County Fair Gospel Booth and Outreach
DESCRIPTION:From June 22–27\, we have a wonderful opportunity to step into a joyful and sober calling: to make Christ known. During the fair\, we will host a gospel booth dedicated to prayer\, conversations\, and sharing the good news of forgiveness through Jesus Christ with those who are lost. God\, in His providence\, gathers the crowds. Our role is simply to be faithful—speaking truth with compassion\, offering hope\, and trusting Him with the results. \nThroughout the week\, visitors will be able to stop by and receive free Christ-centered resources\, including: \n\nGospel tracts\nEvangelistic DVDs\nBooks from Answers in Genesis\nOther materials designed to point hearts to the message of salvation\n\nThese items are not ends in themselves—they are tools to open conversations and clearly present the gospel. Our desire is to engage each person with kindness and clarity\, sharing the good news of forgiveness of sins through repentance and faith. \nPrayer will be the heartbeat of this outreach. Some interactions may be brief\, others more personal. Many people simply need someone to listen or pray with them. Whether conversations are long or short\, every moment matters. Even if you don’t feel confident sharing verbally\, you can play a vital role by praying—quietly nearby or directly with those who request it. No act of faithful obedience is small in God’s kingdom. \nWe would love for you to take part in any way you can: \n\nHelp man the booth for an evening\nStop by to share the gospel\nSpend time praying for people\nCome to watch\, learn\, and grow in confidence\n\nThis outreach is intentionally simple and accessible. Whether you have years of evangelism experience or are just beginning\, there is a place for you. Feel free to forward this invitation to other believers who may want to participate or learn more about sharing their faith. \nWe do not know how God will use each conversation\, tract\, or prayer—but we know He is at work. Some may walk away thoughtful. Some may not be interested. And some\, by God’s grace\, may hear the gospel clearly and believe. Our confidence rests not in our efforts\, but in the Lord who saves. \nOur prayer for June 22–27 is simple: \n\nThat Christ would be exalted\nThat believers would be edified\nThat sinners would be evangelized\nAnd that God alone would receive all the glory\n\nMay God be glorified during this outreach as we hold forth the Word of Life.

SUMMARY:Preaching Jesus for Leftist\, Pro-Abortion Government School Administrators at the NEA
DESCRIPTION:From July 2–8\, 2026\, our team will be present at the annual convention of the National Education Association (NEA)in Denver\, Colorado — the largest teachers’ union in the United States and a major influencer in public education today. For many years\, this outreach was organized by Answers in Genesis\, and we are grateful for the foundation they laid. Here’s a blog article by Ken Ham on the gospel outreach. Today\, it continues under the leadership of Gospel Equip\, equipping believers to engage thoughtfully and lovingly with educators from across the country. \nThis outreach is not about changing school curriculum or imposing ideas on classrooms. Instead\, our focus is on the hearts of public school teachers. We aim to bring them to repentance and faith in Jesus\, trusting that as their hearts change\, they will naturally impact their students through the way they live and teach\, bringing a Christian worldview to their classrooms organically. \nThe NEA represents a culture and worldview that often conflicts with biblical truth (It is a leftist\, liberal\, marxist\, pro-abortion\, explicitly anti-homeschooling\, implicilty anti-Christ political organization)\, so the convention is a strategic place for gospel conversations. Our presence there is a faithful\, loving witness to teachers who are shaping the next generation. \nDuring the convention\, our team will egngage teachers and education leaders in respectful\, gospel-centered conversation\, distribute resources that encourage reflection on the truth of Creation\, and demonstrate Christlike humility in every interaction\, Even small conversations can plant seeds that God may grow into life-changing faith. \nPlease join us in prayer for open hearts and meaningful conversations\, wisdom\, boldness\, and grace for our team\, protection and unity during the outreach\, and lasting fruit from seeds planted among teachers.

SUMMARY:Proclaiming Christ Across the Pacific: Gospel Mission in Korea\, Japan\, and Okinawa
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to announce an upcoming gospel outreach trip to Korea\, Japan\, and Okinawa! A unique opportunity to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ in nations where only a small percentage of the population identifies as Christian. Please pray with us as we prepare for this exciting mission in Asia! \nOur journey will begin in Seoul\, Korea where there is a unique excitement that comes with preaching the gospel in Korea. Standing in busy streets filled with people from every walk of life\, sharing the message of Christ carries both urgency and joy. Korea has a deep spiritual history and a remarkable openness to conversation\, which makes every gospel encounter feel significant. Whether speaking one-on-one\, handing out tracts\, or proclaiming the good news in public places Christ will be magnified. \nAfterwards we will travel to Osaka to focus on direct gospel outreach among the Japanese people. Through preaching\, personal conversations\, and fellowship\, our desire is to clearly communicate the message of repentance and faith in Christ. Japan is often considered a mission field with great spiritual need\, and we are humbled to be part of what God is doing there. Japan is a nation rich in history\, tradition\, and community\, yet the gospel remains unfamiliar to many. \nThen we will fly to Okinawa where we will be sharing the gospel through a Karate tournament. Martial arts have deep cultural roots in Okinawa\, making this a meaningful setting to connect with people and build relationships. Through conversations\, testimonies\, and personal interactions\, we will be sharing the hope\, forgiveness\, and new life found in Jesus Christ. Traveling with us will be two dedicated Karate senseis who love both the art of Karate and the Lord. One of them\, Sensei Steve\, leads The Master’s Martial Arts Academy\, a dojo committed to the motto “Karate for Christ.” At his school\, students are reminded that the true Master is Jesus\, and we are excited to see how that testimony will resonate with those we meet in Okinawa. \nFollowing the tournament we will fly to Japan again for a few more days of gospel preaching\, This trip is not just about events or travel—it’s about people hearing the life-changing message of Jesus. We pray that seeds will be planted\, hearts opened\, and that God will raise up faithful witnesses throughout the country. \nHow You Can Pray\n\nPray for safe travels and good health for the team\nPray for open doors and meaningful Christ-centered conversations\nPray for boldness\, clarity\, and love as we share the gospel\nPray for the people of Okinawa and Osaka to respond to Christ\n\nWe are filled with anticipation for what the Lord will do. Thank you for standing with us in prayer as we step out in faith to share Jesus in Japan.

SUMMARY:Join us at the Germantown Fair Gospel Booth Outreach
DESCRIPTION:There are moments when the Lord opens doors in ordinary places—busy walkways\, food stands\, and family gatherings—so the extraordinary message of the gospel can be heard. This year\, we invite you to experience one of those moments at our Gospel Outreach Booth at the Germantown Fair. \nWhether you’re curious about evangelism\, eager to grow in boldness\, or simply want to observe\, this is a wonderful opportunity to come\, watch\, and learn how the good news of Jesus Christ is shared with grace and compassion. Not everyone feels ready to speak with strangers about Christ—and that’s okay. This outreach is designed so that no speaking is necessary for volunteers who prefer to observe. You can: \n\nWatch seasoned evangelists lovingly engage fairgoers\nSee real conversations unfold in a natural setting\nLearn practical ways to communicate the gospel\nGrow in confidence simply by being present\n\nOften\, the most powerful training comes not from a classroom\, but from seeing the gospel shared in real time. \nEven if you never say a word\, you can play a vital role through prayer. While experienced team members share verbally\, volunteers are encouraged to pray quietly for conversations\, softened hearts\, and open doors. Scripture reminds us that the work is ultimately God’s. “I planted\, Apollos watered\, but God gave the growth.” — 1 Corinthians 3:6 Prayer acknowledges that salvation is the Lord’s work\, and it invites Him to move in power during each interaction. \nOur aim is simple: to lift high the name of Jesus and proclaim the message of reconciliation through Him. The gospel we share is rooted in the truth of Scripture: \n\nOur need:“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” — Romans 3:23\nGod’s love:“But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners\, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8\nOur hope:“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” — Romans 10:13\n\nEvery conversation\, tract\, and prayer points back to the finished work of Christ—His life\, death\, and resurrection. You don’t need experience. You don’t need to be outgoing. You only need a willing heart. Come if you want to: \n\nSee biblical evangelism modeled\nGrow in your love for the lost\nSupport gospel work through prayer\nBe encouraged by God at work in real time\n\nYou may find that simply standing nearby\, praying\, and watching will deepen your burden for souls and your confidence in the power of the gospel. \nWe warmly invite you to stop by the booth during the fair. Stay for a few minutes or linger longer—observe\, pray\, and let the Lord stir your heart. Jesus said: “The harvest is plentiful\, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” — Matthew 9:37–38. Come be part of that prayer. Come see the harvest fields. Come watch the gospel go forth.

SUMMARY:Proclaiming Christ at the Iowa State Fair Parade!
DESCRIPTION:Parades are filled with joy\, music\, families\, and celebration—but they are also filled with people who need to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. Sidewalks lined with spectators create a unique opportunity where conversations begin naturally and hearts can be reached simply\, kindly\, and intentionally. If you’ve ever wondered where to start in evangelism\, a parade is one of the easiest and most welcoming places to share the gospel\, especially through the simple act of handing out gospel tracts. \nOne of the beautiful truths of Scripture is that God calls us to be faithful sowers. We are not responsible for results—only for obedience. “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.” — Matthew 13:37 When you offer a gospel tract with a smile\, you are planting a seed. It may be read that day\, later at home\, or even years from now—but God promises that His Word never returns empty. “So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty\, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose.” — Isaiah 55:11 \nAt a parade\, where people are already receiving candy\, flyers\, and handouts\, offering a tract feels natural and non-intrusive. It’s a gentle yet powerful way to place eternal truth into someone’s hands. Parades create a setting where evangelism becomes simple: \n\nPeople are relaxed and open\nHand-to-hand distribution is expected\nConversations can be brief yet meaningful\nLarge crowds mean many opportunities in a short time\n\nIn moments like these\, we’re reminded of Paul’s exhortation: “Walk in wisdom toward outsiders\, making the best use of the time.” — Colossians 4:5 With just a few words—“Here’s something encouraging to read later”—you can share the message of salvation with dozens or even hundreds of people. Our confidence is not in our eloquence but in the message itself. The gospel is the power of God to save. “For I am not ashamed of the gospel\, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes.” — Romans 1:16 Every tract points to the same glorious truth: \n\nHumanity’s need because of sin (Romans 3:23)\nGod’s love shown in Christ’s sacrifice (Romans 5:8)\nThe call to repent and believe (Mark 1:15)\n\nEven a brief encounter can become a divine appointment when the Spirit uses the truth of Christ to draw a heart. \nMany believers hesitate to evangelize because they feel unprepared. But giving out tracts at a parade is a wonderful first step. It requires no long conversations—just kindness\, prayer\, and willingness. Remember Jesus’ promise: “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you\, and you will be my witnesses.” — Acts 1:8 God delights in using ordinary believers who simply show up in faith. \nThere is deep joy in participating in Christ’s mission. When you hand someone a tract\, you’re joining the work of heaven—inviting people to be reconciled to God. “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” — Romans 10:15 Imagine standing among fellow believers\, praying together\, smiling\, and sharing truth as the parade passes by. It’s simple. It’s joyful. And it matters for eternity. \nWe warmly invite you to join us in sharing the gospel at the Iowa State Fair Parade in downtown Des Moines. Whether you give out tracts\, pray\, or encourage others\, you are taking part in the Great Commission\, come experience how easy and rewarding it can be to share the hope of Jesus in a setting where hearts are open and opportunities are everywhere. Let’s step into the streets with love\, confidence\, and the unchanging message of the cross—trusting God to bring the increase.

SUMMARY:Get Equipped to Share Your Faith: Join Our 4-Day Witnessing Training & Outreach in Minnesota
DESCRIPTION:If you’re a believer who wants to grow in confidently sharing the gospel — but aren’t sure where to start\, what to say\, or how to begin conversations — this camp is for you. We’re inviting Christians who love Jesus and want to be more intentional about making Him known to join us for a 4-day (4-night) witnessing training and outreach camp.

Jesus calls every believer to be His witness\, and many simply need a place to learn how. These four days are an opportunity to be equipped\, encouraged\, and sent out with greater confidence in the gospel and the God who saves. Come grow with us\, serve with us\, and discover the joy of sharing Christ together. \n\n“How are they to believe in Him of whom they have never heard?” — Romans 10:14

SUMMARY:Witnessing Workshop Evangelism Training
DESCRIPTION:Witnessing Workshop at Torch Community Church – Be Equipped to Share the Gospel!\n“And He said to them\, ‘Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.’” – Mark 16:15 \nThe command of Jesus Christ is clear—every believer is called to be His witness. Yet many Christians struggle with fear\, uncertainty\, or simply not knowing how to begin. That’s why Torch Community Church is hosting a Witnessing Workshop—a time of encouragement\, equipping\, and practice to help you faithfully share the good news of Jesus Christ with a lost and dying world. \nWhy a Witnessing Workshop?\nThe gospel is “the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16). But that power must be proclaimed! At this workshop\, you’ll: \n\nLearn biblical principles of evangelism—rooted in God’s Word\, not man’s methods.\nBe equipped with practical tools and approaches for starting gospel conversations.\nGain confidence to share your faith through role-playing and real-life examples.\nJoin with brothers and sisters in Christ who are passionate about reaching the lost.\n\nA Call to Obedience and Joy\nEvangelism is not only a duty—it’s a joy. When we share Christ\, we join God in His eternal work of drawing sinners to Himself. As Paul said\, “We are ambassadors for Christ\, God making His appeal through us” (2 Corinthians 5:20). Imagine the eternal impact: a conversation you have could be the means God uses to rescue someone from darkness and bring them into His marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9). \nYou’re Invited\nWhere: Torch Community Church \nWhen: Saturday\, September 5th at 10am. \nWho: Every believer who desires to obey Christ’s Great Commission \nCome ready to be challenged\, encouraged\, and equipped. Whether you’ve never shared the gospel before or you’ve been doing it for years\, this workshop will strengthen your faith and sharpen your witness. Let’s be a church that not only gathers but goes—bringing the light of Christ into our community. \n“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” – Romans 10:15

SUMMARY:Faith in Action: A Week of Gospel Impact at the Calvary Bible Church Missions Conference
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, believers gather at Calvary Bible Church in New Jersey for a powerful and purposeful week — their annual Missions Conference\, dedicated to equipping the saints and reaching the lost. It’s more than an event; it’s a time of spiritual renewal\, practical training\, and bold obedience to Christ’s command to make disciples. Throughout the week\, participants dive into dynamic evangelism sessions designed to strengthen both conviction and clarity. These times of teaching are rooted in Scripture and focused on helping believers share the gospel faithfully — with truth\, love\, and confidence. \nBut the conference doesn’t stop at learning. Each day\, what’s taught is put into practice. From role-playing gospel conversations to heading into the community with tracts\, testimonies\, and prayer\, attendees experience firsthand the joy and challenge of stepping out in faith. The heartbeat of the conference is simple: faith that moves from the classroom to real conversations with real people. The words of the apostle Paul capture the spirit of the week perfectly: \n\n“For I am not ashamed of the gospel\, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes” (Romans 1:16). \n\nThat truth fuels every message\, every outreach\, and every conversation. The prayer of the church is that each participant leaves more confident in the message\, more obedient to the call\, and more joyful in proclaiming Christ — whether to a neighbor across the street or a stranger across the world. The harvest truly is plentiful\, and the time to go is now. As seeds of the gospel are planted throughout the week\, we trust God to bring the growth and to bear eternal fruit for His glory.

SUMMARY:Come Join Us at Court Days — Christ Lifted High in the Marketplace
DESCRIPTION:Court Days are full of life — families walking the streets\, vendors calling out\, children laughing\, and neighbors reconnecting. In the middle of all that movement\, we’re setting up something eternal: a Gospel booth devoted to the glory of Jesus Christ. \nSetting up a Gospel booth at a fair is a wonderful way to engage so many with the Good News. With a banner behind us proclaiming Christ and tables laid out with Bibles\, tracts\, and Christ-centered resources\, we want to create a welcoming space where conversations about eternal things can happen naturally. \nThe marketplace has always been a place of witness. In Acts 17\, the Apostle Paul reasoned daily in the marketplace about Christ. We come in that same spirit — not to argue\, not to pressure\, but to lovingly proclaim: There is salvation in no one else\, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. — Acts 4:12 \nAt our booth\, the message is simple and clear: \n\nGod is holy.\nMan is sinful.\nChrist is sufficient.\n\n“But God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners\, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8 \nJesus Christ — truly God and truly man — lived the life we could not live and died the death we deserved. He bore the wrath of God for sinners\, rose again in victory\, and now offers forgiveness and eternal life to all who repent and believe. Court Days will offer food\, crafts\, and entertainment — but we are offering something infinitely greater: the free gift of eternal life in Christ. \nOur booth isn’t just a display — it’s an invitation. Have questions about God? Struggling with doubt? Want to know what the Bible really says? Looking for hope in the middle of a hard season? We love to talk and pray with both believers and unbelievers.. \nIf you are a Christian\, Court Days is also an opportunity to join in the joy of making Christ known. Jesus said: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations…” — Matthew 28:19 The fair brings the nations to our doorstep. What a privilege to lift high the name of Jesus in the open air. The lost will stop by our Gospel booth. They will take a Bible or pick up a tract. I praise the Lord that they ask questions and stay to talk. We get to tell them about the Savior who changes hearts and grants eternal life. \nAmid the noise of the fair\, we are praying that Christ would be clearly seen and that many would hear His voice. We look forward to equipping and encouraging the saints who volunteer — and even more\, we look forward to seeing the Lord glorified. Come find us at Court Days. Christ is worthy.
