Encounters

Last Thursday night at the mall, we met at least 6 people.
The first person was Hank, a young guy who did not believe in absolute truth and was lost. After we spoke with him, he said he would honestly think about what I told him. He also told me that he really appreciated me telling him the gospel. We also met two guys from Madison County, TN. Their names were Matthew and Dillion. Matthew stated that he was lost. Dillion said that he was saved, but had drifted and then returned to Christ. The last three were from Detroit, Michigan and stated that they were all lost. Please pray that God would grant all of these young men saving grace.

Encounters

I will be posting our most recent "Encounters" under the labels column. It will be an update/prayer request to tell you about the people we meet out in the public. The people we meet are usually lost and stand in the need of prayer. I will be posting their names, if we get them, for you to pray that God would grant them saving grace. If they have other needs or are other types of encounters, I will post them also. Please check back often under the "labels column" to pray for them.

Summer is almost over. We are now approaching Fall and cooler weather. As a ministry, we are planning some outdoor activities. We plan on going back to Sugarlands Visitor Center in the Great Smoky Mountains and to one or more U.T. football games.  Please begin now to pray for the ministry as we go, and your involvement with these outreach efforts.

Growing up in a Southern Baptist Church, I went to a Royal Ambassadors class (that tells my age). I remember as a kid thinking that it was so cool to be able to speak for God, and have such a high position as a Royal Ambassador. I am much older and a Christian now, and it is sill a tremendous privilege to speak as an ambassador for the King. God has chosen us to be His mouthpiece to a lost and dying world. To me, that is an awesome responsibility, and one that we should all be doing in someway.  The scripture for that thought is: 2 Corinthians 5:20-21 “Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making His appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made Him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.”    
What a great passage of scripture! May we all have the boldness to live that verse.
