A Recent Study Showed: 82% of unchurched folks said they were likely to go to church if invited. It also revealed that only 2% of people in church ever invite anyone. this week be like Andrew with his brother Peter, “Come and see!” sounds easy, doesn’t it? it is.

I am part of a gaming community. We kill each other online…all over the world…it’s great fun. The other day I was talking, during the game, between bullets, to a guy I find out lives near me. He finds out that I am a pastor…and wants to talk about Jesus. He wants to follow Jesus but finds it so hard to be good…sounds just like everybody I know, including me! So, he is going to send me his contact info and we are going to get together and talk about Jesus! All because we blow each other up online…cool, huh!

The exchange between Lee and the atheist in, Day 34, Passion for people, brought to mind a personal lesson I learned a few years back; also one I am at least to some degree, sorry to say, still struggling with today. My lesson (you may not have this problem) is dealing with atheists, that criticize Christianity, in a loving manner instead of forcefully crushing their lies, and making them look like fools. I will tell you the story but be careful when you read it because you may initially embrace the spirit of “yeah, right on, give it to them,” [...]

I’m amazed at what happened with a guy at work. He is a Chinese immigrant that I’ve worked with for several years. I’ve had my struggles in getting along with him, but all that began to change with this Unexpected Adventure. It started in week two with breaking the ice in a very light God Conversation. After a few other encounters I learned that he was interested in learning more about Christianity. I tried to steer him into a bible study group at work but he wanted to hear from me instead. So we met for lunch and I started [...]

For myself, this was a very important chapter. When questions arise and then are openly asked and are either not taken seriously, belittled or a condescending remark is made concerning some portion of that question……a division arises and strife may be caused. This occurrence may not be easily forgotten. It is insulting and offensive to the questioner. I know, I have had this happened to me on more than one occasion. In school, at work and by other Christians. When it occurs I withdrawl, so as not to become engaged in an unproductive conversation. However, from then on I don’t [...]

Day 27 Adventure We need to know a lot more about what we believe. Not to convince ourselves, but to have the beginning of answers for those who are searching. We shy away from this because one of our biggest fears is that we have to be a theologian to share our faith with others. We have to be honest and do what Paul says “But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for your hope that you have. But do this with [...]

Good afternoon to you all, this encounter is the start of an Unexpected Adventure. It all started in the checkout at Food 4 Less. This is the funny part. An African American man named Charles was just talking away about as he was checking out. He made this quote “I have to carry these groceries home and I am not able to take a cart. Because last time I did that my daughter told me that was ghetto. It was probably because I left it right out side her front door”. I laughed and at that moment God spoke to [...]

Hi Kevin You wrote in an email: How is this “adventure” going for you? Great! I am so glad you suggested this book. Hope there are others to follow. This seems to be one way to consistently grow a little each day and get some feed back in doing so. IMHO Has is been challenging keeping up the reading? No, each days reading is short and to the point which holds my interest. I actually look forward to the time each day that I do get to read. I have no set time so there is never any pressure. [...]

you can check out this facebook cause – people are talking, join the conversation! Cassie Labbe left you a note. Well I had a few yesterday, I would have to say, We were talking about learning to understand God’s love for us, though we know that the vast majority is not for us to know or understand, I want to get to know his heart, for the realization of who he is to surpass my worldly ideas of love, how we want to know God’s love, God’s heart. Gabriel Shippam left you a note. i had some God conversations with [...]
