Jesse and I were joined by another partner of mine Jason Sullivan this afternoon as we hosted an Outreach Event at Aspen Pointe in Roswell. We had a great team from Roswell United Methodist Church who provided all the food and games for the event. We had a great crowd from the complex.

We had the opportunity to share Christ with the kids as the parents watched.

My partners from World Harvest Church and their “Street Reach” team does a great job each week sharing Christ with the kids.

In a few minutes I’ll head over to First Baptist Church of Lilburn where I’ll be sharing a mission project with their kids. They’ll be collecting school supplies for the kids at the missions near their church. It’s a good way for the kids to have an initial missions experience!

I had a terrific time preaching today at Cowboy Church in Jerusalem, Georgia!

I worked with one of my favorite partners, Rebecca Hampton who is part of our Mission Service Corps team of the North American Mission Board.

She is doing a terrific job with troubled youth in the area.

In the last few months over 24 people have come to the Lord because of her work. Today I presented a revised story of the Prodigal Son from a cowboy perspective. “There was a rich rancher in S. Texas who had two sons. The younger son was tired of living on the ranch and wanted to go to Austin!”

I ended my sermon with , “Take the Church, to the Cowboys!”

It was a beautiful thing!

I also made the comment that “I’d seen every kind of back row Baptist. But I’ve never seen a HORSE on the back row before!” It was pretty amazing to see this palamino lean over the fence to nuzzle on of the congregation on the back row!

It was a long trip–nearly 200 hundred miles to Jerusalem and back to Stone Mountain. But it was certainly worth the time. I shot a lot of video so I can help promote Rebecca’s work at the ranch. Please pray that she will be able to reach many more of her neighbors for Christ!

I got home about 9:30pm. Kathy, Jesse and I enjoyed watching the movie “Amazing Grace.” We’ll finish watching it tomorrow.

Love you guys!
