WOW!

Well, I apologize for not letting you in on yesterday's travel, no access to internet in Kentucky...Three Springs RV Park that is. However, we are in Ohio and all I can say is wow. we are hanging out at a new rv park listening to RJ, Eric, and jack play a little, or attempt to play some james taylor.

But let me tell you a bit about the day. The interviews began our day as we talked with several key leaders within baptist life in Ohio. Our interviews consisted of focusing on having a burden for the lost, how to share the Gospel and even some creative methods which congregations are using to penetrate their communities. My prayer is that our congregation would be inspired to dream of creative ways to penetrate our community. Our job as a staff is to equip the congregation to do the work of the ministry. Because I am such a hands on type of leader, I am seeking to use this time we have to learn how to better equip and empower ErBC to jump out there at get after it. So please, if you are reading this blog be patient as i learn to be the best pastor for Christ and you as i can be.

Following our interviews we took the camera equipment and hit Ohio State University campus and did man/woman on the street interviews. I can't wait for you guys to see it. It was great. One we didn't film was a guy who had just moved here a month ago from china. He had no religious background at all. So i started with God the creator just as we learned from our friend from Cambodia jack. Following this I went in to how God created him and sin separated him, etc., long story short the guy bowed his head and prayed to receive Christ! WOW!

Tomorrow we hit the streets to talk with Chuck Lawless who is a difficult man to connect with, we are blessed God gave us the opportunity...keep us in your prayers and email the blog to your friends. we will try to upload some pics as well before the night is out.

I am glad you guys are spreading the word and reaching out to the lost.

Please do not let Levi get to much face time in front of the camera.

Maybe Jeff can teach Eric how to play the guitar.Maybe a little Jimi Hendrix.

Jack please keep them all in line....

I'll be praying for a sucessful and safe trip.
