Breakthrough!

Today I had the privilege of teaching my first home Bible study in East Jackson. I taught a young father and husband in his living room using the "Place Prepared for You" one-hour study, covering the need for repentance and baptism in the name of Jesus. I was able to talk to him about these important aspects of salvation, leave the study book with him, and interest him in further study and in being baptized! This was our tenth week of outreach in this neighborhood and God is opening all the doors for us. It just takes consistant effort to show you really care about a person and their life, both here-and-now and in eternity. I thank God for what He is doing and pray that I will remain up to the task of doing kingdom-work for Jesus!
