Future spots being explored are Petersburg, Rochester, Chatham and other parts of this big city of Springfield. The rubber meets the road…on the road. We can expound and pontificate from a pulpit on Sunday morning, feel good about ourselves and there is nothing wrong with any of this. However the Great Commission from the Great Christ was to “GO AND MAKE”, not sit and take. Evangelism and outreach are not just two words which begin with vowels, but the burden of every soul (or should be) who has been called out of the pit by the Great Rescuer – Jesus, when He saved us. This event went so well, that even the regional management of Hardee’s was impressed by the size and tone of this outreach, under the most perfect sky of the month!

So many hearts were touched, we were invited to do an event there monthly. If I had the resources and could, I would do that, just to reach that part of the city which has the biggest strip-club between Chicago and St. Louis – Deja Vu! God alone knows how many people’s lives – from marriages to the young women who peddle their flesh there – have been completely destroyed by this so-called “gentleman’s club”. No real gentleman will be caught dead in a place like that – EVER!

 Webster’s dictionary describes AWE as an emotion variously combining dread, veneration, and wonder that is inspired by authority or by the sacred.Another dictionary defines awe as “a feeling of reverential respect mixed with fear or wonder”. In both cases, we see two things – the use of the words “feeling (or emotion)” and secondly – “sacred (or reverential)”.

Both definitions include the words “dread and fear” and both have the same word, wonder, at the end of their respective definition. So that does that mean to us? No one could have said it better than the great prophet Isaiah in Chapter 6 of his book..
