Witnessing Encounters

Recently on our youtube channel I began talking with a pagan who believes “Everyone has psychic ability.”  She believes this ability is something people show when they have Deja Vu or when you think of someone calling you and they do.  In order to bolster her case she told me there is a technique the military developed for anyone to use their psychic power, its called Remote Viewing.  Since the military developed this method to train people its obvious “everyone [...]

Last September I witnessed at the Blue Springs Festival which is held every year.  A fall festival of food, carnival rides and lots of opportunities to speak with people about eternity.  While I was there I had a long conversation with a young man named Chris.  He worked at one of the booths.  He seemed open about talking about the things of God so we had a long conversation. One thing he kept bringing up was the Gospel of Judas.  [...]

A few months ago I was “witnessed” to by a Calvinist on our youtube channel.  He watched a video I uploaded entitled “Predestined for Hell?  Absolutely Not!” by Adrian Rogers.  He proceeded to tell me that Adrian Rogers preaches an “Arminian false gospel of free-will” and therefore he preaches a “false Christ” and “false god.” This Calvinist then accused ME from the start of being an Arminian and I preach a false gospel because I believe a sinner must “make [...]

One day I was talking to a young 17 year-old male about eternity.  He said, “Eternal hell is Cruel!  I have friends who haven’t grown up in a Christian home so how could God send them to eternal hell?  They didn’t get the opportunities I did to learn about the truth growing up!  I think hell should be temporary.” I said, “Is it ok for a convicted criminal to go to jail for the rest of his life?”  He said, [...]

Key West is an interesting place to witness.  Scores of tourists flock to the tiny island each winter to escape the northern cold, or perhaps escape the confines of more conservative communities.  It’s definitely a place where nearly anything goes.  After a night of interesting conversations with partiers along Duvall Street, I continued witnessing the next day among crowds of shoppers.  Sadly, when late afternoon came it was time to head back to the mainland. Before leaving, I wanted a [...]

the_tailgating_born_again_featured_image

A few weeks ago I decided to go witnessing during a University of Utah tailgate party across the street from the Rice-Eccles stadium. It was actually my first experience with tailgating.  Walking into the massive party by myself, with tracts and materials in hand, I struck up several conversations with various people and groups. I must say the heavy drinking threw me back to my college days. Not only had I forgotten what that atmosphere was like, I was seeing [...]

A few months ago I ran into one of my ex-witnessing partners at Costco.  We talked for over an hour.  At one point the topic of the lost and Calvinism came up… because I brought up the subject of course.  I asked him if he was still a Calvinist, and he said he was. The last time I spoke with him his father was not a believer.  I asked him, “Is your dad still an unbeliever?” He said “Yes.” I [...]

I was handing out gospel tracts at the Santa-Cali-Gon festival last Friday evening when a 16 year old girl named Kelsey handed me a tract about the Book of Mormon.  The tract said the Book of Mormon was God’s word, more reliable than the bible itself. I asked her “Why do you believe in the book of Mormon?”  She said, “I’ve been told the Book of Mormon is true.” “Who told you that?” I asked. She said, “My parents told [...]
