Evangelism Explosion Banquet

Sunday, the LORD gave me the privilege of speaking at First Baptist Church in the city of Montpelier to share about E.E.. The believers who meet there were extremely kind to me and I thank the LORD for the tremendous way I was treated by those in attendance. They were surely a blessing!

The thing I wanted to write about, though is that in my attempts to encourage the brethren to take advantage of this tremendous opportunity to get better equipped to share the gospel, I ended up being pretty encouraged myself. Thinking back through all the lives that have been touched through this tremendous discipling, gospel-training ministry has rekindled a passion within me to seek to 'get back in the saddle' and get to work somehow in E.E.. "Oh, Lord - use me once more, I pray!"

I praise the LORD for the people He has allowed me to meet and to work with and to come to know through the Evangelism Explosion ministry.

Seeing the people, He felt compassion for them, because they were
distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd.
Then He
said to His disciples,

"The harvest is plentiful,
but the workers are few.
Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send
out workers into His harvest."
