Door to Door

One of the foundational building blocks of our church is that we are prayerfully and desperately (for the Kingdom's sake) desiring people to connect with God.

To start a spiritual relationship with Jesus Christ.

C.T. Studd lived from 1860 - 1931.  He was educated at Cambridge and was one of the top cricket players of his time.

In fact, he was so good that others in the sporting world compared him to America's Babe Ruth or Ty Cobb.

Well, it so happened that C.T. Studd became a Christian.  As a result he decided to contend for men and women who seemed headed for the fires of Hell.

He gave away a fortune and became part of the famous Cambridge Seven, bright university students who left comfortable England and went instead to the mission field.

Eventually, Studd died an old man in distant Africa, but not before saying:

Some want to live within the sound
Of church or chapel bell,
I want to run a rescue shop
Within a yard of hell.

I am challenged by that.

Here's what I know:  In all probability, God is not calling you to go to Africa, but he is calling you to go across the street.

Let me share with you how:  This Saturday, March 16, we will be meeting here at the church at 9:30 A.M. and going door to door - leaving door hangers inviting people to our Sunday morning Easter services.

We have over 2000 homes that we will be visiting in the span of two hours.

Would you consider joining us - and walk the walk concerning reaching the lost?

People need Jesus - we have the answer.

Just a thought for a Wednesday.
