Yes. That’s right. I’ve been a Christian for 17 years and a pastor for 9, yet 2 years ago I became sober—minded!
On July 31st of 2005, Ray Comfort taught “Hell’s Best Kept Secret at my church.
And after hearing it—and applying it—I felt that I was born again, again.

The motto for our evangelism team is “Go and make—mistakes!” Richard Chavarria made this one on a recent weekend in Huntington Beach:

“What is it?” he asked.
“It’s has the million dollar question on the back,” I replied. “If you died today would you go to Heaven [...]

“Some talk of it as an unreasonable thing to fright persons to Heaven, but I think it is a reasonable thing to endeavor to fright persons away from Hell. They stand at its brink, and are ready to fall into it, and are senseless of their danger. Is it not a reasonable thing to fright [...]

We set up our dummy, Eutychus’ Sis, on the Redondo Beach Pier last Saturday to attract the crowds.
People would stop in horror; we would preach to them. After three sermons by three evangelists, it was my turn. I gave it a go and when I finished, three policemen greeted me. Someone had complained about [...]

Last Tuesday, I posted an article concerning some of the things that are happening to our country as we rapidly decline to an anti-Christian nation. I believe that this is in large part due to our lack of evangelistic zeal and lukewarm Christianity. The most shocking part of the article was the Hindu priest who [...]

The day lived up to its name.
I’m not superstitious—I don’t knock on wood; I walk under ladders; and I always make it a point to step on cracks. But there was something kinda funny, kinda strange going on when I walked into Peet’s Coffee for a large caffeinated beverage last Friday the 13th.
Now I [...]

Here are some people who took their last breaths in the bathroom. I got these from The Bathroom Reader (a very entertaining and funny book):
In 1016, 27-year-old King Edmond II of England was murdered in the bathroom by an assassin who hid behind his primitive toilet. As Edmond sat, the murderer stepped out and [...]

On Tuesday I asked your thoughts about a man who held up a sign at a gay pride gathering that said: “Lied, Stolen, Lusted? Homosexual, Fornicator, Drunkard? Repent and call on the Lord Jesus to Escape Hell.” He was subsequently molested by the mob (read the account here).
My questions to you were these: What is [...]

What do you think?
A very zealous evangelist went to a Chicago gay pride parade and unfurled a banner that said: Lied, Stolen, Lusted? Homosexual, Fornicator, Drunkard? Repent and call on the Lord Jesus to Escape Hell.
And this was the result: “…before it was all over I was basically molested, they handled me in [...]
