00:01 (James Rafferty) So glad you've joined us for this program.
00:02 It's gone so quickly. I just want to ask what about 00:05 personal stories that you guys have experienced? 00:08 (David Pano) You know I...when I went to school I didn't want 00:10 to be in full-time ministry. I wanted to be a good lay 00:14 member. I still have my dreams and career and everything. And 00:18 it was through canvassing when I experienced...I went to knock at 00:22 a door and this gentleman opened up and...It's a long story, 00:27 trying to make it short I just give him Bible you know our 00:31 books and this man, the owner of the house was looking at the 00:34 books. This other man come in the back and he grabs the books 00:37 and he says is this from the Bible? You know of course. Like 00:40 how are you? You know he was a big guy and we talked to us and 00:43 everything. And I was like yes He's like well is, is...can you 00:48 tell me more about it. He started sharing. He said, you 00:51 know I just got out of jail. I gave me life to God in jail. 00:55 (Really) but I'm still in bondage on gambling and 01:00 alcohol. And I usually have my Bible. Just grab it, open it and 01:05 share simple Bible verses that explains righteousness by faith 01:08 and victory. And this man just started crying. After that I 01:13 just saw the Holy Spirit touching him. He just hugged me 01:16 Walking out I just realized, I want to do this for life. 01:24 And that's when I decided to change my career to theology 01:28 and it's something that you will never, never, never forget. 01:33 I love that. Praise God, praise God. 01:36 (Bill Krick) You know what, just briefly, James, I remember 01:39 knocking at a door, having a Bible study with someone and 01:43 then the coworker came and eventually the coworker and her 01:46 husband were baptized. And as a young person finding out that 01:48 my contact had been baptized was so enjoyable for me. That's what 01:53 I remember. 01:54 You know it's been such a blessing to hear these stories 01:56 not just about the other young people but about yourselves and 01:59 your personal experiences and how God has led you into this 02:02 ministry. And I'm just so thankful that you've been here 02:05 and I want to encourage you to come back more often. 02:06 God bless you until next time. 02:10 ♪ ♪ |
