The message that I preached, which caused him to call the police, can be seen here. This citizen never complained to me, until after he had already summoned for the police response.
Our intent was to preach this message into a larger crowd, during Redlands highly populated outdoors Market Night. However apparently the city took a break so that the citizens could enjoy other Halloween festivities. We decided to press-on with a smaller crowd. Across the street in the restaurants patio, was a captive audience. Usually when
The was the quietest, politest bar I’ve ever been in. There was about 12 souls inside. It was the Lord that provided this very quiet atmosphere. Even the two men getting ready to put coins into the jukebox, politely waited until I was done sharing the Gospel with the patrons. As I was sharing with
Today some Christians from our church, did another outreach in downtown Riverside. Nick, Rizzi, and myself preached out into the open-air. We also distributed Gospel tracts, and engaged in ‘one on one’ conversations. During my message, the Riverside police were called out to silence us. The man that called (whom later advised he works for
Today I preached, and cried out, in front of this nude bar. I was present no longer than 30 minutes. Thou they may not understand it yet. Nevertheless, what was “harassing” these folks, was the Sword of His Spirit. An interesting observation, was they had a large male bouncer walking in and out of that
The fallacy of taking Matthew 12:19 out of context; Jesus never opposed open-air street preaching by Bill Rhetts Many of those that oppose open-air preaching, will attempt to use Matthew 12:19, to imply that Jesus would not have preached out in the open air, or the streets. The problem is, they are either intentionally, and/or
Back on August 9th, 2013, I posted a blog post/video about how Springfield Missouri police officers have singled out a Street Preacher, including confiscating his equipment. Last Friday the same open-air preacher, Pastor Aaron Brummitt of Lighthouse Ana Baptist Church was arrested for street preaching. Additionally Erica Parker, and another unknown member of his church were
The following is in response to some Facebook comments that we receive. Many Christians often ask regarding our outreaches, “what were your results?” Or, they will ask questions like, “Did anyone accept Jesus into their heart? Or, “did anyone make any decisions?” We do not partake in that type of evangelism. Because it would be
I don’t have the time to keep up with these arrests. You may remember earlier this year, Larry Craft was arrested while preaching outside the ‘Masters Golf Tournament,’ in Augusta, GA. Craft was then prosecuted in the criminal courts. The jurors in his criminal trial, found him “not guilty.” Some men spend their time trying
The Lord pressed it on my heart, to not be so solely concerned about large crowds for my open-air preaching. But to also reach-out to those ‘individuals,’ that others would not. I then began thinking and praying about all the locations, I’ve investigated as an LAPD undercover VICE Cop. One of the many VICE’s I’ve
Kevin Farrer of ‘Cry to God’ Ministries, is standing ‘on the box’ preaching. He is on the Southeast corner of West Angela St, and Main St, in the city of Pleasanton. For about 14 minutes, Kevin is crying out, giving his testimony, and pleading for others to be saved. In the below video (which I
Today I preached at a couple places in Riverside. While I was walking downtown (heading for the outdoor lunch crowd,) I then saw this monument. I was heading to the other location, with a pre-planned, pre-printed sermon, but the Lord showed me this. I then sat down praying that the Lord would give me the
Today three others and myself went to San Bernardino High School to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ into the Open-Air. Glory to God, His grace paved the way for the spreading of His Gospel to hundreds of students. The City of San Bernardino has the third highest murder rate (per capita) in this Nation,
Today I distributed many Gospel tracts at different locations, and preached a couple sermons. The below video is from my last stop. Please pray for this young man ‘Nick.’ I would have spent more time with Nick, but he needed to go. Also, please pray for all the others that heard the Gospel, as they were
