    Campaign strategy

    This entry is Part 1 of 4 in the series Room To Room Evangelism

    We start the day with prayer. It’s a battlefield we’re going into after all. My experience tagging along with an evangelistic team a few years ago revealed that we do not show up at the campuses without the right preparation – we first meet with the Lord and ask Him to go ahead of us. He is our commander-in-chief, the general leading the campaign, and through Him, we claimed the victory.

    Arriving at the campus, the team made a courtesy call at the principal’s office, and our Filipino team members from the SMCI took charge of the negotiations with the authorities, while we, the Singaporean and American ‘guests’ waited patiently.

    As soon as the go-ahead was given, the team thanked the principal and moved away to plan our next move. Pastor Mike, our platoon commander, gave the orders – ok, the two of you, cover the classrooms on the second floor of that block. You, and you, cover the ones on the first floor. The other three of you… cover the rooms in that building on the right…

    The team split up into smaller groups, and headed for their designated battle ground. Each small group or pair was made up of at least one Filipino and one foreigner (the Singaporean or American member). Me… the inquisitive observer who was not given any instructions since I wasn’t part of the crusade, made my choice quickly and hurried after Pastor Mike and the Filipina SMC worker he had partnered with.

    Are you praying for the team as they start another week of campaign in Bohol? It was smooth sailing a few years ago, but opposition and hindrances can happen at every turn. Sometimes the workers are attacked directly, with illnesses, or accidents; sometimes the college authorities made things difficult and placed road-blocks in their paths. Anything can happen! We can only go forth on our knees! Are you praying??

    Over the last week I was privileged to take a couple trips to other places of interest in the northeast. As we drove across the land to our destination, I looked out upon miles and miles of well-manicured corn rows. No land is wasted; every square inch is used to grow something that is useful for living; very little if any land is left to grow just plain grass. Everything… Read More....

    HE THAT DRINKS OF THE WATER THAT I GIVE HIM SHALL NEVER THIRST AGAIN!!! HEY!!!

    That is my freedom! What is this searching in my life? What is this restlessness? What is this thirsting for something more? Jesus is all that I need.

    I had a good last-time with Class A on Thursday. We played Jeopardy with a review of things we had studied. They make everything fun and hilarious!!! It’s hard to explain it – just little actions like J & M slapping the desk (part of the game) to answer at the exact same time. I can’t even remember the super-funny thing we were laughing about. It was so cute! So… Read More....
