The Revolution for Jesus

Welcome to the sometimes funny and always exciting world of discipleship. Yes, we are that motley crew of Jesus' modern day disciples going everywhere to tell people how great Jesus is.  You might read about us in the newspaper or you might see us on TV or on DVD, but we'd still like to visit your town or city to help spread a little of God's love wherever it's needed the most.  If you'd like us to visit your city or if you know of an upcoming event that we should visit, please write us today!  Or, if you'd like to join our exciting world of discipleship in any way, shape or form, please contact us.

Our Spiritual Revolution was Born in...

the white hot fires of a personal witnessing explosion in the summer of 1968.  That little fire grew and grew and finally exploded into a worldwide wave of sharing God's love with multitudes of people everywhere, reaching out to every race and nationality on every continent. In 2007 the rebirth of The Prophet Bus mission excited us to get back out there on the road and crisscross the North American continent, talking with and praying with as many people as we could possibly reach.  Yes, our methods are sometimes unconventional, but Jesus' message and methods were sometimes also unconventional. more

You Can Help Us Change the World for Jesus!  There are many ways that you can join us.  You can join us by supporting us in prayer.  You can join us by helping us raise support for the Prophet Bus, enabling it to stay on the road 365 days a year.  You can join us by joining our Prophet Bus team, by coming and helping us spread the Gospel to all those who need it.  How do YOU want to help?  We look forward to hearing from you.

WE'D LIKE TO MEET YOU.

What to Expect on a Prophet Bus Journey
The purpose of each and every Prophet Bus trip is to go out into the highways and byways and find the lost sheep of this generation to offer them salvation by receiving Jesus as their Savior. We’ve found that the best way to win a soul to Jesus is by being able to use our Bibles as a tool and by being filled with the Holy Spirit, which gives us the extra boldness we need (Acts 1:8). If you’re planning on joining us for one of the exciting journeys that we will be taking in the Prophet Bus this year, the very best preparation you can have is familiarizing yourself with the parables that Jesus told and by learning where the important passages in the Bible are that explain salvation, the Holy Spirit, discipleship and prophecy. If you’d like us to give you some tips on where to look for these topics in the Bible, please write and we can give you a few suggestions on some parts of the Bible to study.

The Prophet Bus contains nine bunks and although the mattresses on each bunk is firm and great to sleep on, the bunk spaces do not have a lot of headroom. In any case, after a day of witnessing to people about Jesus, the beds are fairly comfortable. All the beds are fitted with clean sheets, pillows and blankets, so you don’t have to bring your own. The bus also has a mini kitchen for food preparation and a small WC (bathroom with toilet). The front of
the bus is the main meeting room, equipped with flat screen TV and DVD player for recorded programs, classes and Bible movies. The main room also has overhead baggage space – one space for each Prophet Bus member.

What to bring: A very small suitcase – or better yet, collapsible bag – as you’ll have a small area to store your clothes and toiletries. Be sure to bring a warm jacket or coat, as it’s better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. You can use your bed to store your guitar (if you have one) or other musical instrument during the day time when you’re not using it. You should also bring your Bible (a small witnessing Bible is great for personal witnessing), a small notebook, and a couple of pens. Cell phones and laptops are also great to bring if you have them. The bus is equipped with 110V outlets to charge phones and laptops.

The daily schedule on the Prophet Bus varies, depending on where we are and who we’re trying to reach with the Gospel. Generally, however, the members of the Prophet Bus go to bed later than they would at home and get up later. Mornings usually include clean-up, breakfast, musical inspiration and a Bible class for the team members. Afternoons and evenings are dedicated to personal witnessing. If we meet people during the day who would like to know more, we’ll usually
have an evening musical inspiration, Bible class and more personal witnessing.

All in all, there’s nothing that compares to an exciting Prophet Bus trip! Jesus said, “the harvest is plenteous, but the labors are few.”   Are YOU one of the laborers He was talking about? We hope that this has been a help in giving you a little idea about what to expect on the Prophet Bus!

Why the Prophet Bus?
March 20, 2009 - Why the Prophet Bus?  Because the world needs more people who are willing to get out there and spread God's love around to those who need it!  As the parties raged all around on the island, and as the throngs of college students from all over the world tried to get the most out of their Spring Break, we pressed in all the more to reach as many as we could.  After our final hours of witnessing, the sun began to set and we packed up camp and headed off on the long ride home.  After all was said and done, 137 people prayed with us to ask Jesus to come into their hearts and lives.  It was a thrilling time of personal witnessing that none of us will ever forget.  If you'd like to join us on the next Prophet Bus trip, please be sure to contact us early. We'll be looking forward to hearing from you as we continue our journey into all the world to share the Gospel with everyone.  If you can't come on the bus, but would like to send us a donation for our fuel, that'd be great too!  A 30-minute episode of this witnessing journey will be available in a few days, right here, so please stay tuned!

 

 

Prophets Go Wild Again at South Padre
March 17-18, 2009 - The weather down here is just about as perfect as it gets... warm days and with plenty of sunshine and warm nights.  That made it easy for us to want to get out there and talk with as many people as we could about the One who set us free and gave us this great life! And that "One", if you haven't already guessed, is Jesus.  We had lots of very interesting and provocative literature to pass out, including some of the old classic letters written by David Berg which are as relevant today as they were the day they were written.  We compiled them into "Strange Truths" handouts and everybody who saw them, wanted them. 
     About 25 more souls were won during the past 2 days, bringing our combined total to more than 100 people who prayed with us to open their hearts and lives to Jesus Christ!  And considering that all this was done in the atmosphere of party time, it was very amazing!  Apart from all the witnessing we're doing, we had a lot of fun too.  Here are a few shots on the beach and back at camp, where the Prophet Bus was parked.  Classes were taught, personal witnessing was the key event and lots of music went down on these days.  It was inspired to watch lives changed  in front of our very eyes, as a result of sharing of God's word  The Bible says that the angels in heaven rejoice when even one soul is saved.  There must have been lots of rejoicing in heaven today!

Going Out to Invite Them In
March 16, 2009 - Jesus told his disciples to go out into the highways and byways and invite the people to come to the feast.  And that's exactly what we did today, going out into the throngs of people to search out those who wanted to have the ultimate experience of meeting their Creator.  By the end of the day 35 people had prayed with us to receive Jesus as their Savior and we meet 24 people who are potential co-workers.  We all had a blast as we shared God's words with hundreds of college students from all over the U.S. and other countries who has congregated here for Spring Break.  At 8 pm we had an outside music feast, followed by a Bible study in the bus given by David on the main purpose of the Holy Spirit  Pictures of the day are below the You Tube screen.

Wonderful Wave of Spring Break Witnessing
March 15, 2009 - Back on the road again, this time down to South Padre Island for an exciting week of reaching out to mostly college students on their Spring Break vacations. And why does everyone still keep coming back to South Padre for their wild spring vacation?  Obviously for the fun in the sun and all the other excitement that's going on down here. We polished up the old Prophet Bus, packed up a week's worth of food, took our Bibles, Gospel tracts and guitars as 10 of us piled on the bus to hit the road at 12 midnight.  We arrived at our campground in South Padre at about 8 o'clock in the morning.  We met up with over 30 other disciples from all over Texas and organized ourselves before heading out for a night of singing and sharing our faith with everyone who was interested in hearing.  A weekend of rainy, cold weather left pretty much everyone in the mood for singing and dancing under the starry night sky.  Our mission?  Check out Mark 16:15.  Here are a few pictures from the day...
