BEACH WITNESSING AND GYPSY NIGHT

We spent a good part of the day on the beach, having some fun in the sun and meeting all kinds of people, most of whom were very interested in hearing about Jesus and about our lifestyle of living as His fulltime disciples. The majority of the people we met had some trouble trying to figure out exactly who we are and what we are, since they relate Christianity to going to church once or twice a week, if even that much; as compared to our lifestyle of doing our best to dedicate as much time as possible to studying God's word and telling the world about Jesus. The concept of discipleship seemed to be something most of the people we met today thought only existed 2,000 years ago. The majority of the people in South Padre Island this week are college students and our talking to them provoked them to think more deeply about their own faith. Whatever you spend most of your time doing everyday is what you really believe in, right? So we challenged the people we met to simply count the hours in a single day, of how much they spend doing whatever it is that they do, to help them realize that that's what they really believe in. In other words, whatever you spend most of your time doing everyday is what you REALLY believe in. By sunset we were all back at the Prophet Bus where Andrew organized a fun "endtime" drama, followed by gypsy dancing and more personal, one on one witnessing. See you tomorrow. Here are some pictures from this exciting day.
