SPIRITUAL TRAVELERS FIND PROPHET BUS

We woke up at about 9:00 am after a long night of sharing the wonder working words and music that Jesus has given us to everybody who came into the bus. We were especially moved to talk with a group of college students who came all the way down from Indiana University. They told us that they prayed before heading out on their adventure. They wanted it to be a spiritual journey. The amazing thing is that we also prayed before leaving our Houston base, to meet all the people who were searching for the truth. What is the truth? Jesus said: “I am the truth”. So there we were, sitting on the Prophet Bus, face to face this group of university students hungering for answers and sitting there in amazement that they found us. They said: “We sure did come to the right campground!” They parked only a 30-second walk away from the bus. They passed by, saw the signs pointing to our website and started talking to Sara at the back door. She invited them onto the bus and so began hours and hours of discussion and spiritual exchange. Some of these guys are Christians and were traveling with their Bibles, but some them had never opened their hearts to receive Jesus, until tonight. It was a thrilling experience of sharing the words from the Bible with hungry souls. All we can do is share the words that God gave us in the Bible and He and the Holy Spirit have to do the rest.

During the day, we went out to the beach, 2 by 2, searching for lost souls and looking for people who wanted to know more about Jesus. Clare sang and prayed with several people who became emotional and were very touched by the love that she showed them. They prayed with her inviting Jesus to come into their lives. We met many others and we invited them all back to the Prophet Bus for a night of music, word and fellowship.

At 8:00 pm the bus was packed out once again. We were sitting there face to face with people we had talked with during the day. Once again the music began and the Spirit started flowing. The atmosphere was electric. The Holy Spirit came down and it felt as if the Prophet Bus lifted right off the ground into another dimension. Everyone was engulfed in the Spirit. You could see the expressions on the faces of everyone on the bus as they experienced the power of unity and our love for God. Hands were raised and praises were everywhere and the music rang out.

Finally, Sebastien, 17 and David started the class. For the next hour, we heard from the Bible about the importance of sharing our faith with others – which we call witnessing. In the middle of the class, David used the TV to show one of the witnessing skits we had done at home and one of our music videos, “You Made It”. It was an inspired time and the 40 people on the bus were thrilled. It’s difficult to explain how God’s spirit moves, but we did our best to capture it all on film and you can see it for yourself on our upcoming DVD: “Prophets Gone Even More Wild: Padre Island Revisited”.

The evening ended with hours of personal talking with our visitors. Deep conversations about God and purpose in our lives continued into the wee hours of the night.
