This was one of my favorite missions trips I have ever taken. I had never been to NYC, and I got to go with my wife and 30 young and energetic college age students who shared Jesus’ passion for reaching lost people. I finally got some videos downloaded from my camera, so I will let them tell the story.

This is a couple of my friends, Joel and James speaking to a member of a strange Jewish cult; they believe the Messiah is on earth today and lives in Manhatten!

This is a panoramic view of Union Square Park, where we were preaching. The fields were white!

This was my favorite moment of the whole trip; My wife Wendy, who is very meek, and like a typical Minnesota Nice girl does not wish to talk about religion or politics broke the sound barrier and shared the good news. She was just going to read the scripture, but then she started to preach. The crowd was loud and obnoxious before she started…they quieted down for her gentle tone. Praise God!

This is one of my many opportunities to open air preach at Union Square Park. You really must make a plan to go to New York and share the Gospel there. This crowd was in the hundreds, all hearing the Gospel.

I will post more videos as they are uploaded. All glory to God!

This was an open air session, complete with Trivia, in which Courtney took the good Test.

This was open air with Death Trivia, which gets people thinking about death and if they are prepared to die. This is followed by Marcus taking the good test. 

This is an interview with Grace and Jenny, and I ask them about the message in the music of their favorite band. I then share the necessity of Bible reading, prayer, and evangelism in the life of a Christian.

This is an interview with Andrew, a youth Pastor. Why does he bring kids to Sonshine? What does he want to accomplish in his youth ministry? Very eye-opening. 

This is a video of Michael and Andrew. Andrew sounds like he has heard the Gospel, but he still has not found what he is looking for.

This is an interview done with four young people on the Fourth of July. See how they do naming the Ten Commandments!

I met these young ladies, Andrea and Cynthia while I was in Long Beach at the ambassador’s academy. They were celebrating the 18th birthday of Andrea, and they were willing to be interviewed on camera to talk about spiritual things. In past posts, I have talked about ‘the look’ that comes over someone when they are feeling very convicted over sin. Andrea gives that look several times in this interview. My heart breaks for these young people who are raised in the church and have no idea about what Jesus did for them and why. This is an encouragement to parents: TEACH your kids these things every day. Do not leave it up to the church. To evangelists: Even if a person says they go to church, or is a Christian, spend some time. Dig deeper. See what they really mean.

Check out this video with new pictures and a hot new soundtrack. Thanks to Fab Da Eclectic and his krew for the hot lyrics off of LAST CALL
