Tom, Marcus, Alex and I met Alan out on Mill
Ave on Saturday night. It was really crowded out there with the ASU
- U of A game going on. It took us a
while to find a place to park and we had to walk for a few blocks to get to our
usual place. We met a Wildcats fan who
asked, “Ready for what?” in response to the cross we were carrying with the
question, “Are You Ready?” on the cross bar.
I said, “Ready to stand before the Lord Jesus Christ and give an account
for your life.” Another guy said, “but
not today” as he kept on walking past. I
explained to the first one that we were talking to that 150,000 people die
every day, and we never know when death might come upon us. Most people don’t see it coming, but we are
not guaranteed another day.
He took an “Are You Good Enough To Get Into Heaven?” tract with him as
he left.
We eventually got to our spot where Alan was already handing out
tracts. There was an artist selling his
drawings there, so I talked to him for a while.
His name was Ron, I took him through the Good Person Test and we found
that he wasn’t so good when held to God’s standards.
Please keep him in prayer, he had some erroneous ideas of God, but was
willing to check out a couple of tracts I gave had given him and he said that
he would definitely read the Bible that Alan had given him earlier.
Later on, the guy who claims to be a Satanist hung around for a while
with a friend of his, attempting to disrupt Tom as he was doing some Open
Air. We had a few more really rowdy guys
who were very hateful towards the Gospel, but they didn’t hang around too
long.
Two policemen on bikes stopped nearby to talk with some guy. Apparently, things weren’t going well with
that conversation, as he turned, hiked up his pants and ran. The police tackled him to the pavement just a
few feet from where he had started from.
I’m not sure what he’d done, but he was going to jail for sure now.
The game got over as we were deciding to pack up, so it took us a while
to get out of the area through all the traffic.
We hung out at Taco Bell while waiting for the crowds to thin out before
heading home.
Soli Deo Gloria
