Greetings!
I am writing this week to let you know that we have a problem. Our garage is full. Much of it is evangelism resources. These resources are sitting in boxes. They do no good there. We need to get them out to you to be used. We have some resources for you to give to the lost. We have other resources to equip you in your sharing of the Gospel. Please consider requesting some of these resources so that we can clean out our garage. Thanks!
Our new Valentine Tract is here. These will be featured in the February mailing of the Bezeugen Tract Club. If you are not already enrolled in the Bezeugen Tract Club, why not enroll today and get a supply of tracts from us each month.
We have an Evangelism Seminar scheduled for next Thursday, January 21st in Carrollton, Texas. Please register online.

Witnessing Encounters
This week Todd and I witnessed at the mall to two people who claimed to be "born Christian." We explained to them that it is impossible to be born a Christian. We explained how Ephesians 2 says that we are all born spiritually dead and are enemies of God. They listened intently and we shared the true Biblical Gospel with them. Please keep in mind that just because someone says they are a Christian, does not mean they are. Think of it this way. If your neighbor tells you they are on the PTA board at their kids school, it would be reasonable that they could tell you how they became a board member. The same applies to the company of Christ. A true believe should be able to tell you how to become a Christian: through repentance of their sins and trust in Jesus Christ alone. Mark 1:15.
Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to go to Oklahoma to visit my mom and help her around the house. On Saturday, night I went to Oklahoma City and met up with Brady (AA #10), Adam (AA #10), Shane (Scheduled for AA #14 with his wife in April) and John. We preached the Law and the Gospel and handed out over 1000 tracts in the freezing cold! Please read about our time on the streets in the BLOG titled Thunder and Brrrrr.
These events were great. I'd like to invite you to join us for any future events. If you are interested, send me an email and I'll keep you posted of where we will be.
I want to take a moment to remind you of the "As You Go" concept. Yes, the events are great. I love them. However, I'd like to share with you now about putting gas in my car the other night. I needed to run an errand. Mande asked me to put gas in her car for her. So I took the Odyssey. When I got to the gas station, there was a man at the next pump. I had a brief discussion with him and then handed him a tract and said, "here is something to read while you wait." He said thanks and took the tract. When he looked at it he commented that he would give it to his daughter. We had a brief discussion. He is a believer and so is his daughter. He just thought she would be interested in seeing it. In the meantime, a man pulled up to the other pump in the island. So I handed him a tract. He said thanks. By then my gas was done pumping. I put a tract into the slot for the credit card, got my receipt and was on my way.
You can do it too! As You Go!
If you need some tracts, then please enroll in the Bezeugen Tract Club. If you want Valentines tracts from us, then you must enroll my Monday, January 18.

Memory Verse
I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul makes its boast in the Lord; let the humble hear and be glad.
Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together!
