Volume 4, Number 18

May 5, 2010

Greetings!

There are only 10 days until the 500. Have you signed up yet? Don't miss out. The goal is to take 500 evangelists to the streets of Dallas / Fort Worth on one night. This is happening on May 15th immediately following the Psalm 119 conference. The 500 is free. However, you must register to participate. Please sign up online today. There will be four venues (Sundance Square, Stockyards, Southlake Square and Dallas West End). I'll be leading the team to the West End. Please come and join us!

Previously, we made black AfterLifeCatalog t-shirts. A second run will have both white and black available. If you'd like one, read the details in the BLOG.

On Saturday, there were over 30 believers going door to door at Empowerment Christian Center in Farmers Branch. On Sunday, Pastor Ben (First Baptist Hebron) and I (along with his son David) read the Bible in the open air at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve. On Monday I preached the Gospel in the open air at the West End train station.

Last Thursday, the Dallas Mavericks played the San Antonio Spurs in game six of their playoff series. The American Airlines Center hosted a "watch party" where people could bring lawn chairs out to the Victory Plaza on the south end of the arena and watch the game on the huge HD screens that they have there. About 1000 fans came out. Brendan and I were there sharing the Gospel and handing out tracts. Please read the rest of the article in the BLOG.

Please remember to check the As You Go BLOG for updates on simple and effective ways to share your faith. Recently I added entries about sharing the Gospel without even leaving my house!

I'm scared

Reasons or excuses
Are you afraid to share the Gospel? Do you make up reasons not too? What reasons do you have? Please watch this short video. Do you relate to any of these reasons? Are they really reasons, or are they just excuses?

"Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus." Acts 4:13

The key to sharing the Gospel is not, what we know, but who we know. Notice that these men knew Jesus. Want some help overcoming these fears?

Our next Basic Evangelism Training Seminar will be a two part series held at First Baptist Hebron in Carrollton. You can register online. Dinner will be served at the church at 6PM. The seminar runs 6:30-8PM on May 19th and 26th. I hope to see you there. The As You Go series has been updated with some additional training resources. You may also like to check out the new list of Bible verse for Evangelism.

Bezeugen Tract Club

Facebook Page
Have you joined the Bezeugen Tract Club Facebook Fan page?

The June mailing is packaged and ready to go to the post office on Thursday. Due to the slow speed of bulk mail, this is done to ensure delivery to you by June 1. We hope you will enjoy the new "Gateway to the West" Gospel tract featuring interesting information about the St Louis Arch! If you want some of these new tracts, then be one of the next 35 people to enroll in the Bezeugen Tract Club!

The AfterLifeCatalog web site has a new look. This web site is advertised on the back of all of our tracts. The new look includes a short Gospel message on the front page, plus a link to "did you get one of these" which takes the viewer to a page which provides contact information for churches and ministry partners. Have you ever witnessed to someone that you wanted them to be able to get in touch with you later? Ask how you can get your church or ministry listed on our site!

Marv at One Million Tracts is offering to print any of our tracts for you. He is offering 250, 500 or 1000 of our tracts for $15, $20 and $30 respectively. Please see the announcement on the BLOG for details. Many thanks for Marv for providing this service.

We have in place the infrastructure to grow both in the US and Canada. Please refer your friends to the Bezeugen Tract Club.

Door to Door

Update!
We are in the process of developing a door hangar tract for door to door evangelism. These door hangars will have a gospel message on them as well as a coupon for a free DVD. It is our prayer that this gives us up to three opportunities to interact with the person at their home: once to hand out the door hangar, once to bring the DVD and once for follow-up. Please pray for the development of this new resource. Please also let me know if you are interested in getting started with door to door and/or using this door hangar.

Bezeugen is Allied with Living Waters Ambassadors Alliance. Therefore, if you'd like to be included in the map, then please watch Hell's Best Kept Secretand True and False Conversions and then email me telling me you agree with those teachings and that you'd like to be added to the door to door map. If you have attended the Living Waters Ambassadors Academy then you have already agreed to this teaching.

Prayer Requests
