Word of the Day - May 12, 2014
Sailor Ministry
Where I learned a new perspective.
I used to chuckle at Wild Bill for his ability to sleep through a service, but still shout AMEN! Wild Bill was a HACker among HACkers. Then I watched and listen to him witness to a group of sailors outside the base. Wild Bill spoke for 25 minutes without missing a beat. He kept the entire group engaged, answered every question. During the whole conversation, I don't think Wild Bill completed a single sentence without quoting Scripture. When finished, he did not press for a decision or prayer, but allowed each sailor to make a decision. Some accepted Christ, some did not.
I was amazed and convicted. I had never seen anything like that before. I thought - that is what soul winning is supposed to be. Nearly 20 years later, I still look at that day as a pattern for soul winning.
Wild Bill - That stinkin' HACker taught me something!
