Spent several hours at the JBC Sportman’s Show today. Great event and lots of fun. Lots of boats, guns, fishing rods, archery equipment and nice people. Enjoyable experience being part of something so well organized and enjoyable for all who came. The goal is that 6 thousand would come in the two days it is open and that we who are part of the Jefferson Baptist Church Family as we mingle with and hang out with the people who come would plant some seeds of interest in coming to church and experiencing the reason for the joy that we have. This Sportsman’s Show is not a normal church event, but I think it will be very effective in creating a sense of good will towards church. It isn’t a churchy or religious event but one that people enjoy and have agood time at. I am consumed with and passionate about influencing people so that they are drawn to the good news of the Gospel and have a personal relationship with the God of the universe. I am praying that this event will influence many to take another step towards being a seeker of truth and God.
