One of the very first things I was told in preparation for my first trip to India was to always be prepared to share the Gospel. These are a few pictures of one evening that after working on cementing the wall (on the land for the Crosspoint of India future children's home), my team had an opportunity to sit down with the construction workers and flat-out share the good news of Jesus.
December 2008, my team was asked to tell the workers of the 'good news' that we have and to sing a worship song to help prove our point. One team member told the story of the salvation of men from Genesis, with the fall, to Revelation, and the 2nd coming of Christ. He stated it all so plainly that the men, who had probably never heard any portion of the Bible, could understand it all. We then sang the song "Mighty to Save" (by Hillsong) with our one acoustic guitar. Those few moments are forever ingrained in my mind.
We didn't have a huge revival among the workers, no one gave their life to Christ, and from the looks of it, nothing really happened BUT I know that God was working in their hearts. I don't know all the results from what was said that day but I'm believing that the seed was planted. Also each of us that sat there that day learned a valuable lesson. By being prepared and willing to share the Gospel at anytime, lives can be changed, destinies altered, and our own perspectives shifted.
