We ran out of Christmas books due to demand!

Many people receive tracts, Gospels and children’s books in Newquay!

Rain, wind, hail and gospel! Our Christmas outreaches have commenced.

I have been involved in many different forms of evangelism, but the scariest method of evangelism I've engaged in is door-to-door. Whenever it comes time to go out on these outreaches, I find myself looking for excuses not to go. Perhaps the weather isn't right; maybe that old injury has flared up again. Then there is a mountain of work that needs to be done at the office. All excuses!

Every person we meet has a date with death and eternity. You may see them today, but tomorrow they may be gone. Life is short – it is here one minute gone the next. The Bible tells us that our lives are but a mist which is here for only a short time (James 4:13-14).

How do we follow-up the people we meet in the open air?

Have you ever felt like you are just wasting your time preaching the gospel in the open air? If so, let me share with you the story of a young man (who wasn't a Christian) who was greatly impacted by two open-air preachers.

Evangelistic work can sometimes be depressing. We labour hard, but we may not see much fruit. If you are feeling discouraged, then please let me encourage you with this devotional message from Mark 4:26-29.

Little by little the gospel advances. Today in Newquay many people heard the good news of Jesus Christ.

It was an extremely busy day in Newquay. We lost count of how many people heard the gospel!

The gospel returned to the streets of Truro today. Many people heard the good news of salvation.

Read about how two young men responded to the preaching of the gospel in the open-air.

The illustration that Jesus gives of evangelism being like fishing (Matthew 4:19) is certainly true. As all fishermen know, there are days when the fish are biting and there are days when there isn’t so much as a nibble. Today in St Austell it appeared that only a few nibbles occurred, yet despite the slower day, the gospel still went forth.

Day One of the Open-Air Mission outreach in Cornwall. Today, we were in St Austell, where we saw the providence of God on display.

Should Christians give thanks for their food in public?

“You don’t understand Josh! I am so passionate about evangelism, but my church isn’t. I feel like they are just pulling me down and putting out the fire within me. I’ve decided I’ll no longer go to church; I will simply go out witnessing instead.”

The Lord was very good to us today. Let’s pray that all the gospel seed would fall upon good soil and that the Father would draw many to the Lord Jesus.

It is easy to be tempted into compromise, soften our message, or engage in man-centred approaches to draw the crowd. It is easy to lower the gospel call of repentance and faith, to one of easy-believism so that we can get people to “uh-huh” to a few questions we ask them about Jesus.

It was a lively day of open-air evangelism in Newquay; we even had an atheist threaten to bomb our church.
