I leave for Georgia tommorow morning. I'm flying into Atlanta. I've been given two hours to preach at an Open Air Preachers conference right outside of Atlanta, in Marietta. Information can be found at: www.officialstreetpreachers.com/Conference%202005.htmAs you will see, these are real hardcore "turn or burn" guys, but I am very grateful to have an open door to preach. Anyone in the area is invited!

November 17th-20th
The annual Open Air Preachers Conference in Georgia went great! It was my first time participating in it, as well as being a guest speaker.
I was able to preach two messages. 1. Opposed by the World. 2. Opposed by the Church. They were on the cost of open air ministry, and why both the world and the church often oppose it. I thought both messages went very well.
We were also able to minister on two campuses. The Kenneth Allstate University and Georgia State. Unfortinately a student was arrested at the K.A.U. campus for stealing one of our banners and then running from the police.
The best outreach though was a Georgia Bulldogs college footbal game. We took scripture banners and were able to stand in a position where almost the entire stadium of THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS attending the game could read the scriptures. It was wonderful!
When the game let out, we stood at the main entrance and preached. The crowds were so large that gathered that the police asked us to move back to a stage area. We did, and drew a crowd of maybe 150 students! We preached the gospel hot and strong for almost two hours.
The one2one witnessing during and after the open air preaching I think always is the best. I spoke to professing Christians who still had sin in their life, but believe I actually got through to some of them because I continually used the scriptures to answer their questions.
Overall, it was a wonderful conference. There were quite a few new people to open air ministry who fell more in love with it, and I learned a lot from some of the old veterans that were there. Praise God!

Did they record the sermons? I would like to hear all the speakers if they are available.
