This past week I was in Las Vegas and had the opportunity to preach with some great brothers. There is this outdoor mall type area called Fremont Street. There is an overhead canopy that plays short movies every hour. They are made to dazzle the eye, boggle the mind and blow the eardrum.
There is a lot of shopping and drinking going on down there and tons of people. It was a little tough to draw a crowd early in the night, but by 11 pm the place was hopping. I had to compete with lots of background noise, a band, Mr. Roboto, and the movies every hour. I was able to reel in a really nice crowd for about an hour. This was one of the best street meetings I think I have ever had. The crowd was really listening and there was plenty of conviction. I have never been so encouraged by so many Christians before. There were even people with beers in their hand by the end of the night saying, "AMEN!". I guess when you are in a dark place even a little light shines really really bright. Jesus said we are the light of the world, and this night I did not hide it under a bushell.
Enjoy.

Fair warning, there is some foul language and the audio quality is not that great as there is a lot background noise. This is classic shock and awe preaching, street style. Plenty of humor as well some serious Bible preaching and teaching. Even though a couple people really wanted to inflict bodily harm on me, this was a very polite crowd. When I told them I was about to say something important, they all quieted down until I finished.
I should have pictures up soon as Doug took quite a few.
