Blast from the Past: Academy Awards ’09—The Stand-up Preacher

| 11 Comments

In honor of the Oscars being televised to billions around the world, I thought it was the right time to re-post this video from three years ago when we used to go to the Academy Awards regularly. Security is so tight these days that you can’t get closer than a few thousand yards from the event; that’s why we stopped going. Still, we went yesterday to Hollywood Blvd, the day before the big event, and preached. (Stay tuned for that exciting story later in the week.)

Just down the street from The Academy Awards, and almost in front of the Scientology building on Hollywood Blvd., I preached to a disappointed crowd that gathered to watch the stars arrive on the red carpet. Unfortunately, the stars had already gone into the show at this time. I chose to use liberal amounts of humor to engage them and to distance myself from the “Christian haters” positioned just down the street on Sunset Blvd. Read about the very first time we attended this event in 2007 by clicking here.
