Guest E-vangie: A MAN NAMED DOUGLAS By Tina Brown

Douglas was a man who had a “back story.”

We all have a back story: Some of us come with a heritage of faith & faithfulness; some of us came with the testimony of God’s ability to rescue us from terrible circumstances; the latter was true of Douglas, a man who had a past that some of us could never understand or forgive. He was a three strike felon incarcerated at San Quentin until he finally arrived at a convalescent hospital with no belongings, no family, and no one to love him or take the time to share God’s love and truth.
null One day the Lord reminded me of the promise I made to Him: “I want to serve you Lord, and I know there is a convalescent home down the road where people need to hear about you; I need to do something, do something, do something!”

Fun W/Millions: EVERYWHERE! By Cyndee

Homework for our current evangelism class includes handing out a Million-dollar Gospel-Tract to one person a day, every day of the week, and posting a short E-vangie Tale about it. One student, Cyndee, has written a Tale nearly everyday. I do believe she will be a successful Seedsower. Here is one short Tale that she has written (to read more, click the “Comments” section of “What’s Your E-vangie Tale? #7, #8):

Finally, as I was getting awfully close to home, I stopped at an intersection and a couple began to cross from the left to right side. Woo hoo, they are the ones. As they got close to my driver side I called out and waved the MDBs. “Excuse me, these are for you!” The woman came over to me and I gave her two. “There’s a cool message on there, please read it.” She remained a little puzzled, but took the Millions, rejoined her mate, and they continued through the intersection as I drove away.

Today I walked around the little strip mall near work. A pizza man was making a delivery and I said, “Here’s a tip.”
