Game Summaries
Joshua Richards - As promised, here are the rest of the photos from the Bonnaroo Music Festival Outreach that I was not able to upload due to no cell reception. There were many mockers, and some who legitimately were sharing a false Gospel getting people to pray a sinners prayer, but there were some that stopped to just listen to the preaching. One of them I talked with briefly was named Ryan. As I talked to him, he Interrupted me so he could continue listening to the preaching. We also had I believe 2-3 Brothers who preached open air for the very first time. God was faithful as always. Pray for these dear souls!
Joshua Richards - Brother Terry preaching open air at Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, TN. Cell reception is awful at the moment, so more ministry photos coming at a later time. We had many, many one on one's, handed out hundreds of tracts and preached open air to thousands of young folks seeped in debauchery, drugs, alcohol, and heresy. Thanks be to God for His Gospel! #sfoi #evangelism
Stirling Long - Here’s a bird’s eye view of the task of Open Air Preaching at the Bonnaroo Music Festival. The authorities only allowed access to this Music Festival on certain roads. We we’re ably supported by the Pastors and congregation of “ Believers Chapel “ the Church of our organizer Brother Terry Cohea. It was wonderful to see so many men from this small congregation having a heart for the lost and wanting to fulfill the Great Commission. “And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15 NKJV
Stirling Long - Another Pride Parade this time at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester TN. There’s something amiss in our Nation when sin and debauchery is paraded with such arrogance and enthusiasm. This parade is a tiny picture of our Culture in America where a Holy Righteous God is totally absent and there is no fear of Him and His commandments are trashed or disdained by people loving their wickedness. A lifestyle where delusional thought is that it is easier to join in and belong. Holding true to the Bible instruction that we all are sinners and we love our sin. The more I go outside the church and preach the more I believe the accuracy of my bible. Romans 1 tells us that we suppress the truth of God by our unrighteousness. Forgetting what the prophet stated in Isaiah 2:12. “For the Lord of hosts will have a day of reckoning Against everyone who is proud and lofty And against everyone who is lifted up, That he may be abased.” Isaiah 2:12 NASB1995
Stirling Long - Brother John Coble - Open Air Preaching at Bonnaroo Music Festival today. Preaching how we all have broken God’s Laws. “Now we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to those who are subject to the law, so that every mouth may be shut and the whole world may become subject to God’s judgment.” Romans 3:19 CSB
Stirling Long - Brother Tim Ferguson Open Air Preaching at Bonnaroo Music Festival. Preaching the Gospel. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; God presented him to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so that he would be just and justify the one who has faith in Jesus.” Romans 3:23, 26 CSB
Stirling Long - Brother Gary Purgason Open Air Preaching at Bonnaroo Music Festival this morning. “There is an occasion for everything, and a time for every activity under heaven: a time to give birth and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to uproot; a time to kill and a time to heal; a time to tear down and a time to build;”
Ecclesiastes 3:1-3 CSB
Stirling Long - Open Air Preaching at the Bonnaroo Music Festival. Preaching the Gospel- the Good News which should be in our hearts and on our lips. “For though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or show gratitude. Instead, their thinking became worthless, and their senseless hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools” Romans 1:21-22 CSB
Stirling Long - Brother Terry Cohea Open Air Preaching at Bonnaroo Music Festival. Preaching the Gospel the Good News what Jesus Christ has done for us by His Death, Burial and Resurrection. “so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow — in heaven and on earth and under the earth —” Philippians 2:10 CSB
