What does evangelism to the LDS look like…?This year, it looked like this!How do you witness to Mormons (LDS)? You explain sin by using the Ten Commandments (lying, stealing, etc.) and then give the true Gospel - the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God in the flesh! If you want a great example on how to do that, see the link below! Ray Comfort Confronts a Mormon link: youtu.be/KAeIaeUB8Xk And if you want to understand more about what Mormons believe compared to Christianity, see the next link below. Mormonism Exposed Living Waters Link: youtu.be/UG5Ew4OnALM Though their annual Easter Pageant looks flashy and impressive, their system is just like all other man-made systems - it requires work to be saved…and that’s not the Gospel! So, that’s why we’re passionate about sharing the true Gospel to Mormons! If you think of it, please specifically pray for a Mormon named Chris. Taliah and I talked with her for a while, giving her the Gospel, and then, without realizing we had just talked with her, my husband and his friend came up and started sharing truth with her as well! Praying that day was a true wake-up call for her! The pictures above show some of the outreach we did with solid believers, as well as some of the highlights for Taliah, the park right across the street, and some evangelism at a local festival (with some super cool giant bunnies) soon after! I was so excited about how willing she was to stand and pass out Gospel tracts!! The link below is a local ministry of believers that are committed to sharing the Gospel with Mormons; they have a specific Gospel tract for Mormons that can be really helpful! Apologia Mormon Gospel Tract link: apologiachurch.com/download-mormon-tract/ Though Daniel wasn’t able to join us for some of the outreaches due to seminary studies, we were so thankful to be able to share God’s light in the midst of the darkness even through one of the busiest times of the school year! Speaking of Daniel being busy…please DON’T MISS this INCREDIBLE sermon Daniel preached for our small group!!!! 2 Contrary Ways to Live - Daniel Bruce audio link: gracebible.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/gracebible/wp-content/uploads/media/classes/smallgroupmessages/20230425SmallgroupMilesTwoContraryWaystoLivePsalm142523.mp3 or if you’d rather listen to the audio on YouTube: 2 Contrary Ways to Live - Daniel Bruce YouTube link: youtu.be/iQqchW7CMW4 Please note this is BY FAR the best sermon I think Daniel has ever preached! Please listen and comment below!! Missions - us currentlyDon’t be too freaked out…we didn’t set up that weird ritual-looking thing and this is NOT where we live, but Lord willing we definitely plan to be more “off the grid” than this hippie RV! Daniel is finishing up his second year of four next month in seminary, and after that the plan is to be missionaries to an unreached people group in Papua New Guinea! Unlike crazy Americans who have access to the truth, yet still live under ritualistic, ungodly systems like Mormonism and various New Age practices, many tribal groups in the mountains of Papua New Guinea have no access to the Bible in their language, and they don’t have any churches that teach the truth. The need is there, and they have been begging for missionaries to come for years, so that’s why we want to go! Prayers to that end appreciated! Missions - around the worldI thought this Bible translation insight was interesting. When one thinks of something “tribal”, they probably have something primitive and/or different from their culture. We talk about tribal groups often because it’s usually those groups that are isolated from the rest of the world, without the Gospel. About 1/3 of the world is still unreached. This should not be so! Speaking of that, some of our missionaries to Papua New Guinea are in the states for a while, so that’s exciting! Also, very exciting news in one of the tribes in the Finisterre Mountains! A gang that has been distressing a tribe full of godly believers (through God’s work in missionary endeavors) have come out and said they want to stop the attacks! The tribe (it’s called “Mibu”) wrote them a letter related to the Gospel, and now they want missionaries to come to them! Super exciting news…but we need more missionaries for that… :) Taliah!This is our daughter, Taliah! Here she is playing in the sand at the park and adventurously climbing the “Grand Canyon”! :) We love how ready she is for travel, new places, new people, and evangelism. She’s a huge blessing… …and she’s growing so fast! Taliah’s learningThough we definitely still save time for play, I have been SO excited to finally start doing a pre-preschool type of teaching Taliah! She loves anything active, and she’s getting to know her numbers! Counting, simple songs, talking about and listening to Scripture, and coloring are some of the many things she is learning to do! She is definitely up for a challenge, which makes learning so much fun! I’m so proud of her! Seminary highlightsDaniel’s favorite class is biblical counseling. On top of that, he has five other classes, which makes for a huge time commitment! He only has about a month left, though! Breaks are so nice because they leave time for evangelism… …and for trying to get ahead so that life is possible the rest of the year. :) My college!I have been very blessed by my college this semester specifically. You heard about oral transmission, but besides that I also have a class on biblical counseling, psychology, philosophy, field ministry, Jewish history, and the church! Instead of a normal spring break, my college actually has a “mission trip break” where various students and faulty go on mission trips! That’s a pretty cool reason for a break! I appreciate that my college is focused on sharing the Gospel around the world. What better focus could you have? Ministry Highlight - Living Waters New Gospel tract outreach!!A specific ministry I would always love to highlight is Living Waters. They are frequently up to something that’s super exciting concerning sharing the Gospel - and this special outreach is definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity! This Gospel tract is going to be passed around the world, specifically in London for the coronation of King Charles! Living Waters send out millions, yes - MILLIONS of these tracts for free…and we can’t wait to pass all ours out! Here’s the link with all the additional information: Living Waters Operation London Outreach link: livingwaters.com/london/ Now for prayer requests! Prayer RequestsHere’s a few prayer requests, just to keep it simple! The ending of seminary for the school year is definitely huge! More evangelism specifically with Mormons, even when it’s not a huge event would be great! And of course, missions is what’s normally on our minds! Thanks so much! Time is ticking! Any donations go to help us further our studies! :)
God bless!
