Some cool blessings
Well today was the first time in years that I went street witnessing. Because of the nature of my work I’m not even around non-Christian people at all really. Unless I’m at a gas station, restaurant, bump into an old friend, etc. they aren’t apart of my life. Maybe online they are but in terms of week to week interaction it’s very minimal. Some would say that’s really bad but there isn’t much I can do about it. Today I went with my e-group from Vintage and headed out to Brockport, NY’s SUNY college to walk around. A little tid bit for you Christian filmmakers, that’s where The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry was shot. I passed by many shooting locations I remember seeing when it was being shot…fun stuff. It’s been a few years so it was cool to drive through again.
Overall the time was a success. We didn’t even get to share the gospel with anyone. How can it be witnessing then? Well…it was much more a success in the fact we actually went and were faithful to try. We did talk to two janitors (my group did) while we were there and got into some friendly/relatable conversation with each other. Asked if we could pray for them, they said yea “for a raise.” We laughed and headed on our way…they were all smiles. Sometimes it isn’t that you got to witness in terms of the gospel but left them with a better impression of what a Christian is like. That’s a success in my book.
When I got home it wasn’t long before I got a call from a friend who came over and we chatted about some theological stuff for a while. Pretty deep for me. I like doing that from time to time and actually mulling through things even more than I do on a day to day basis. Good times
Tomorrow I’ll be back at NFBC (old home church) to hear my buddy Garret speak. I’m excited for him, and it’ll be nice to see some church family I haven’t seen in a month or so. Can’t wait!
I launched AceWonderMovie.com yesterday and did an online blast for the film. The email list has grown significantly in the last 24hours as has the new fan page, twitter account, and page loads on the website. It’s sorta my guinea pig to see what I can do with what I have available marketing wise (when I’m starting from scratch). The results are pretty cool for me, I look forward to seeing where things are a week from now! I look forward to making another film and when the time comes doing the same for mine. You can utilize past fans and supporters and get farther ahead out of the gate than you ever were when you did your first project. Should be neat to watch it grow when that time comes.
God is doing some cool things and I look forward to the next few months…
