"Daytona BikeWeek 2007"


About 100,000 bikers are in Daytona Beach, Florida for the annual BikeWeek festival. Main street in Daytona Beach this week looks like a cross between NYC Times Square and Las Vegas. Its a 24/7 drunken beer fest with local girls walking the streets wearing just about nothing. Every street corner has beer stands with scantly clad girls selling the alcohol. Its a modern day version of the OT Sodom & Gomorrah. Ok, now that i have laid out for you what BikeWeek is all about, let me tell you how some very bold Christians are taking the Gospel Message of Jesus Christ to the bikers this week
 
There are four prayer/evangelism tents set-up on Main Street, there we are handing out biker Bibles and salvation tracts. The tracts are actually bike clothes with the gospel message printed on them. The Bibles have on the front cover pictures of bikers on motorcycles. We also have Christian biker key-chains and t-shirts to give away
 
So far this week, several thousand biker bibles and tracts have been handed out. Many bikers have walked into the outreach tents for prayer. Several have given their lives to Jesus Christ. Yesterday i was able to hand out over 500 salvation tracts in just a few hours. There is one believer who is walking Main street carrying a cross and handing out biker tracts. Another Christian biker has a gospel tract display set up on the back of his bike. CMA-Christian Motorcycle Assn has set up a free drink stand in one of the store fronts
 
This is the mission field Jesus would want bold Christians to go into and be a witness for the Gospel. Our Lord is looking for believers who will get out of their church buildings to go into the world and share the Good News of Jesus Christ. Ask God to give you the courage and boldness to take His Salvation message to this lost world. It is the most exciting adventure you will ever have. Winning lost souls to the Kingdom of God is the most ultimate & life-fullfilling experience any Christian believer can ever have. Jesus is calling you to leave your comfort zone and go into the world with the Gospel message. And remember, you will never be alone. He will always be right there with you. Evangelism is a partnership between you and God. The Great Commission is a calling for all believers in Jesus Christ to share the Salvation Message. Will you be the One to answer His call ?
