Come...and you will see

Albert McMakin had heard that a certain evangelist was in town. He persuaded his friends to go, including a 16-year-old teenager, to hear this guy speak. This teenager had no interest at all, but was persuaded to go when Albert offered him to drive his truck. As excited as most youngsters would, he agreed and probably thought this was a good trade. At the sermon, he was most captivated by the evangelist's speech. Spellbound. And he returned, night after night, to hear what this guy had to say. And he gave his life to Jesus.

Since then, over 2.5 billion people have heard him speak.Thousands of lives have been transformed.

Almost everyone, whether a Christian, an atheist or a Jew, has heard of Billy Graham, one of the most powerful crusader of our times. But have we heard of Albert McMakin who brought young Billy to come and check what the fuss was all about?

John 1:40-42
Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, "We have found the Messiah" (that is the Christ). And he brought him to Jesus.

We are not all called to be 'evangelists' or big-time 'crusaders' but we are ALL called to be 'witnesses'. The power of proclaimation is amazing. We are called to be Andrews and Albert McMakins.

Come...and you will see.
