Here we go...

I've decided to jump into the modern world and share my thoughts, experiences and stories with, well I guess pretty much everyone.

As most of you know Scottie and I hit the streets of Dallas every week "fishing for lost souls". Most of the time we are accompanied by our God given friends. Our main goal is to share the love of Christ with those that, for the most part, are cast aways in society. We go searching for the homeless. We started last summer just going to Austin Street shelter in downtown Dallas and we've made many friends there. For the past month or so we've been going deep into the cities dark streets to find those who are not sheltered.

Since it's been cold we've been handing out hot chocolate and coffee along with our usual snack of packaged crackers. We also hand out cough drops and give cough medicine to those that are coughing so badly it sounds like they could choke at any moment.

This blog is mainly for me to keep my days straight and remember all the amazing things God is doing, to us and through us. I will try to post a recap of each trip.

I hope you're touched by God and slapped by reality when you read these posts. These are real stories about real people being effected by a very real God.

With much love,
