Taking Jesus To The Homeless
After being brought up in a Christian home, going astray and ending up in prison, Jack got what he says is a wake-up call to return to Jesus. He went full circle, gave his heart back to Jesus and returned to his Christian family and roots… just like the prodigal son. Jack confessed,
God turned me completely around,
gave me a new start, a Christian wife, and a good life.
This led me to want to help the homeless and poor.
Jack decided to keep what he is doing private… between himself and God. He didn’t even tell his wife for a long time. He takes food and Gospels to the homeless he sees on the streets. He takes the time to talk about Jesus to those who are down and out in life. He shares his past life, struggles, and how he too was homeless with nothing.
Once each person sees that Jack understands
their life and struggles from his own experience,
he tells them that there is light at the end of the tunnel… Jesus.
The Gospel of John is small and simple so these homeless folks Jack spends time with can understand God cares about them, not throw the Gospel book away and take Jesus into their hearts and lives.
