New Horizons

We have started several new projects to get the word of God out to the biking world using the World Wide Web. We started this last year, and God has blessed these projects in ways we never imagined.

First, we posted our ministry on Face Book and Twitter last year. God has been blessing through them, using them to get the Gospel out and letting people know who we are and what we do. If you use either one of these sites, look us up to see how God is using State-Line.

 

Second, Fred ( who does our music) wanted us to start recording our sermons and post them on our website and on I-Tunes. We started doing so 3 months ago, and now we have just found out how we can know how many people are listening to our sermons. In the first week that we checked (6 days) we had 341 downloads of our sermons; the second week we had 259 downloads.  We praise God that His Word is getting out in so many ways and using us to do it for Him.

We also use hidden web pages to do Bible studies with bikers we meet who live in other states.  For example: I met and talked with a guy from Pennsylvania back in March at Bike Week in Florida. He wanted to know why we worship on Sunday rather than Saturday, so we posted a Bible Study on a unknown website, but only he knows the address. We send documents and sermons dealing with that subject. The reason we do it this way is many people do not have fast web access and upload speed is slower than download speed. It is easier for them to listen to the sermon on line or read a Document from a web page.

We are praising God in the many ways we are getting the Gospel out. The more ways we get the Word out, the greater will be the number of  decisions for Him. (Romans 10:14)

Note

Even though SLMM is a small missionary outreach, we have been getting the Gospel to hundreds of bikers each year,  and now we are reaching them in the thousands. Please keep us in your prayers as we see God direct us in the future to reach many bikers for Christ and disciple those who are saved to grow in Christ.

One thing we have noticed is how many bikers we have discipled over the years. This seems to be the biggest part of our ministry. So far God has used us greatly in this area.

Challenge

Evangelism takes time and is hard work. Many people come and go who want to help us. We minister mostly to the Harley Davidson biking world, and I am asking you to pray and ask God to send those who would like to work with our ministry to get the Gospel out.
