This is definitely a work for the glory of God! Keep up the Good Work, and thanks for the updates, Even though I'm not American, It makes me happy to see someone be an example to all those in America who need Christ.
I read a post on here where a guy doesn't understand why you are doing this. Didn't that happen to some guy a long time ago who built a boat in the desert? If God says do it then just do it. May god bless you and keep you Daniel. Let us always give Him the glory.
It's such a pleasure to watch you move across the country spreading the Word of God and the hope of the Savior. God bless you and keep you save always. That promise for a promise for a place to sleep and a hot meal still stands when you get this way.
"I'm also not looking for answers, you see.....I have the answer".
What a great line.
With that beard growing, I see you like Forrest Gump when he was jogging with a crowd following him. Remember when Forrest stopped jogging and one of the leaders of the crowd asked him "what do we do now?" and he didn't know what to say? Well, I'm betting my life you will have life a changing reply. Keep it up.
Daniel: I'm trying to understand how you're witnessing to people when most of the walking you do is probably through areas where there's no-one around for several miles until you get into a small town or city. Then once you get to a city, what do you do? Stop and talk to people? It seems like you could reach more people in your home town than you could going about it the way you are - unless you're doing it partly for the adventure??? I don't know. How many miles a day do you walk? Stay safe.
While I am witnessing to people as I go, I'm also aiming for the big picture. Walking across America is quite the publicity stunt so, overall, I'm bringing awareness to the Gospel as well as I can.
I encounter people everywhere I go and, for me, I think of it as 'on the job' training. It's an exciting 'walk of faith' that is helping me to grow as a witness while also reaching as many people as I can.
Yea, but Mormon's & JW's go door-to-door. I'm not trying 2BA wet blanket; just trying 2B practical in my thinking. Seems 2me that fewer people will be reached walking across America talking 2them whenever you run N2 someone than you could if you did outreaches in your home town, & you wouldn't be sleeping in a tent on the side of freeways. It seems like there's more efficient ways to spread the Gospel, & reach more people than they way you're going about it - like the way Jesse Morrell does it.
Right. I agree. But like I said, it seems that less people will be reached walking through miles and miles of nothing than if you were at home engaging large crowds...and you wouldn't be living like a homeless person either and freezing your rear end off. I'm not trying to discourage you, Daniel. I'm just trying to be realistic and practical. I pray God keeps you safe - and warm.
I understand what you're saying. Crowds are easier in a sense. When you're in front of a crowd, you start 2B an entertainer & a performer. It's less personal becuz all UC see is the crowd, not the individuals. I think that's what you're saying.
But couldn't you accomplish the same thing (one on one encounters) in your home town? People there need Jesus as much as people on the other side of the country, right? ...aaannnd...you would be sleeping in your own bed at night, not by a freeway.
"A little smellier" - LoL. I'll send you some deodorant & wet wipes.
WotM doesn't walk across America. They have specific target audiences. They go where the people are - where they know their time will be used most effieciently & will be most effective. I think you would reach just as many people at home, Daniel. There must be some other reason you're doing this. Maybe for adventure? Maybe 2C if you can walk across America? 2C the country? I don't know. It doesn't make sense to me.
It's somewhat of a 'publicity stunt for God', if you will.
Chances are, more people will stumble across one of my videos, newspaper articles or interviews than I could ever hope to meet up with in one on one ministry.
Other than reaching a lost and dying world, I would have no other reason to ever want to walk across the country.
I think you should have just stayed home and maybe juggled balls standing on your head while preaching in your underwear. That would be a good publicity stunt for stunt, and would attract alot of attention.
Haha, very funny! You wanted a publicity stunt, didn't ya? I thought that would get lots of publicity - preaching in your underwear standing on your head...unless....you don't wear undewear??? LoL. Yea...then that wouldn't be a good idea.
Love for Christ rarely have make sense to people without Christ Friend.. To Christians were inspired when other look on asking Why? Great Video.. God Bless
I don't understand what you're saying, but I'm a born-again Christian. I just don't think walking across the country makes sense to me, and I already explained my reasons. Read my previous comments. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has raised the same questions.
Just cause you don't understand doesn't mean it's wrong. God uses our gifts to spread his good news! It's not a numbers game or about effiencency! Besides Daniel doesn'tsave anyone, the spirit does that job. It's probably more efficient to send an angel to die for our sins rather than his own son, but that's not the point!
Huh? An angel could not have died for our sins since angels are not God. I never said what Daniel was doing was wrong. I just said it didn't make sense to me to walk through miles and miles of nothing if your goal is to reach people for Christ. I guess he can preach to the trees and the cows? Hahahaha. I see I offended someone today. Yeeeeaaaah! LoL.
Ok I wasn't sure I guess the Lord haves some do different thing's for reasons.. His thought aren't our thoughts his ways aren't our ways after all.. God Bless bud..

I walk about 15 or so miles a day, on average.

FireThunderTV 2 years ago
Of course, there's tons of ways to go out and spread the Gospel.
For now, this is the way I'm doing it.
Once I'm done with the walk, then I'll continue to reach out wherever God chooses for me to live.
Preaching to the lost is not a one time event.
It's a lifestyle.
And, it's one that I'm hoping to get better at, which is one of the benefits of this trip.

FireThunderTV 2 years ago
Truthfully, I have what you would call a 'big crowd' tendency. It's much easier for me to talk to a crowd than it is to talk to one person at a time.
So, by doing this, I'm forcing myself to overcome that and learn to be effective with one on one encounters.
I'm talking to at least one person every day and, in most cases, it's a lot more than that.
But, I'm learning to engage 'individuals'.
Crowds are too easy. I don't have to be REAL with a crowd but, individually, I don't have a choice.
theTRUTHgroup 2 years ago
I understand what you're saying. Crowds are easier in a sense. When you're in front of a crowd, you start 2B an entertainer & a performer. It's less personal becuz all UC see is the crowd, not the individuals. I think that's what you're saying.

"But couldn't you accomplish the same thing in your home town?"
Of course. That's the point.
Hopefully, all of the Christians who tune in and see this will be encouraged to do the same thing in their neighborhood, school, office, etc...
I'm bringing 'personal ministry' to a nationwide media audience, pretty much like what Way of the Master does. (except I'm a little smellier)
