Wheeling, West Virginia
blue sky nine is on the campus of West Liberty State College out in Wheeling, West Virginia!
We have a concert tonight out on their main quad at 7p.m. Please pray our concert! Pray that people would come to our show, and that God would plant seeds in people's hearts as they hear the gospel.
So far as I've been told, a lot of the students here are fairly young Christians, so many of them have not had a lot of experience sharing their faith. We're going to have lunch with the students around 1:30p.m. to get to know them and encourage them to share their faith with others. Pray for our time together.
Tomorrow night, at 7p.m., we're playing at West Virginia-Wesleyan University in Buckhannon, West Virginia.
Both concerts should be fully evangelistic so please pray for Teresa as she shares the gospel, and also for boldness in our individual witness as we each go out and share with others as well!
Thanks friends!

On a side note, hearing about Steve Irwin's (the "Crocodile Hunter") death was very sad news yesterday...I was definitely grieved by his death. And I was even more grieved by the fact that his daughter was actually with him when he was stung by the sting ray. I can't imagine what that was like for her. He's left behind a wife and kids...what a tragic way to go...he will be sorely missed.
My prayer is that as people around the world watch the news and hear the headlines, that they would think about life and the inevitability of their death that they will face one day as well. I don't pray for this in a morbid sense, but in a sobering sense, to think about their faith in God and where they stand in their relationship with Him.
May we, as believers, also "check our hearts" today and do some soul searching about our own lives and where we will be spending eternity. May we also take time to reflect on those loved ones who we know, as of right now, would not be spending their eternity with God if they were to die today, and to say a prayer for them to come to know Jesus Christ.
If any of you are interested, here's an interesting article with a faith perspective on the death of Steve Irwin from the Answers in Genesis website. I enjoyed most of it, though it was a bit long-winded towards the end. In any case, I thought you might like it. Enjoy!
