Youth Worker On Fire Podcast


Jun 22, 2022

Billy and Ashley are a boy and a girl that do not know each other. They are more than a decade apart in age, lived in 2 different cities, and from 2 separate ministries I was in charge of. They both had encounters with God in different ways, but the results were similar. The way they came to know Christ was more of an encounter with Jesus Christ and less about a conventional church experience.

Jesus was about leading people to himself as he was on his way somewhere. What do you mean, you may be asking…Well, like the woman at the well, her whole community came to know Christ because of his unconventional, unacceptable conversation about water at the well. 10 diseased men called out to him, he healed them all, and only one came back to say thank you. Jesus is an “on the way” God and teacher. The best encounters with God are “on the way”. Billy and Ashley experienced this “on the way” Jesus in our ministry and I experienced these God sightings “on the way” as well.

  • My hope is that God will inspire you to see clearly His encounters in your life and ministry. 
  • You will hear about 2 lives that broke the rules, because they were more interested in knowing Jesus than doing things by tradition.
  • These stories will remind you of times that God showed up and caught you off balance, so that you would start looking for the God who still performs miracles that we seldom see coming. He is the God of Holy Surprises. He loves to give good gifts and He loves surprise parties.

Put your party hat on. Here we go….
