How to be Truly Free

This Saturday, July 6th, 2019, is the Fourth of July weekend, and I wanted to get down to the Des Moines Farmer's Market and read the Patrick Henry "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death" speech, as has become an annual tradition for us. Jesus tells us in John 8 that He alone has the power to set us free, really free, and that we need to be "made free" from our bondage and slavery to sin (John 8:31-36). I pray you know this freedom in Jesus Christ, and if not, take a listen to the message via the link below, and think seriously about Jesus Christ and your eternal soul. Contact me if you have questions.

Here is where I set up on the corner of Court and 3rd:

It was raining slightly when I got into the metro Des Moines area, but that passed and it was fine for the rest of the morning. Frank, another brother who speaks down at the Market stopped by to say hello as I was setting up, and Terry Daniel came across from his corner as well. I got to talk with Terry a little afterwards, and then Frank Chirico met me at the parking ramp and we got to have lunch together and catch up on life, etc.

Here are some shots from the corner looking south down 3rd, west on Court, and then northwest up 3rd Street, where you can see Mr. Soder's honey stand. You can't see him, but Terry is located right under the red traffic light in the 2nd picture down, looking west from my location down Court Avenue. As you look at the folks passing by, remember that all of them need Jesus Christ, and all will spend eternity somewhere, based on what they do with Jesus Christ and His message of true freedom because of what He did for us on the cross.
