Surprised By Joy


   
                                                  Surprised By Joy                                  

When. I met Jim, 47 years ago, in Laguna Beach, he was witnessing. I could see clearly 
 that he was sharing his faith because he had a Bible in hand  and a smile on his face . As I intended to pass by him, he said hello and began speaking to me. I was immediately intrigued by the friendly and warm introduction and his manner of sharing his  faith with me. In fact that   was the first  time I had experienced such a personal passionate expression of faith. I was a Christian already , but   was twice hooked. 
First time by the Billy Graham Crusade on   Tv 
In 1965 and Jim Davis the second time. 
Hooked by both passion and Message . 

Of the three PTA Seminars that Jim has been teaching in. Southeast Asia foe 29years , the Evangelism & Follow Up is my favorite and stirs my heart deeply every time he teaches it.  Why? Everyone is moved to deep conviction and go share their faith and those receiving Christ weep tears  of joy.   This is his Signature Seminar . His passion for soul winning remains in tact. 
Singularly , it is the  passion and love for the lost, combined with sharing Scripture  that he conveys to his class. Jim Davis is a Soul Winner. 
Last Friday we had such a Seminar and Follow Up in  Dumaguete  City with  an Outreach Concert Saturday night.  
Our Door to Door  evangelism won 67 persons to Christ . Saturday's concert outreach saw 78 respond. 
145 persons left the darkness  last Friday  and Saturday  for the Light of Life , as Jesus promised those who follow him. Heaven is celebrating !

John 8:12 "I am the Light of the World. He who follows Me will not walk in darkness , but have the light of life "   Jesus  Christ
