“Hi, I want to thank you that I could hear you speak.  The lectures you gave for women really moved me and the No Longer Music concert touched the deepest parts of my heart.

I could never believe that God could love me – a sinner.  I could not understand Jesus’ sacrifice.  I was raped when I was 11 years old and then sexually abused for three years.  I’ve never told anyone about what happened to me.  When I was watching the No Longer Music concert, God began to release the pain that was so deep inside me.  I feel like this is the beginning of the healing of my heart. Now I know that GOD LOVES ME JUST AS I AM.

Thank you David, Jodi and Lori.

PS  I want to serve Jesus.”

We have recently been at the Slot Art Festival in Poland.  Each day Jodi and Lori Wallett ran a seminar for women and every day the room was packed and overflowing with over 100 women who came to hear them teach on different aspects of being a woman of God.  One day as they were cleaning up the room and were about to leave, Lori found this note scribbled on a piece of paper, all folded up left on a table in the room – almost like she wanted to let them know that she had been touched by God, but it was still so raw for her that she did not want to discuss it in person.

As I was reading this note, my heart went out to this young woman.  I was so thankful that David, Jodi and our  Steiger team were there at Slot, proclaiming the gospel in such a way that was fulfilling Isaiah 61 – the good news is being preached; the broken hearted were being bound up; the captives were being freed and God’s favour was proclaimed.

After the No Longer Music concert on the Saturday night, over 250 people made their way to a room to find out more about Jesus and to give their lives to him.  Every time David preached under the tree at the festival, many people came to give their hearts to Jesus.  I also talked with many people who described to me how they had committed their lives to Jesus at this festival in previous years and how their lives had been radically changed since then.

How can people say that it is too tough to preach the gospel these days, or that people do not want to hear? What I saw at Slot showed me that God only requires people who will be obedient to His call and will preach the gospel whatever the cost.  The note from this young woman showed me that it is the Holy Spirit who changes people’s hearts – all He wants is a willing vessel to work through.

For the Lost,
