“The fields are white unto harvest… pray for workers for the harvest.” I love that verse. I have only in the past few years come to realize that very few teachers “rightly divide” that verse considering the simple context of it. You have no doubt heard this taught as an invitation from Jesus to raise…

#2- Wet naps at seasonal festivals. “Have you gotten your Wet Nap yet? Here is a couple. We are out showing God’s love in a practical way. No strings attached.” These are the ones soaked in a bit of alcohol so they clean dirt and grease. If you feel a particular bit of momentum around…
