Nestled in the beautiful, rolling green hills of eastern Kentucky, is the town of Liberty and the home to Christ Tabernacle, pastored by Wayne Naylor.

I arrived on Wednesday evening and was able to enjoy a great visit with Pastor Naylor prior to the first service. Pastor Naylor has a tremendous passion for souls, and for the work of God. He took outstanding care of me throughout my time in Kentucky! He truly has a heart for ministry.

This is Ken, Wayne Naylor, and his very "cool" son Noah.

Each service was power packed with great worship, and an outstanding demonstration of the Lord.

Saturday, I had the privileged of speaking at the Global Impact Training for the Kentucky District. I was honored to meet Bro. Scott Marshall, the Kentucky District Superintendent and several other great ministers from this district. I spoke on personal evangelism, and how we are called to integrate evangelism/discipleship into our daily lives.

Evangelism is NOT an event that we put together, in an effort to "make up" for our lack of reaching out, and connecting with our communities throughout the year. Although "events" are not a negative concept, and they can serve a great purpose, attractional evangelism must never become our main evangelistic thrust. True evangelism is a lifestyle. It's what we do everyday!

My dear friend, Abdul Jamal Samad. Born in Afghanistan, and a victim of a landmine explosion near his home, Abdul lost both hands at the age of 13. Traumatized by war, and faced with death on a daily basis, Abdul never let his physical conditions, nor the tragedies of his country keep him from reaching forward. Abdul is working on a book that he desires to publish in the next 2 years. I will keep you updated on the progress of this work, and look forward to giving you a sneak preview. (I met Abdul at his employment, and we became friends almost instantly. He was in service with us two times during my stay). May God bless this man's life, and continue to lead him to a closer relationship with the One and only God!

I concluded my time with Pastor Naylor, and the tremendous folks of Christ Tabernacle on Sunday night. I find it easy to say that I eagerly anticipate our 2010 scheduled time to re-connect in the Lord!
