Banners Unfurled: Street Preaching and Street Preachers
Banners Unfurled

Banners Unfurled - Street Preaching on Beale Street

Banners Unfurled is a ministry for street preachers and those that want to know about street preaching. At this site you will find current street preaching accounts as well as excerpts from historical documents on the street preaching activities of preachers belonging to the Christian Hall of Fame. You can also view our newsletters, which have articles about our evangelistic activities, street preaching outreaches, as well as doctrinal issues arising from public ministry. You don’t need to be an ordained or licensed preacher to street preach; you only need the desire, some well-memorized verses, and a little helpful knowledge to get started. We believe God wants open-air evangelists, street preachers and personal workers on the public streets of the world and that banners are tools to make your presence seen as well as heard.

We would like to encourage you to read our newsletters. Not only do they record some of our street preaching experiences but also most of the letters includes an account of a street preacher's experience from the past. You will be fired up to stand up above the people (2 Chronicles 24:20) and lift up your voice like a trumpet (Isaiah 58:1) to let this world know that God still cares.

For several years our dear brother David Hance and his family in Rochester, NY have faithfully helped this minstry produce and distribute banners. These banners are now in use all over the world and according to some have made a tremendous difference in their evangelistic efforts. Bro. Hance is now in a major battle with lymphoma. It is our turn to be a blessing and help him. Please be in much prayer for Bro. Dave and his wife, Kelly, and son Michael, who is still at home. He has not been able to work for some time. If you would like to write him or help them financially, his address is: Dave Hance 5898 Shelt Ave. Byron, NY 14422

BEALE STREET BLAST
MAY 1 - MAY 4, 2008

The BEALE STREET BLAST is a teaching event sponsored by Banners Unfurled, Bro. Ken Lansing, New Hope Baptist Church, Bro. Steve Matheson, Millington, TN, Grace Bible Baptist Church, Bro. Jerry Hickson, Halls TN, Bible Baptist Church, Bro. Dennis Black, Bolivar, TN and Bible Baptist Church, Ken McFadden, Searcy, AR.

Our goal is to train and equip Christians who want to learn public evangelism using banners as a tool to draw people’s attention.

The BLAST is a high intensity weekend conference filled with soul stirring singing and preaching, and breakouts with various topics of instruction you can choose from all led by seasoned street preachers that have at least 100 years of experience between them. The highlight of the weekend though is taking what you’ve learned and spending 7-10 hours on the street preaching and witnessing to a crowd of 100,000 at the Beale Street Music Festival.

The entire event is to help you learn how to communicate the gospel boldly, effectively and lovingly in a public setting.

This is a weekend that will change your life and that of your church. The entire weekend is reasonably priced.

Publick Ministry, a great street preaching site by Bro. Gerald Sutek.

Revival Needed Ministries , the Lyman family travels around America streetpreaching.

Mormons - Mountain Meadows Massacre, contains some savage history of this cult.

The Do/Done Home Page, a ministry of Carr Township Baptist Church, Borden, Indiana, has a number of articles about Roman Catholicism and more...but watch out for an article entitled 'IF' which I have taken issue over.

Street Preaching has some useful pages to read and some pictures.

A Time of Health As christians, we want to be as useful to the Lord as possible. This means that we need to have good health. God is ultimately in control, but He allows us either to be destructive to our bodies or to be wise. Hugh Pyle says in his booklet, How To Be Healthy, Wealthy and Wise, "Some illnesses we bring upon ourselves, some are thrust upon us by the enemy, some are given unto us as a 'thorn' to make us better, and some we encounter through nothing that is explainable until we have lived long enough to blame it on old age! Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit. It is most wise to take good care of the only body we'll ever have in this life. An ounce of prevention, is, indeed, worth a pound of cure."

When Frieda had cancer 5 1/2 years ago, she searched for several months to figure our the best way to help her health. Of course eating lots of fruits, vegetables and whole grains and staying physically active is very important as well as dealing with stress. But it is just impossible to get everything that you need from diet. First of all, we don't follow through on our intentions to eat as well as we should and second, the food is depleted of nutrients in this day and age. After much research, we found what we believe to be the best supplements for several reasons. The company is almost fifty years old, they have alot of scientific research behind their products and everything in them is from the human food chain. In other words, coal tar and pne bark are both natural but we didn't eat them for supper last night and don't intend to tonight either, yet they are components of a lot of health food products.

Frieda has survived cancer thus far, my triglycerides have dropped from 261 to 51 and my overall cholesterol dropped a hundred points. Frieda's night blindness has greatly improved as well as arthritis pains and we have seen many other people's health problems greatly improved. If you are struggling with your health and want some answers, we invite you to go to our web site and study it. There is a wealth of information there. Are the products cheap? NO, but you are going to get what you pay for. If any health supplements are going to help, we believe these will. You can save 25% with a one-time life membership of $49.00 which is well worth it. Christians, of all people, should strive to discipline ourselves and do what we can to honor God by taking care of our bodies.
