When I read the New Testament, I am encouraged and inspired by the way the early church lived on mission together to seek and save that which is lost. They embodied love for each other, love for God and love for their neighbor. I want to urge you and your community with all my heart to take hold of this mission to reach your cities with the message of Jesus. What does this mission look like for you?

When Jesus healed the demon-possessed man, he urged him to return home and “declare how much God has done for him”. And, when the woman at the well had an encounter with Jesus in Samaria, she left her water jar and went away into town to tell the people about Jesus the Messiah. If you have had an encounter with the Living God as they did, you can’t but respond as these two people did. Do you live this way now?

And, you will receive power from on high to be his witness in your workplace, neighborhood, city and beyond. For many of us, we don’t live with this power. But, God wants you to ask him for this power more than ever, no matter whether you’re a pastor, missionary, businessman, teacher, college student, barista at starbucks, whatever you do, etc. I encourage you to lay hands on each other and ask for the Holy Spirit to fill you up with his power to be a bold witness in word and deed. He is faithful to do this so your ministry will go in power. What does this ministry look like to you?

God wants to send you and others in your life out as ministers to proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom, to cast out demons in the Name of Jesus, to heal the sick in the Name of Jesus, to feed and care for the poor and broken, and to do even more than Jesus did. Can you imagine now what this power will look like?

This is exactly the power we see from Jesus, the disciples, the early church, etc. I have to share with you how I was personally awakened to the healing power of God a few months ago. I had suffered from acid reflux for many years of my life and was especially bothered by it after having mexican and italian food, two of my favorite food groups! During a christian conference here in Arizona, I asked two people to lay hands on me and they began to pray against any powers of darkness that were controlling my acid reflux and asked God to heal me in the Name of Jesus. As a result, I have not had any form of acid reflux since this prayer. God is a healer because by his stripes we are healed!

Here is another testimony to the power of God. I started sharing the Gospel with a college student at a bus stop here in Tempe and felt a lot of resistance from him. The next thing that happened to me amazed me. I said to him in confidence, “I command any spirits to leave right now in the Name of Jesus of Nazareth.” At that instant, he became open to the message of Jesus and the Good News of the Kingdom. This is an amazing tool I hadn’t really used before, but God has shown me the authority we have in the Name of Jesus. Have you ever thought to use this with people that seem very resistant to the Gospel?There are demonic spirits that would love to continue to blind our friends and family to the truth of the Good News. You and I have authority in the Name of Jesus to take down these strongholds in their lives.

I don’t know why I doubted the power of God! For so much of my life I have missed seeing and hearing these God-stories in my life. I don’t know if I only had a religious spirit that kept me from seeing this or if I just was not hanging out in the right circles of people. But, now God is breaking down the religious spirit I had put up and I am surrounding myself with people who love Jesus, have intimacy with the Holy Spirit like you wouldn’t believe, and have faith in the power of God to heal and cast out demonic spirits.

If you are open to what I am sharing, I want to join you on this journey and offer any encouragement or tools that will disciple you into living radically in the Name of Jesus. I do not claim to have all the answers or to be the most qualified for this, but I want to be faithful to the knowledge I now have and follow God’s heart to reach every city with the message of Jesus in power.

I would love to sit down with you over these issues, spend time praying with you over the unreached people and city God has burdened your heart for, and even go out two-by-two with you, as Jesus commanded his disciples, to reach your city for Jesus! As God stirs your heart, I’ve included a short training manual to help you along because it has encouraged me in this process:

DOWNLOAD THE TRAINING MANUAL TO GET STARTED

As you read this manual, would you ask God to show you what your next steps should be?

People in your life may discourage you from living this way and many unbelievers will be offended by this radical message that Jesus is Lord. You may even encounter religious people who will not understand what it means to live with this power, but please don’t be discouraged. We are called to follow the way of Jesus and the truth of the Scriptures, faithfully sharing and living out this message. And as persecution ensues, we can take heart because Jesus told us to rejoice and be glad, for our reward will be great in heaven. Paul even said, “For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecution, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong”.

Life is but a mist and we only have a short time to live on this earth. What do you want to be known for? What do you want to live for? Please consider the joy of this call and the urgency of the time we are in. I also want to ask for your prayers, that the Father would guide my steps and that the Holy Spirit would stir many hearts with this letter to take extreme action. And, If you are already taking action, I want to hear how God is moving in your life and what he may be already doing through you.

The Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of us.

For the Fame of Jesus,
Ken

SCRIPTURE

“We cannot but speak about what we have seen and heard.” -Acts 4:20

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed.” -Luke 4:18

“He that believes in me will also do the works that I do and greater.” John 14:12.

QUOTE

“Jesus did not come to start a religion, He came to bring freedom! He came to destroy the works of the devil. He did this by healing the sick, casting out demons, setting people free from the oppression of the devil, and becoming the sacrifice for our sin. He told His followers to leave everything and follow Him and commanded them to continue his work until he returns. Often the people that need freedom the most get it the least - outside church buildings: streets, homeless, poor neighbourhoods, hospitals, emergency rooms, homosexual communities, abortion clinics, countries and remote villages where the living conditions are rough and persecution is strong.” - Fabian of Freedomtocaptives.com

I am already in London, waiting for the outreach to start this coming Saturday! I can’t begin to tell you all God has done already to show his provision! Here’s a taste…

So, I was in need of a sleeping bag for my trip, and planned on either getting one when I arrived here in London or just sleeping on the floor, honestly As I walking the streets of London (Notting Hill to be exact if you’ve see the movie), I was starting conversations with all sorts of people passing by me. After having a conversation with a young guy passing out flyers, I said hi to this group of 4 high school girls. I asked them if they believed in God and turns out they were all christians. We talked for a little while about the power of God and as we were saying goodbye, they asked me if I wanted a sleeping bag. Apparently they randomly were carrying it and wanted to get rid of it. God is funny and good, showing me that he knows my every need, big and small. I hope this encourages you.

So, if you want to read more stories like this over the next two weeks, I’ve set up a twitter page which allows you to follow my every move…I know you were just thinking that! Anyway, I hope these stories encourage you throughout the day, knowing we serve a huge and radical GOD.

Jesus is both Lord and Christ! May the Lord Jesus bless you today.

Here is a picture of my twitter page and the stories already!

The muslims I met in London are so passionate and I love them for that. I wish more Christians would experience what I did in Speakers Corner Hyde Park, being surrounded by multiple muslims explaining Jesus Christ and Him Crucified.

Paul writes to the church in Corinth (1 Cor 15) that if Jesus was not crucified and raised from the dead, than we as followers of Jesus are to be pitied, are misrepresenting God, and are still in our sins. I find this so important to understand when you talk to muslims because they have taken away the power of the Gospel by saying that Jesus didn’t actual die on a cross but was taken up to heaven and replaced with Judas Iscariot.

I let muslims get away with saying this when I was in London, but I know more than ever to not back down from this point. Jesus Christ clearly was crucified, died, and rose again from the dead, presenting himself to 100s of eyewitnesses over many days before ascending into heaven. I pray many muslims will come to see that Jesus did this and his blood can take away each of our transgressions by his perfect sacrifice. Then, they can know that eternal life is in their grasp by believing in the Son of God, who became the Lamb that was slain to take away the sins of the world.

Thank you for the Cross Jesus. Your Love on Display. Eternity in Reach.

Thank you Lord and Savior,

Ken

Summer is over. Schools are back in session. And, people still need to hear about the Good News of the Kingdom of God. 

I’m currently in Tempe, AZ building relationships with students at ASU right now. While I’m here, I’m trying to make the most of the opportunities before me to engage students on the meaning of life, their views on eternal life, and ultimately how they see Jesus. 

Would you pray with me that God directs my next steps and vision for ministry? 

May the Name of Jesus be lifted high in all we do and say. 
For Jesus,
Ken

His Kingdom is not of this world. His Love was demonstrated through suffering not conquering.

I want you to see the beauty of King Jesus. 

He is the Lamb that was slain for sins of the world. He desires all men and women to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 

Do you believe in King Jesus? Do you follow King Jesus?

Paul talked about another King than Caesar when he visited the city of Thessalonica in Acts 17.

His Name is Jesus.

He is to be worshipped, treasured, adored, followed. 

If you claim to be a Christian, but don’t have this view of Jesus and have not made Jesus your King, then I’m sorry to say that you are missing the worth of King Jesus and may not be saved at all.

If you could care less about religion and are apathetic about eternal things, I ask you to consider that you are giving worth to something in your life, and missing out on the beauty of following King Jesus.

It’s all about King Jesus. He made the world and everything in it. He is the exact representation of the living God. He is going to judge the world in righteousness someday. 

King Jesus. Period. 

We invited the Holy Spirit to come and comfort us, to lead us into the truth of this Perfect Love, to pour out more onto us. 

We found ourselves full of Joy, laughing, crying at times, thankful for the answer to our prayers. 

The next day, Monday Morning, I had a great time with Jesus, which led me to be filled with boldness as I walked onto ASU’s campus. 

As I was riding my bike, I started shouting “Jesus is Lord”, “Jesus is Lord” again and again. A few Christians replied back in agreement but most of the responses were silence. Apathy all around me as students walked to and from classes. Why God? Why can’t these students be like my muslim friends in London who would scream back at me that Jesus was not Lord with great passion. No, in America, there is much apathy and this spirit is quenching this generation of any life. 

Yes, they have the appearance of life when they are drunk coming and going into bars, heading to house parties. But, it’s purely a mask and facade that evil has put on this culture. They need alcohol and sex to foster this excitement. Apart from this, there is great apathy. I see it everyday in the people I talk to. 

“I don’t think about eternity”…”What are you talking about”…”No”…”Never”

These are common responses when I bring up eternal questions! 

If you are a follower of Jesus reading this, I pray this breaks your heart and causes you to get out of your chair with me and reach this lost generation. They are in need of your spiritual gifts…your encouragement, love, gentleness, passion, and much more. 

If this doesn’t break your heart, I’m concerned for you. Jesus came to seek and save that which is lost, and he had such a heart of compassion for the broken and hurting in his day. We need to ask Jesus for this same heartbeat. 

I know that I have a lot to learn and could probably learn more about how to reach this culture more effectively. I guarantee I’m doing some things wrong and other things well. But, I want to be in the fight and learn as I go. I’m asking you to join in the fight. Not out of guilt. Not out of shame. But, out of a pure desire to love Jesus and love people. 

I have seen some good fruit in the midst of the mucho apathy. One girl prayed with me to make Jesus Lord of her life that day. And another was very close but not ready to quite yet surrender. Many more now have the Gospel and Jesus on their minds, and I leave Jesus to work their journeys out for His Good. 

Let’s Fight on. More Jesus, Less of self. 

The other day, I was watching a sermon by Francis Chan from his series on the end of the world. He talked about Paul’s letter to Timothy warning him that in later times men will be lovers of self, lovers of pleasure, lovers of money, and will have a facade of godliness but denying its power. 

I had to examine my heart during this message and see how much I have been about SELF lately. Everything I have been worrying about and focusing on has been SELF, and I have had to repent and put my trust back in my King Jesus. 

As we journey together to know Jesus, may his Holy Spirit lead us to test our hearts and live RADICALLY and PASSIONATELY for KING JESUS. Let’s surround ourselves with these people, because without them, it will be a lonely and harder journey.

To spur you on, I’m including 2 quotes I found fascinating and exhilarating:

The historian D’Aubigne writes: “A great work of God is never
accomplished by the natural strength of man. It is from the dry
bones, the darkness and the dust of death, that God is pleased to
select the  instruments by means of which He designs to scatter
over the earth His light, regeneration and life.” [- D’Aubigne’s
“History of the Reformation”].

Another writer has observed: “In the various crises that have
occurred in the history of the church, men have come to the front
who have manifested a holy recklessness that astonished their
fellows. When Luther nailed his theses to the door of the cathedral
at Wittenberg, cautious men were astonished at his audacity.
When John Wesley ignored all church restrictions and religious
propriety and preached in the fields and by-ways, men declared
his reputation was ruined. So it has been in all ages. When the
religious condition of the times called for men who were willing to
sacrifice all for Christ, the demand created the supply, and there
have always been found a few who have been willing to be
regarded reckless for the Lord. An utter recklessness concerning
men’s opinions and other consequences is the only attitude that
can meet the exigencies of the present times.” [Quoted by Frank
Bartleman in “Azusa Street”, pg 46. (Also published as “Another
Wave Rolls in”). - Another brilliant book!]

This is My Desire

My desire is to share how Jesus is moving in my life and stirring me to live radically for His Kingdom. I also hope God will spur you on to lift up the Name of Jesus in your city and around the world. 

Ever since I got back from London in August, I am more resolved than ever to declare the worth of Jesus as both Lord and Christ. I also feel a strong call on my life to encourage the local Church to live as ambassadors for the Kingdom of God that display lives that represent the worth of Jesus and declare the truth of King Jesus and Him Crucified with gentleness and love. 

If you consider the worth of Jesus, he will set you free from the slavery of sin and death. You will be free indeed. Jesus is the only one that can bring us freedom. No other religion or spiritual belief. Jesus is the King of Kings. 

When I read Luke 4:43, I see the passion of Jesus:

“I must preach the Good News of the Kingdom of God to the other towns as well; for I was sent for this purpose.”

Jesus came with a great purpose, to bring His Kingdom to earth as it is in Heaven. And, he demonstrated his power over sin and death, by being raised from the dead and presenting himself to many witnesses over many days.  When Jesus ascended into Heaven to sit at the right hand of God the Father, he promised that whoever believes in Him will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit to be his witnesses. 

“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

I am excited that God desires to use us to be his witnesses in both how we live and what we say to the world around us.

We live in a great hour that God wants to use us in the Name of Jesus to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to heal the sick, and to cast out demons. 

As we seek to love each other deeply, we will show the world that we are Jesus’ disciples and they will give Glory to God. I believe that we can do this as we live as the early church did, 

“they devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles.”

I’m excited about what God has in store for me and you, as we abide in Jesus’ word to show that we truly are his disciples (John 8:31) and surrender our lives to the mission of Jesus as ministers of reconciliation to a lost and broken world. 

“If you have faith in the Son of God, you can know that you have eternal life.” (1 John 5:13)

So many people do not know that they can have eternal life and many choose to not even consider these claims. I pray that you will consider the claims that Jesus made and that the Scriptures declare that Jesus is Lord. 

“If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10)

If you are a believer or nonbeliever, thank you for reading this and considering the truths of Jesus as both Lord and Messiah.

Send me an email if you would like to discuss this further or learn together through the Holy Bible what it means to follow Jesus and not a religion. More Jesus, Less of me. 

For the Fame of Jesus,
Ken

It’s November, and I thought I’d be back in California by now, but I feel a great peace about staying in Tempe until further notice from King Jesus. 

I’m in a season of my life where I’m working with a missions agency part-time and building an internet business from home the rest of the time. I’ve been learning how to become a soccessful internet marketer, online advertiser, social media guru, etc. 

I’m also learning a lot about productivity, time management, and intimacy with Jesus. It’s definitely takes discipline to live this out well. I was so bombarded by by being busy and doing in Orange County. It’s been a refreshing year of getting away from this busyness and learning to walk with Jesus simply. 

Anyway, wanted to give a quick update in between the craziness of blogging and working on the internet.

Please keep California in your prayers, as I continue to read reports of the fires spreading from LA to Orange County. May God use these circumstances to lead many followers of Jesus there to demonstrate kindness and love to those in need and may all of us learn to throw down the idols of materialism, pride, and lust to follow the one true, living God - Jesus of Nazareth.

Ken
