This message comes from some observations I had about a week ago. My wife Susan and I went to the Walworth County Fair on the Thursday before Labor Day. As we were walking around checking out the fair we came across an unusual display. This display was of a motorcycle that had been used for artistic purposes. The gentleman had it painted in the life of our Lord Jesus. Many different parts of His ministry were painted to draw an image of Him. From being baptized to the crucifixion and even a helmet that was done in a display of Heaven as described in the Bible.

The photos above are of this motorcycle. This is a well done display.

One other stand caught our attention was one for the Fellowship of Christian Farmers. They were giving away walking sticks. Just broom handles with a message. What they had done was drill a hole through them and place a string with beads on it. Each bead was symbolic of an aspect of the Bible. Like red for the blood of Jesus, white for purity and so on. All you had to do was listen to a story of each bead to get one of these. It only took about 5 minutes of our time. What a creative way to get the message out. Both of these venues were done in a creative way. They open doors that may not be there in the usual way.

In the Great Commission God tells us to go out and preach the good news to all the world. He didn’t say that we were limited to doing it in a manner of telling everyone verbally. The Message needs to get out. It doesn’t matter how as long as it is the truth. As long as it is accurate. These two are just some ways to do this. They started with ideas and took off from there. Do you have an idea? Is it an accurate way of telling the Gospel?  Is it truthful? We don’t need to be doing things in the same old way all the time. God gave us the ability to be creative. Why not use it. Its these kind of ways that will reach people that the same old ways may not. The seeds are getting planted. Some seeds that were planted before are now getting watered. Some may even be harvested in this way.

Don’t be afraid to be creative. Go out and preach the good news in a different way.

Be blessed Ken
