Connecting with Sujo John

I had the joy of being part of a tele-conference tonight with evangelist Sujo John.  Sujo’s testimony and ministry of preaching God’s Word and story of creative redemption in the Grace of Jesus Christ is captivating and glorifying to God.

I have never been a big fan of the “tele-conference” idea – I’ve been part of several from tech/ministry related organizations and companies.  I think every time I felt like the whole purpose was just to sell me a product or a higher level of service.

Tonight’s conference call was different.  First, it was a sacrifice.  I’m in the Arbuckle mountains of southern Oklahoma and our evening service began right about the time the call was scheduled for tonight.  Second, it was prayer driven, God focused, and Kingdom inspired.  Each part of the conversation which had folks on it from all across the U.S. was covered in prayer and honest concern for the proliferation of the Gospel.

Finally, it was unique.  There was no sales pitch, no “5 easy steps” – it was an honest presentation of the amazing work Sujo is doing in countries many of us could only dream of even visiting.  The audience he commands in these nations is impressive but the message he unabashedly shares with them and the lives changed he sees can only come from the blessing of God on someone’s life.

I get a big smile on my face every time I read an update about where Sujo’s been or a crusade he’s lead that saw Muslim background people come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.  Inside my chest a feeling wells up like we might actually win this battle when I hear of people who boldly proclaim Jesus as Lord and Savior – the only final solution to humanity’s despair.

Take a moment to check out my friend Sujo John’s website – you will be blessed by his testimony and the continued blessing God has upon his ministry of taking grace to those who are desperately in need it.
