We worshiped outside the Chinese Theater in downtown Hollywood and shared the gospel with dozens of people. So many cool stories of people getting set free.
My personal favorite moment was an hour long conversation with some leaders from the Scientology headquarters. I had the privilege of hearing their stories and what brought them into Scientology. I found a common reason stemming from lives filled with brokenness, depression and severe fear and anxiety, most of which found their roots in lack of fascination (money and fame always end somewhere). While several people listened, we were discussing each other's concerns towards the opposite "religion." 

 

Just for fun, we sought to  demonstrate the Gospel's power by asking Holy Spirit for some prophetic insight into her life. He met it quickly and the impressions were accurate. My teammate Gabr began to ask her if the events I was hearing were correct (things like, "you felt lonely throughout high school; you really enjoy being around children"). She remained silent and welled up with tears. Seeing the opportunity, I shared the Gospel under the new light of a Living God who cares for His lost children and is beckoning them to be fascinated with Himself. Everyone around was silent. It was pretty epic. I love the way Holy Spirit enjoys shushing crowds.
Pray for Katie's heart to be mended and for grace to turn from the dead, romanticized, self-help therapy she's trapped in. There's no healing apart from that Man.
