Joseph, the pilot

Sharing Jesus with Billy and his mama

Olympic countdown with a future Olympian

Overlooking Hong Kong from the Intercontinental Hotel

I am so excited to be headed to the Olympics and wanted to write a few posts from time to time.

I am preaching this weekend in the Philippines and then afterwards, I will be flying to Beijing. First, I stopped in Hong Kong for just a few days, and lo and behold, on my flight over, one of the girls that I coach (on my 12 year old daughter, Kerri’s, basketball team) was on the same flight. Her father, Joseph, was the ACTUAL pilot of the 747, and he invited me up to the cockpit for a picture. I do NOT know why he wouldn’t let me fly the plane, but it was a smooth flight, and we landed safely. Last night, we ate dinner at the Intercontinental Hotel, where we enjoyed a breathtaking view overlooking the city of Hong Kong. It is a beautiful city.

I had the chance to witness to several people. The first is a boy named Billy, and GOD ORDAINED, that he and his mother would sit down next to me at a small table in a mall. We became friends. He was happy to talk to me in English. He had learned it in school, but I do NOT know if he had ever actually used it in conversation with someone from America. We talked about a lot of things and then I asked him about faith. And like so many people, actually millions upon millions, they do not have faith in God. They do not believe in God, they do not believe in heaven. They do not know Jesus or anything about Jesus.

So I asked Billy if I could take his picture and I told him that I would post it on my blog. He is a super young man and I explained to him about God’s Son, and I pray that God would use Billy one day to win millions to the Lord in Hong Kong.

Today, I will actually be flying to Manila, and then flying to a city called Iloilo and preaching in a city called Bakolod on Sunday. I hope to write more later.

I heard William Lee preached an awesome sermon this past weekend. I listened to some of it on http://www.callonjesus.com/ and told William if I wasn’t saved, I would have gotten saved after listening to his sermon.

Pray for me! That the Lord would be honored this weekend through my message.

Someone sent me this note and I thought that you might be blessed by it. Obviously it was a blessing to me. We are actually in the process of updating and creating a new look for our www.callonjesus.com website. It will have many of the same functions but I just wanted to remind you that anyone in the world with internet access can view our sermons on line.

Here is the letter I recieved.

Dear Pastor Dudley,

I wanted to tell you about somthing my wife and I started only by accident. We have some close friends that Live in Stockport, England. We visited them for the first time last year. During our visit we had showed them the church site and www.callonjesus.com….

To make a long story short , by us showing them the site, they are now faithful viewers of our church services @ www.callonjesus.com, and it doesn’t stop there.

Their home has now become somewhat of a gathering place on Sunday afternoon at 4:30 (8:30am PST) and the number of people has grown just through word of mouth sometimes and many at 10 or 12.

I am writing you to let you know how important the Streaming Video of our services has become to Gaynor Mayers, her family Tanya, Tasha and Dakota and friends that consider Shepherd their church family.

Thank you and God bless,

Isn’t that a great note? It thrills me to see how God works and moves all around the world. How about YOU???? Is there anything YOU can do to help lead others to a closer walk with Jesus? Why not start TODAY!

The Bible Experience LIVE

Written by admin on . Posted in Bible, Heart, Jesus, www.callonjesus.com. 2 Comments on The Bible Experience LIVE

Over a year ago Ron Belk approached me about a project to put the Bible, read by famous African Americans, on audio CDs. He needed to help to get the project off the ground and I agreed to help him. We recently completed the New Testament, which is available now at www.callonjesus.com/ and the Old Testament will be finished around Easter ’07.

The New Testament is 19 CDs and one DVD. Blair Underwood reads as the voice of Jesus. Denzel Washington reads the Song of Solomon. Samuel Jackson is the voice of God. Cuba Gooding Jr. is Judas and T.D. Jakes is the Holy Spirit. Deniece Williams and Cindy Herron-Braggs as well as a few others from our own congregation are involved, too.

As you can tell by the above artwork, we are having a LIVE reading with musical performances this Wednesday, November 15, 2006 at Bishop Blake’s church from 7 to 9 pm. I am planning on attending and want to invite you for this LIVE experience. As I’ve thought about this project, it’s NOT the fame of the individual people that make this a STAR ATTRACTION. The Bible itself is the WORD OF GOD….. enough said. This Book, no matter who the reader, no matter who the listener, will change the HEART of anyone who’ll simply apply the truths found in its pages. The question is: Will you read it? Will you listen to it? Will you apply it? No life is ever the same after coming face to face with the truth of God’s Word.

Will you join me this Wednesday for a LIVE experience of a lifetime at the West Angeles Church of God in Christ?
