Shortly after writing my previous blog post, the Lord blessed me with a great opportunity to share with someone who actually loved hearing about Jesus.  15 minutes into the conversation, my friend Christian was so intrigued by it all that he began filming us.

There are so many people like my friend Ricky who have heard the name "Jesus" but have no idea who He is.  This video is for those of you who don't talk about Jesus because you feel like you don't know enough about the Bible.  There are so many who just need someone to tell them the basics.
