Azotus

The activities of Philip, a deacon in the early church, came up. He finds himself on a desert road in the middle of the day, running to talk to an Ethiopian eunoch. After the man is baptized in a pool beside the road, Philip is snatched away to Azotus and must walk home many miles. He preaches along the way. Philip's adventures are not recorded, but it is such a wonderful story because it challenges me so.

Can I run to catch up with the chariot?
Can I expound on a passage of Scripture such that my listener will ask to be baptized when water appears miraculously?
CAn I be so focused on my message that I can even share it when plunked down far from home with no physical means of support?

Philip certainly has networking skills to find food, shelter, protection and people to preach to.

Imagining myself into this kind of evangelism and commitment is my creative work for today.
