Throughout the year, a mission distribution center needs volunteers to help sort donated
items. There is clothing to separate by gender and size. Businesses donate school supplies
that have to be packed up. Some of the items are sent overseas while others are sent to
inner cities around the nation.
Volunteers come in from all over the United States, representing many churches. Some of the volunteers did not quite know what to think about Keith. Keith's arms were covered with tattoos, from the base of his hands to his shoulders. While he was balding in the front, he had a ponytail. One day, one of the volunteers began conversing with Keith, learning that he was from a large Midwestern city. When asked what he did for a living, Keith replied that he was a tattoo artist. That admission caused some discomfort among the group.
Keith sensed their uneasiness. He told them that while he is tattooing someone, he has a captive audience that provides an opportunity to witness to his faith. With a smile on his face he says they have to listen, "They cannot escape." Keith is able to reach young people that most likely many churches and individuals could not. Keith's passion to lead young people to faith shined through the conversation.
Three visitors told Abraham and Sarah that they would indeed have a son. Sarah laughed to herself. God asked Abraham, "Is anything too wonderful for the Lord?"
