Beautiful! This is the first Blog I have posted to my site that wasnt one I wrote. It moved me. I am still moved. I am thankful to have read it…Please take the time to read it too!
A while back I was asked by a group of pastor’s wives to go with them to strip clubs.
That sentence alone sounds strange. But hang with me.
At first I was a little hesitant. And not for reasons you might think.
I love people. Especially ones who are broken; it’s part of my calling. But, given what I’ve walked through, I know how fragile broken people can be.
And I know how insensitive the church can be.
And I was uneasy.
But, these weren’t just any pastors wives.
They had a vision.
One that longed to love on women that society had thrown aside.
It reminded me a lot of Jesus.
So, I jumped on it.
Their plan was to visit these clubs once a month to deliver a meal and gift baskets. I joined them the first night and I’ll be honest, I had NO IDEA what to expect.

Thanks for reblogging this, Susan. The church my son attends has a similar ministry.

I enjoyed reading this so much and I totally agree that more people should step out of their comfort zone to “walk across the room” for someone. I was touched by reading this!
