Lessons Learned From Preaching The Gospel Of The Grace Of God On The Streets In Saint Augustine Florida
On March 24 in 2012, I stepped out onto the corner of St. George and Hypolita streets in downtown Saint Augustine, Florida, and answered the call of God on my life to preach on the street. I preached alone that day, but amazingly God has provided co-laborers to minister with me every time since then including today.
In St. Augustine we preach to all different kinds of lost people, and we preach to all of them the same message. We preach Jesus Christ crucified, died and buried, and risen again on the third day according to the scriptures.
“But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.” Acts 20:24 (KJV)
On March 24 in 2012, I stepped out onto the corner of St. George and Hypolita streets in downtown Saint Augustine, Florida, and answered the call of God on my life to preach on the street. I preached alone that day, but amazingly God has provided co-laborers to minister with me every time since then including today.
So I thought I would share some of the lessons that the Lord has shown me through street preaching.
ACOUSTIC PREACHING: Though I have never used amplification when preaching on the streets, I have watched and listened as others have done so. It seems to me that when you’re preaching without amplification, it comes off more like the conversation that it’s supposed to be. Street preaching through microphones has a very harsh quality to it, and can be quite off-putting to the passersby. I believe with all my heart that if God has truly called someone to preach on the streets, then He has also given them a voice that can carry through on its own without electronic amplification.

A MAN WITH BRO. DAMIEN PRAYING TO RECEIVE JESUS AS SAVIOUR AFTER HEARING THE STREET PREACHING ON HYPOLITA STREET
LOVING THE LOST: Nothing makes me cringe more than watching some angry, self-righteous street preacher calling people out for their sins while mocking and belittling them. I think these people do a disservice to the cause of Christ. Yes, we are called to preach against sin, that’s true, but we need to always remember that it’s the Holy Spirit that brings the conviction. In St. Augustine we preach to all different kinds of lost people, and we preach to all of them the same message. We preach Jesus Christ crucified, died and buried, and risen again on the third day according to the scriptures. We preach Jesus Christ as the one and only way to Heaven. We preach because Hell is real and we don’t want to see them or anyone else going there. In short, we preach because if God loved the lost enough to send His Son to die on the cross for them, then showing them love is the least we can do.
A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH THE POLICE: When we started this street ministry, one of the first things we did was pay a visit to the then St. Augustine Police Commander, Steve Fricke, and spoke with him of our desire to preach on the streets while at the same time staying within city codes and ordinances. Commander Fricke was very nice to us, and told us what we needed to do, and we did it. From that day to this, 6 years later, we’ve never had a tense or bad moment with local law enforcement as we’ve preached within the hearing of well over a million people and the handing out of over 250,000 gospel tracts. The St. Augustine police have treated us very well. So it makes me just a little suspicious when I hear stories of street preachers who have these horrific run-ins with their local police. I can’t imagine they are not operating “in the flesh” when these incidents occur.
Many things about the Church have changed over the past 2,000 years, with some of those changes being good and some being not so good. But one thing that has never changed is the God-appointed ministry of street preaching. Jesus was a street preacher, all His disciples and apostles were street preachers, and the apostle Paul was absolutely a street preacher.
“And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.” Luke 14:23 (KJV)
If God has called you to be a preacher, don’t wait around to “get a church” who will give you a “pulpit”. Grab a boxful of gospel tracts and your King James Bible, and head out to your local street corner and preach the gospel of the grace of God to the people walking by. I promise you that by the time you’re done, you will know for sure if God has really called you to street ministry.
How the NTEB Gospel Tract came to be sent around the world
One day back in 2015, I was walking to St. George street to preach, and this thought came into my head that I should make the NTEB gospel tract we were using available through the website. I entertained that thought for a moment, then after we started preaching, I promptly forgot all about it. About an hour later, I was approached by a young Spanish couple on St. George street who stopped to hear me preach. After listening awhile, the man asked me in broken English about what I thought was him getting some tracts. So I handed him a box of tracts and he gave me a $20 bill. I assured him that there was no charge for the box of tracts, but that’s not what he was asking me. I finally understood that the the $20 he was handing me was to be put towards printing the tracts in large quantities and making them available online. Funny how the Holy Spirit works, isn’t it?
So in March of 2015, I made a web page advertising the tracts for sale, and within minutes orders starting coming in and they haven’t stopped. We regularly get orders from just about all 50 states, Canada, New Zealand, and as far away as South Africa. The Lord has truly blessed our efforts to get the gospel out.
At the 6 year mark of our street ministry, these are some of the things I have learned about preaching on the street. I’ve learned that preaching to people goes a whole lot further than preaching at people, that showing a little love and compassion can make the difference between someone walking closer or walking away, and that lost people really are listening even when you think they aren’t.

And I’ve learned that there is nothing more satisfying on this earth than having the privilege of leading someone to the Lord Jesus Christ in whatever way God chooses to use me to do it. If you would like to experience what it’s like doing street ministry, please send me an email to make arrangements, we’d be happy to have you join us some Saturday afternoon.
The war is real, the battle hot and the time is short…to the fight!

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: The First International Congress of Noahides In Jerusalem Will Prepare The Jews To Receive The Coming Biblical Antichrist
The First International Noahide Congress Will Gather Six Continents In Jerusalem To Build A Unified Global Religious Movement Preparing For Antichrist
For years, NTEB has warned that the Seven Noahide Laws will provide the religious and judicial framework necessary to unite the nations under a counterfeit system of morality without Jesus Christ. Now, in November 2026, representatives from six continents are scheduled to gather in Jerusalem for the First International Congress of Noahides, and the organizers are telling us plainly that this is “a foundation, not a conference.” They are not gathering merely to exchange ideas. They intend to sign a founding charter, establish an international rabbinical court, create regional councils, adopt a unified syllabus, institute structured membership and build the financial machinery necessary to sustain a global religious movement. Christian, keep your wits about you, the man of sin is about to be revealed, and we are about to board Flight #777 on Titus213 Airlines!
“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3–4 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, think about what is being constructed with the First International Noahide Conference. A One World universal moral code, one centralized spiritual authority, one international judicial structure and one worldwide movement—with Jerusalem functioning as its spiritual center. This is precisely the type of institutional scaffolding required before a religious philosophy can become a religious government. The organizers even declare that delegates will arrive as individuals and leave as “one movement.” The scattered pieces are being assembled, the authority is being centralized, and the machinery of worldwide religious administration is being put into place. The deception is found in what the Noahide system appears to offer. It speaks of God, righteousness, prophecy, covenant, morality and the world to come. It condemns murder, theft, sexual immorality, idolatry and blasphemy. To the unsuspecting world, it will appear peaceful, reasonable and righteous. But it offers righteousness without the shed blood of Jesus Christ, reconciliation without the Cross, salvation without the Saviour and a kingdom without the King. It is not atheism attacking religion from the outside; it is a counterfeit biblical religion attempting to replace the gospel from within. We are watching something move from religious theory into institutional reality. The Seven Noahide Laws are being given a charter, courts, judges, councils, textbooks, rituals, financing and a global headquarters in Jerusalem. The First International Congress of Noahides may pass largely unnoticed by the mainstream media, but we are watching this unfold with our spiritual eyes wide open. The organizers say “history is beginning anew” and that the “prophetic hour has arrived”. They say this is a foundation and not merely a conference. On that final point, we should believe them. A foundation is being laid, but it is not being laid upon Jesus Christ. Today we bring you everything you need to know about the First International Conference of Noahides in Jerusalem.

Iran Unveils Massive Tehran Billboard Showing Donald Trump In A Coffin As The Regime Sends A Chilling Message Of Defiance And Mockery To America
Iran Puts Trump In A Coffin Before The Watching World As Tehran Escalates Its War Of Threats, Propaganda And Open Hostility Toward The United States
This is not merely a protest sign, this is a death threat stretched across the skyline of Tehran. Iran has taken the image of an American president, laid him inside a coffin, and turned the spectacle into a massive public billboard for the entire world to see. The message is designed to be unmistakable. Tehran wants America to know that the conflict is personal, the hatred is deep, and the regime is not backing away. He doesn’t want to do it, but Donald Trump now has no choice but to send in ground troops to finish this war he started 138 days ago. The “peace talks” just died.
“The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming.” Psalm 37:13 (KJB)
What makes the image so provocative is its deliberate theatrical cruelty. Trump is not shown defeated at a negotiating table or removed from office—he is shown dead, displayed and mocked, while hostile graffiti covers the coffin beneath him. This is psychological warfare dressed up as street art, meant to humiliate Trump, energize Iran’s hardliners and project defiance after months of military confrontation. It also exposes the fantasy that Iran has been permanently subdued. A government that feels crushed does not erect a billboard like this in the center of its capital. This is the imagery of a regime that believes it survived, absorbed the attack and emerged more determined to confront the United States. Tehran is telling Washington that the war of threats, symbols and retaliation is far from over.
Not only is Iran not afraid of the United States, now the regime is openly and directly taunting President Donald J. Trump with a huuuuugggeee billboard in downtown Tehran showing him in a coffin. This is what happens when you don’t finish the war you started. #taco pic.twitter.com/ngDUVEdK9r
— Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) July 16, 2026
America may view it as propaganda, but Iran intends it as a warning. They have not forgotten the strikes, the sanctions, the assassinations or the threats of regime change. The coffin billboard declares that Iran is no longer simply answering Trump’s words with words—it is publicly imagining his death and inviting an entire nation, and the world, to stare at it. Talk about your bold moves, this one incredible especially when you consider that it comes after 4 nights of air strikes and bombing from the United States.
For Donald Trump, the image is intensely personal. Iran has taken the man who built his political image around strength, dominance and intimidation and portrayed him motionless, powerless and dead. It is an attempt to reverse the psychological balance—to transform the man who threatened Tehran into the object of Tehran’s threat. The regime is telling him that every strike, every sanction and every promise of regime change has been entered into a ledger that Iran believes must eventually be paid in blood. But the warning extends far beyond one man. Trump may be the face inside the coffin, but the target of the message is the United States itself. Iran is declaring that American power does not frighten it into silence and that the cycle of strike, retaliation, escalation and revenge remains very much alive. The billboard is a weapon of psychological warfare, a recruiting poster for hardliners and a warning to Washington that Tehran is willing to keep this confrontation personal, public and dangerous.
This is what the world is looking at in central Tehran, not peace, not reconciliation and not a defeated enemy—but a regime raising the image of an American president’s death over its capital like a banner of unfinished business. The coffin is supposed to contain Trump, but the greater truth is that it contains the remains of every claim that Iran has been permanently broken. No one in the Trump administration seems to understand the first thing about the radical Muslim mindset, and until they do, victory for America, sad to say, will remain out of reach.
