Well, folks, I just got back from a week at Haven Seton Sands near North Berwick for swimming and evening entertainment. While I was there, I spent some time in our caravan, just praying for that area, asking the Lord if there was still a real witness for the gospel going on, and if there was any strong Bible teaching happening. You know, folk, I have walked past this church loads of times, called North Berwick Baptist Church, the church at 1 Victoria Road, the one with the blue door.

On Wednesday afternoon, I was walking back from the sweet shop with my son. He’s non-verbal, and he doesn’t like to stop for long, so we just keep moving. On the street I saw two older ladies handing out tracts. They weren’t Jehovah’s Witnesses. I went over and spoke with them for a moment. They told me they were from the Baptist church, and that they come out on Wednesdays to give out tracts.

They were very simple about it. They handed me a tract and said something like, “Hear the good news of Jesus Christ.” That was it. No long talk. Just the good news.

It really encouraged me. I had been praying, and the Lord let me see His people still sowing the seed of the Word in that place. You know, the gospel doesn’t need to be complicated. Jesus died for our sins, He was buried, and He rose again the third day. That’s the good news. And those sisters were simply sharing it.

I’m thankful for the faithfulness of North Berwick Baptist Church. If you’re ever in the area, they’re at 1 Victoria Road. They’re getting the Word out.

May the Lord continue to use them. And may we all be ready to share that same simple message wherever we are. The Lord is still at work, and He still uses the simple preaching of the gospel.
