World's Strongest Hillbilly Ministry
Steve came to the Lord from a life of abandonment, drugs, alcohol, and insecurity. He had always been physically strong, and he prayed God would bless him as He blessed Caleb with more strength in his "old age" (Steve was 36!) than he had in his youth. And God did.
Steve is a man who believes God gives all of us tools, and it is our responsibility to use those tools to glorify the Giver of them. His wife wrote to the "Tonight Show" and as a result, Steve was on national television. They didn't realize they were going to get a sermon from God's Word, but they did!
Steve McGranahan is like many "unusual" ministers out there. We are living in a time when ministers must use unusual approaches to get people's attention. And he definitely does do that! His ministry is called Heaven Bent Ministry and it is filled with humor, truth, and unbelievable acts of strength. Even his website is funny!
Finally, on The Christian Broadcast Network, I found one. And I share it with you today as entertainment, but even more, as a reminder that God has gifted every single one of His children. And He does expect us to use those gifts! Here goes the redneck gospel!
See? No excuses for not ministering, are there? We may not be the world's strongest hillbilly, but we do have special gifts given to us to equip us to minister for God and bring glory to His Name.
