A ministry traced across America

Leo B. Lytle recounts seven years of travel around the United States, combining church invitations to preach or present “The Door” with street ministry in towns along the way. The routes may look like aimless zigzags on a map, but the account frames them as responses to ministry opportunities and spiritual guidance. Its central subject is Baptist Christian evangelism beyond church walls, including encounters on roadsides and in abandoned parking lots. The description reports more than 5,000 people praying to be saved during those first seven years, presenting the journeys as an ongoing record of outreach across the country.

Book overview

We have not been wandering in the wilderness these past seven years. But we have zig-zagged around the nation, again and again. If one drew lines on a map that traced our routes, those lines would look like we were wandering. Up and down, back and forth and all around in the United States of America, we have traveled. We have stood on countless patches of cracked concrete holding up crosses and leading people to the Lord.

We have not been wandering, though. We have been following. We have been following the leading of the Holy Spirit and responding to every opportunity that came our way. If a church, for example, invited Leo to preach or to present "The Door," we accepted the invitation. Along the way, there and back, we would do street ministry in the towns on our route. We would also try to find other churches that might want him to preach while we were in the neighborhood.

God has honored that approach. More than 5,000 people have prayed to be saved after we shared the Gospel with them during the first seven years of this ministry. These conversions have taken place outside the walls of a church for the most part, occurring mostly on the side of the road or in abandoned parking lots. All glory to God!
