i ripped this from gavin's blog. i absolutely love it and think you will too.

this is an actual excerpt from john wesley's diary written sometime in the 1700's and serves as good encouragement for us:




  • Sunday morning, May 5, preached in St. Ann's, was asked not to come back anymore.
  • Sunday p.m., May 5, preached at St. John's, deacons said "get out and stay out".
  • Sunday a.m., May 12, preached at St. Jude's, can't go back there either.
  • Sunday p.m., May 12, preached at St. George's, kicked out again.
  • Sunday a.m., May 19, preached at St. somebody else's, deacons called a special meeting and said I couldn't return.
  • Sunday p.m., May 19, preached on the street, kicked off the street.
  • Sunday a.m., May 26, preached in meadow, chased out of meadow as a bull was turned loose during the service.
  • Sunday a.m., June 2, preached out at the edge of town, kicked off the highway.
  • Sunday p.m., June 2, afternoon service, preached in a pasture, 10,000 people came to hear me.
