Evangelism + Fun = Win

I recently discovered a project in and around the Edinburgh region called The Lighthouse Bus.

Basically a church bought up an old double-decker bus, decked it out with nice kit and now use it for youth and adult outreach. I was reading about how recently they drove it into the centre of Edinburgh and gave a quiz and free alcohol to a bunch of students and then explained why.

No preaching, no judging, no pushing the image of “boring” Christians who can’t have a good time. I read about this sort of outreach and it makes me really happy. To often I feel Christians can completely fail to actually connect with people about why they have their faith, instead seeming a bit wierd or alien and as if they no longer can have a good time.

To those involved in this project: hats off to you and good work!
