When I spoke to my Christian brother, Robert Alexander...
...who happens to be a former New York State Department of Corrections' employee and is now a town justice as well as a minister, he gave me some great news.
THE CHOICE IS YOURS video had been seen by about 6,000 teenagers during a large youth evangelism conference that was sponsored by Youth for Christ and was held in the Niagara Falls Convention Center in the City of Niagara Falls, New York.
Every year, some of the leaders of Youth for Christ's western New York region conduct a four-day conference and seminar for teens. This is a very big event that's sponsored by many churches. It is an all-out effort to encourage those teenagers who already believe in Jesus Christ, to help them to grow in their faith. They also want the kids to mature in their knowledge of the Lord. In addition, it is also a time to evangelize those who may be there as guests, but who do not know Jesus as Savior and Lord.
This past youth conference was held from December 27th through the 30th. THE CHOICE IS YOURS was shown during one of these days. I knew about the conference ahead of time, but I waited until now when the "official" victory report came in from brother Alexander.
I do not know how many (if any) kids got "born again" as a result of watching the video, or even in what capacity it was used. But I give God all the praise because He did use it, and according to brother Alexander, the youth responded in a positive way. He added that the Youth for Christ's staff were "very pleased with the results."
