Mark 16:15 ~ "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." ~ even if it's just to your barn. May the message and the man be truly blessed.

My hubby and I have a 14-foot cross which we keep lighted, erected in our front yard visible from our road which is heavily traveled as a main route to a lake and viewed by lots of people. We started out about 15 years ago just putting lights on it at Christmas but after the death of my late husband in 1991 I kept it lighted all year round. I have received nothing but compliments on it, but of course, we live in the bible belt in rural Norman, oklahoma. I think it is a wonderful witness and believe me, when a healthy wind blows out the lights and they have to be replaced, it requires almost constant maintenance. We buy about 50 replacement bulbs in a year, but the effort required to keep it lighted is well worth the effort. We don't have a barn, but hey, whatever you can do.......
