The biggest miracle was forcing myself out of bed for church this morning at Calvary Chapel in Ft. Lauderdale. This megachurch looks more like a community college than a church. Worship and service rocked as former strip club owner, Pastor Bob, preached on Daniel 12.
I then ate with team member Adriana, at the restaurant which is housed inside of and operated by the church!
On the walk over to the convention, XXXChurch blogger Carl Thomas and I came across a picketer having a discussion with
A porn producer. This picketer claimed we were mocking God by saying Jesus loves pornstars. We tried to explain he and we were on the same team; he just wasn't doing it right.
Just outside the convention doors some believers handed out tracts and they were much more pleasant than the picketer.
Later, Carl Thomas and I had a chance to connect with the producer who had been debating the picketer. This producer confessed he sometimes wondered if the films he was making were harming the lives of others. This man had a great heart. We conversed about porn and spirituality and tried explaining why Jesus is the God he had been searching for.
Unfortunately, my near-gluttonous diet for the weekend had taken its toll on my body and the top button on my button-fly shorts randomly flew off!
I was caught with my fly open at a porn convention. Fortunately, my "Jesus Loves Porn Stars" T-Shirt covered up my "area", otherwise I may have been recruited into the industry!
I'm just boarding my plane now, but I do plan on writing a concluding post once I have time to process everything.
Keep it sexy,
-Brett
