The Gauntlet

Last night I told Julian K about this road. It leads back to matt's house. Whenever we'd go to see him (after a good hard rain) we'd have to park at the road and have him come out to pick us up. If it was dry, we usually walked down into the woods and jumped over the mosquito infested pools. I believe that's what we had to do the day this picture was taken.

We tried really hard to get Matt to read on his own. He was living with a lady who was a member of the church at the time I met him. It was pretty hard to get through to either of them. I mean, they understood what we taught, but the will and motivation to apply wasn't there. Sometimes they would come to church together which was awesome. Later in the week we'd go see Matt to follow up with him and he'd tells us what he learned at church. All of this work eventually went down the toilet when Nancy left him.

A picture really does say a 1,000 words doesn't it?
