Dear Friends,
God bless you all and thank
you again for your love, prayers
and support. God has blessed us
mightily during the past few
months. Hundreds of people have
asked Jesus to save them. Almost 500 during our 28th Memphis Inner-City Crusade alone.
On one of the days, I sat in a chair
and led 37 adults to Christ as they
left our snow cone booth. I had
the best “fishing hole” of the day.
One man got saved and came back
later with his brother, so he could
get saved too. He said, “I like the
way you break it down Brother
Ronnie. You make it simple.”
Brother Hector Slaughter taught
me the KISS method of soulwinning—Keep It Simple Stupid.
Our staff and most of the
volunteers from Memphis, and
Branch and Victory Baptist
Churches in Arkansas personally
led people to Christ. Some of
them saw folks come to Jesus for
the first time. A man, who used to
be a businessman, told me one
time after going with us that he
never knew one could take a Bible
and tracts out on the streets and
people would stop and listen to
him. He is now a missionary in
Central America.
We issued a call for soulwinners, and God also sent us
some wonderful folks from Bellevue Baptist Church. Speaking of
Bellevue, a large group of their
folks came down several days ago
for a Back to School Bash. They
gave out snow cones, popcorn, hot
dogs, hugs and back packs loaded

with school supplies.
Their
Bellevue loves Memphis Ministry is such a blessing to us and
other ministries around the city.
Thank you to all of them.
Back in April, God
opened the door for me to go to
Batesville Junior High School in
Batesville, Mississippi and speak
to their Fellowship of Christian
Athletes. At least 150 asked
Jesus to save them. All glory to
Jesus!
We went to Dumas, Arkansas in May and saw over 40
folks pray for salvation. Chris
Russell and Victory Baptist
Church are doing a good work
in that part of the country. The
RTEA hosted a basketball tournament at the end of May in the
Outreach Center and during the
halftime
preaching,
God
touched 40 people to give their
hearts to Him.

These are exciting days as
God pours out His Spirit on those,
who surrender to His Lordship. During the second week of August, Susan and I went to Louisiana and met
with a group of preachers from
Colfax. We are praying about holding a Crusade in that town with street
evangelism during the day and
preaching services at night in the civic center. The mayor of the town is a
pastor, and I will go back to preach
for him in October. While we were
there, I preached at the Church where
my dad is a member, Liberty Christian Church. Nineteen people asked
Jesus to save them, and several of my
family members, who had come to
hear me preach gave their hearts to
Jesus. Both of my brothers, whom I
had been praying for since 1981,
asked Jesus to be the Lord of their
lives, and two first cousins from California, who were in town were saved
also. God is good!
If you are interested in being
a part of the Louisiana Crusade,
please let us know, so we can start
setting up our lodging and meals
(Can I say Cajun Cooking?). It will
be during the first part of August
2016, on a Wednesday night through
Sunday morning. We will leave out
Sunday afternoon, but if you are a
pastor, we’ll get you and your folks
home for Sunday morning.
Let me remind you that the
Promised Land Camp is available if
you would like to get a group together for intensive Prayer, Bible Study
and /or Soul-winning training. You
can contact Mrs. Beth McDaniel at
(901) 355-9165.
What I have found through
the years is that people want someone
to love them unconditionally. From
the ghettos of Inner-city America, to
the small towns in the North and
South, or in Russia or the Caribbean
Islands; people want to be loved and
accepted. When they are convinced
of that fact, they are more than willing to hear what you have to say.
The love of Christ has torn down
every barrier that we have ever faced.
Your support for the RTEA has enaContinued on page 4

I am blessed to be in a place
where I can preach and teach God's
Word whenever I want. Often during the week, we will take timeouts
from basketball to preach the
Gospel. One particular night I was
reading Colossians 3:5-6; “Mortify
therefore your members which are
upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil
concupiscence, and covetousness,
which is idolatry: For which things'
sake the wrath of God cometh on the
children of disobedience...”
I asked the guys to think
about their lives and honestly decide
if their lives could be described with
the
word
“Obedience”
or
“Disobedience.” We agreed that
none of us wanted to experience the
Wrath of God that comes with rebelling against Him. Also, God's Word
reminded us that night that these
sins listed here should have been put
to death at salvation. It was obvious
that many of these young men were
struggling with conviction over their
sin. I was even reminded of my rebellious nature that has to be put to
death everyday.
The Holy Spirit was working on our hearts and calling some
of these men to salvation. Praise the
Lord, several men decided to put
their faith in Jesus Christ as their
Lord. They experienced the freedom
found in dying to self and letting
Jesus be in control. A few of those
men are now regulars in our Bible
study and often bring friends to hear
the Word too! What a blessing to see
people saved and then naturally incline themselves to bring others to
Jesus! Thank you all.
bled us for the past 34 years to
love people right where they are.
God bless you and thank you for
that.

O LORD, not unto us, but
