Tent Revival Evangelism
Is Alive & Well
As if taking a page out of the history books and
adding crescendo from the traditional Gospel song "Give Me That Old-Time
Religion, Tent Gospel Revival and evangelism returned to Sullivan County during
the weekend of Aug. 3-Aug. 5 at Liberty Lighthouse Ministries.
Church Pastors Rich and Cathy Ienuso recently opened
their new church location at 5 Triangle Road opposite Albert's Restaurant and the three-day revival featured
17-year veteran Evangelist Pastor Joseph Chamberlin.
Rev. Chamberlin in addition to his
evangelism crusades has been in the ministry 32 years, 15 years as a church
pastor and presently serving as Pastor of the Little Falls, NY 1st Assembly Of
God Church.
This 5th generation pastor comes
from a family where his father was a pastor and he presently has three brothers
serving as pastors.
Rev. Chamberlin noted he was called to be an evangelist at
the age of 10 , pastor-ed his first church at the age of 22 and previously
traveled to some 250 evangelistic services a year. Now at the age of 52 he
preaches these type of services about once a month.
Formerly the head of church
evangelism for the New York State Assembly Of God Church the pastor is married
and his family consists of three daughters.
Parishioners at the Liberty Aug. 4-6 Tent Meetings heard
Pastor Chamberlin urge them to "choose what victory you want to live," and that
"fear doesn't have to dominate you because there is no opponent that can't be
conquered."
"When God gives you a job to do
there is victory and things will turn around," Chamberlin
said.
"God is still on the throng, never
curse God, look at yourself, what ever the severity of your situation is it can
be restored because Jesus said I can do more in an instant then anyone else,"
Chambelin urged.
The weekend services heard this
evangelist speak about what soldiers and military personnel are faced with when
they return home, the tragic shootings that have taken place recently, the
severe changes in weather the past several years and "that its all part of God
telling us to get our act together."
"Nothing is so ruined that it can't
be restored and Jesus could come again soon to do just this," Chamberlin
added.
