A growing development in the Uganda Awakening is the rise of Street preachers among the evangelists spreading the End-Time Word. En route to meetings, these preachers often stop wherever they can find a crowd, and preach to the masses—-and are getting results. Some of these street revivals have resulted in the forming of whole new Messages churches. Other individuals believe unto repentance for Salvation, and are set on a new course in life. In this Episode, we hear excerpts of street preaching in progress, and comments from three of the ministers who have been involved in it. This old-time method, well proven in the past, is reviving in Uganda.
