Overview
“Preach to the people on this bus. But Lord, I can’t! Lutheran ministers don’t preach on buses in the middle of Manhattan! They’ll think I’m—Do it. Now.” From that life-changing day on the bus to today, stories of Harald Bredesen’s adventures in the Lord have traveled far and wide. Who was this unassuming, faithful follower of Christ who fought against following in his preacher father’s footsteps? Come hear from the man himself—Harald Bredesen—who learned the ups and the downs of learning to say “yes, Lord” no matter what. This story of a young man’s growing pains in Christ becomes the story of a man who would one day find himself in the company of world leaders and an important influence in the lives of many prominent people won to Christ— Pat Robertson, Gordon Robertson, Pat Boone, Wendy Griffith, Scott Ross and others. Sit back and let Harald tell his almost unbelievable stories of not knowing or asking why, but being willing to be led to the right place at the right time, where he was often given just the right words. And it all started with saying, “Yes, Lord.”
