AFTENSHOWET

A few days after the GLDFestival I went to Copenhagen together with Pastor Bob and Jonas (from Solace The Day and the Core-group). We dropped off Pastor Bob by a church where he would be speaking for a crowd of x-prisoners; and then Jonas and I dropped by "Aftenshowet".

Here we had 6,5 minutes of chat + 1,5 video, talking about how it is to be a Christian metalhead in Denmark. This program is on the main TV-station and is one of the most viewed programs. We were blessed to be on at 19:00 (7pm) right after the TV-news, so it couldn't be better.

It was just so blessed all the way through. Finding a good parking space, being there before time, getting free coffee (heheh) and having some good time hanging out with some of the TV-folks. Everybody was extremely positive and very interested in chatting and hearing about what kinda dudes we were.

We had a really fun time respecting each other and joking around both before, during and after the 8 minutes on the air.

Two days before the show a cameraman came to Aarhus to do some video shots of Solace The Day practicing and our pastor Keld Dalhmann and us being at my church. Below is a still-shot from the Solace The Day practice.
We've got an awesome support from my church Aarhus Valgmenighed, which means a LOT. Here's a picture from the video where we're gathered talking around the alter. The cameraman got a lot of cool shots and it was mixed together in a good way to support our message.
It was a privileged to be able to share our faith this way. We were asked about sex, alcohol and experiences with prejudices towards our faith of love and our brutal music. Afterwards we got a lot of great response from excited people who felt that we delivered the testimony of Christ's love to everyone in a very real way. It really felt like God was there blessing our words and making it go smooth.

Though there's people who really dislike the way we're sharing the gospel, there's also many who can see through the cultural look and music genre, and hear the message; and that's what it's all about. I'm very thankful for all the encouraging words from folks; thanks!

The greatest response we got was getting a phone call in the middle of the night after the show, from a friend of my family, who told me, that her 30 year old neighbor decided to give his life to Christ after watching those 8 minutes. He had looked at the TV, pointed his finger and said: "If thát guy can be a Christian...So can I", and that was the opening for my friend to talk about the love of Christ with him!    

THAT story is worth everything!! GLORY TO GOD!
