Evelyn Carter Spencer tells campers at the Missouri CFO in 1977 about a bumblebee that, never having been told it cannot fly, simply keeps flying. She urges them to act on the word of God the same way, rather than waiting to feel ready. In Christ, she says, “everything you need, you have.”
Evelyn Carter Spencer preaches from 2 Peter 1 that “everything I need, I have.” Psalm 139, she says, broke years she had spent trying to please everyone else. She confessed that promise three times, once each to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The message comes from the Missouri CFO in 1977.
Evelyn Carter Spencer pictures a judge who steps down from the bench to pay a defendant’s debt himself. Believers, she teaches, are already justified by grace, and they need not strive to earn what Christ has settled. She gave the message to campers at the Missouri CFO in 1977.
Evelyn Carter Spencer preaches from 1 Kings 13 at the Missouri CFO in 1977. A young prophet abandoned the word God had given him directly, followed an older prophet’s false claim instead, and was killed for it. She urges campers to get their own walk with God settled rather than checking it against someone else’s word.
Leading communion at the 1977 Missouri CFO, Evelyn Carter Spencer recalls standing in the empty garden tomb in Jerusalem and crying, “ain’t nobody there.” She then describes a vision of the Lord waiting by a cabin fire, refusing to force anyone to come warm themselves or eat.
Evelyn Carter Spencer borrows a truckers’ CB radio phrase, “I got your back door,” as a picture of how believers should watch out for one another. She warns campers at the 1977 Missouri CFO that people in the body of Christ are dying of loneliness, because Christians will not touch, listen to, or simply notice each other.
