The Lord called me to be an evangelist, and I can see that from a young age. My father was a great Christian influence on me, taking me to hand out evangelistic Gospel tracts in neighboring towns. We were mocked and insulted, but we continued to spread the word of God \u2014 even before I was a true Christian. After I decided to follow Jesus at age 12, I was listening to a radio program in my aunt and uncle\u2019s home. I didn\u2019t hear the preacher\u2019s name but his voice was vibrant and excited. Then another man\u2019s strong deep voice started singing, \u201cOut of my bondage, sorrow and night, Jesus, I come, Jesus I come\u2026\u201d I had been listening to Billy Graham and George Beverly Shea. Stretched out on that living-room floor, listening, I prayed: \u201cJesus, someday use me on the radio to bring others to You.\u201d Little did I know that one day I would preach to millions of people over the radio, and that I would be in full-time ministry for over fifty years. The Lord calls all of us to spread His word, to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them and teaching them. If we are obedient to God\u2019s call, He will do great things through us, spreading the Gospel all over the world. This is Luis Palau.
