“I believe that God created each of us to do His work and spread His Word. Your vision stands as a shining light on a hill. It speaks to who we are. It is an irresistible invitation to a relationship with the Living Lord. The Garden will speak to the many searchers and reinforce the faith of others. Many of Christ’s followers began their quest as curious by-standers. His message made them believers. The cross will attract the curious. The Garden and your crew of volunteers, have an opportunity to introduce them to the living Lord. I believe The Empty Cross will be a magnet drawing the seekers. It will come to symbolize this fine, Christian city, welcoming and comforting the burdened. I expect to hear people say, ‘You are from Kerrville: you must be proud to live in a city that is not ashamed to tell the world Christ is our guiding light.’ I am glad the Lord sent Max and a number of visionaries willing to stand up for Jesus.”
