Where You Can Really Shine
by Kenneth Copeland
In the early years of our ministry, Gloria and I would be talking with someone and they’d mention a certain city and say, “That’s the worst place in the world to preach. It’s so spiritually dead no one can have revival there.”
Gloria always knew what my response was going to be. Before I could even open my mouth, she’d say, “Well, I know where we’re going.”
I’m still that way. I was reminded of it recently when I was telling some people about the first time I preached in Las Vegas, Nev. I could almost hear what they were thinking. Sin City? You held meetings in Sin City?
Yes, I did, because that’s where the sinners are!
I didn’t hold the meetings in a church, either. Although these days I do preach in churches there, back then my venue was the Sierra Hotel and Casino. I chose that location because of a phone call I’d gotten from my friend Wayne Cochran. He’s a preacher now but he was once a major rock ’n’ roll star. (If you’re old enough you may remember his band, the C.C. Riders.)
