Thread: Ever minister in strip clubs or bars?

    Ever minister in strip clubs or bars?

    I saw this blog the other day and wondered if anyone here ever did something similar:


    I went to a strip club

    -A while back I was asked by a group of pastor's wives to go with them to strip clubs.

    That sentence alone sounds strange. But hang with me.
    At first I was a little hesitant. And not for reasons you might think.

    I love people. Especially ones who are broken; it's part of my calling. But, given what I've walked through, I know how fragile broken people can be.

    And I know how insensitive the church can be.

    And I was uneasy.

    But, these weren't just any pastors wives.They had a vision.

    One that longed to love on women that society had thrown aside.

    It reminded me a lot of Jesus.

    So, I jumped on it.

    Their plan was to visit these clubs once a month to deliver a meal and gift baskets. I joined them the first night and I'll be honest, I had NO IDEA what to expect.

    Now, I had my fair share of time (back in the day) in bars and such, but I'd never been to a strip club. I was totally unaware of what I was walking into.

    We arrived and the bouncer ushered us back into the dressing room where we introduced ourselves and began distributing the gifts and food.

    I was shocked by what I saw.

    And I'll tell you why...

    Got a waitress baptized in the Spirit in a pub once. We were eating dinner there but it was basically a pub. In that case the Spirit told me to drive there, stop there, enter that building. I think more happened in that area after I left.

    I don't go to strip clubs for whatever reason.

    I have no problem with this. But the question is, what if it was men going instead of a group of women?

    They could wear a blindfold

    I don't believe it would be appropriate for men to go there to minister.

    This all depends on the situation. I don't think I would try to minister to someone of either gender if they had no clothes on.
