I tried for years to get my "Reach The Beach" ministry off of the ground...
Especially in Malibu!

Its a joke...there is no way that Mark Hattabaugh would seriously do something this stupid. The problem is that some of you are seriously humor challenged and just dont get it.
OK, gang, before your knickers get all bunched up......This is TIC, I just watched it. The pastor is Mark Hattabaugh.You would have to know him and his sense of humour, great guy, great preacher, FUNNY FUNNY dude,and quite brave too with some of his "undercover" mission trips to certain countries. SoCali--Reformed Dave,Help me out, back me up on this one. DEAD THREAD MOVE ON, NOTHING TO SEE HERE This vid was TIC!!!
I AGREE MM, Mark is one funny man! NO ONE like him....
Ok people with your 'HOLIER THAN THOU' attitudes... I was ON this MISSIONS trip with MARK HATTABAUGH - this was a JOKE! I can't beleive you all think this stuff is serious and have to have a Bible Study about it! And where does the GAY thing come in??? You are sick people and need to get a life!!! If you can't get one, buy a dog and name it LIFE so you have one. This Apostolic Friends Forum is getting to be a Gossip column, and none of the Holier that thous are willing to stand up and say that Gossip is a sin??? Ok - I'm getting off my little horse... I don't want to judge either.
But, you see a little clip, you don't know what is behind it - you were not there before or after and you throw in your $5.00 (yeah - this is way beyond 2 cents stuff).
Thanks for those who know Mark Hattabaugh and standing up for him. He's a world changer, and doing many things with young people.
As for this "Flirt to Convert" - if you had been on this missions trip with our group, you would have realized it was a joke that Mark Hattabaugh was trying to pin some of the guys for especially inviting the cute senoritas to church.
It's a joke people - Laugh or let others laugh... and go to another gossip page... LOL That's a joke tooo... LOL
What's up with this? Would anyone here want their children partaking in such an 'outreach'? I have never heard of such a thing, and hope my kids never do either!
There was a teen girl in one of my previous churches (AG) who was dating an unsaved guy. She was so sad, one day, because God told her she had to break up with him until he got saved, if he got saved. So sad! Well, it wasn't long before she was so happy! The guy told her he was thinking of getting saved! Thinking! Oh joy, now they could date again. (I was like "what the?")

Well in my old church we didnt need God for that, the pastor done it!
Ok - You all still don't get it - IT WAS A JOKE!!! OK? Don't worry about it or them... these people in this video are RIGHT NOW on fire for God, right now doing awesome ministry and preaching (some even around the world), while you set at your keyboard and judge something that was really a bad joke. Laugh or cry - but please... GET OVER IT! Let it go...
