Good grief no.

The kids were too smart to volunteer for a deal like that.

We were exhausted. We had probably logged 6-8 hours of prayer, and more than that of teaching.

We were on the third day of fasting...it was pretty brutal.

As we sat there and sipped coffee, Johnny Garrison was prancing around, still bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

Tony stared balefully at Brother Garrison over the rim of his coffee cup, and said to me, "I'm hungry for more of God, and I want God to use me. But if that man tells me to pray one more time tonight, I'm going to spit on his shoes."

I nearly fell out laughing.
I was teaching at a church where some of my family ran things. There was a lot of resentment against me from some of them and I was having a hard time getting the congregation involved with my message.

Tony was scheduled to speak right after me. I don't know if I said something that blessed him, or if he just felt sorry for me; but about 3/4 of the way through he came dancing up the aisle and his example shook the whole place up. I've always appreciated that bit of praise and worship of his, though I could never really tell him how much it meant to me as a young preacher.

It was an early version of what later became Manna Fest.

It was kind of an invitation only deal at the time.

We locked in the church, fasted all week, prayed many, many hours a day, and in between Brother Wright taught. I have heard him go four hours solid without stopping.

Theywould send us to bed around midnight, get us up at 2:00AM for a two hour prayer meeting, and the back up around 6:00 for some more.

It was as physically exhausting as anything I have ever participated in, but we had some amazing deep moves of God. It was a defining experience for me as a young man.

While this guy has preached some tremendous sermons, and God is a forgiving God, Anthony Langston is not a UPC licensed preacher...if he is, someone made a mistake.

I have known him personally for almost 15 years. Anthony? no, its really just Tony.

Well maybe he forgot to tell you ... LOL ....

The minute you don't pay your dues you are taken off the database ... well almost immediately.

Search for Anthony Langston:
