I will be starting doing "Gospel Street Magic" in earnest in May, 2019 on the downtown streets of Kalamazoo ("permitted" by the Arts Council of the City even). I was looking for a eye catching hoodie to wear particularly outside in the cooler evenings- turns out www.rageon.com sells a bright yellow hoodie with the words "Must Be Magic" printed on the front of it in huge visible letters. Price is about $89 depending on the buyer discounts you can get from them, extra shipping costs, etc.. Nifty! (and hopefully not too tacky). Just put in "Must Be Magic hoodie" in their web site search box. I have not used this particular company before, I assume the hoodie quality is ok, but I'll let you know if it is of poor quality (it ought to be pretty good material for this price). If I don't re-post about this "Must Be Magic" yellow hoodie later, you can assume this hoodie was worth it for me at least to hopefully help draw some attention to my street close up stand. Fired Up!

Those hoodies (many of them!)are incredibly cool!

Thanks!

God Bless You!

Just a note about my "Must Be Magic" hoodie- they are made overseas and the delivery time is quite long. But mine eventually arrived in good shape.

I wonder what Christ could have accomplished with such an outfit. What is the message you are trying to convey?
Not challenging, just confused.

In terms of performing on the street, I can see that the hoodie has the potential as a conversation starter. Great idea. Not only that -- if people see you on another day, they will instantly recognize you and might want to see another trick or talk about Christ... who knows!

I found a perfect manly looking close up bag for table hopping. It is made of black leather and has multiple zippered pockets. It's about the size of a shoebox, so it easily holds my small Miser's Dream cup, many card decks, coins, sponge balls and my multiple give away items. Best feature: it comes with a very long strap it so it can be swung around one's back out of sight while doing a trick, then swung to the front to take out props. It is a "TVB" model sold for $29.99 at D and D Leather, Inc., located next to the IMAX Theater in Branson in a nice store (they also sell a number of various sized leather coin purses). They will ship the bag for an extra $10. D and D Leather, 3562 Shepherd of the Hills Expressway, Branson, MO 65616, phone 417-334-7257. I found this shop while in Branson for the recent Gospel Magic Days put on by Duane and Mary Laflin - their Hollister Grand Magic headquarters/theater also has a nice Gospel magic shop.

I am handing out free copies of What Time Is Purple? doing street magic near WMU's campus. Tremendous 46 page booklet, can obtain for free by paying the shipping only. See www.WhatTimeIsPurple.com or go to www.wretched.org/purple

I have created and used Gospel Pocket Evangelism Cards based upon the short long Sven principle. It shows a stack of black sin cards that can be shown freely that turn into a stack red Jesus cards. The Romans Road is printed on the back of he cards. The description and instructions are a free download on my website. It’s a very strong visual example of what God does in our lives through Christ. https://www.halsaxonmagic.com/store/pocket-evangelism-cards

Thanks Hal!

My pleasure. You’re very welcome

Another Gospel idea is my Pepper IN Salt OUT Transformation Vanish using the TT. It is a very visual Pepper/BLACK. Salt/WHITE transformation that can be used in a close up Gospel presentation. The spectator pours pepper in the top of the magicians fist and salt comes out the bottom. The spectator stops pouring pepper and the salt stops. Repeatable. It is a free download on my website using this coupon code. D9KBJTI until the end of the month. Let me know how you would present the Gospel with this effect. https://www.halsaxonmagic.com/store and scroll down.

Mr Hal,
I'm looking over your site: WOW! You may be the one guy who is currently emphasizing and training people exclusively on the TT. This may be the place I go shopping next!

Thanks!

I just took advantage of the coupon code you offer above - very thorough! Stuff for real students of magic... thank you so much for this free gift. It's worth more than it's original price!

Thanks so much Jamie, You will have to let me know you're routining/adaptation for a gospel presentation. And you are very welcome...-Hal

Hal, I also want to thank you for the free downloads on the TT.

Tom

Hi Mr. Tom, You are welcome and let me know how you might use it for a Gospel presentation. Patter etc. I am curious to hear various adaptations. Enjoy my friend. Best regards, -Hal

I found out yesterday I start doing table hopping June 21 at the Kalamazoo Growlers baseball team's "Faith Day". Absolutely 👍 amazing coincidence. I can't wait to use my new "Baffling Blocks" Lego paddle for picnic tables with little kids- going to change the paddle to the team color matching blue. I really like the look and visual size of "Baffling Blocks".
