Hi guys,
.
The shoot on the 18th went great. We had one minor (or rather major) hiccup, which was that Jake’s flight got cancelled first thing in the morning on the day of the shoot. (Jake has the HIV testimony that I mentioned in my last email.) We literally had a prayer team interceding behind the scenes as we were trying to find a way to get him to Pasadena in time for his interview. Two cancelled rental cars and a lot of options later, he was finally able to borrow a car and drive from Phoenix to LA. HRock Church was gracious enough to let us stay after hours so we could still get his story!

Honestly… the day was amazing. A lot of tears. My own faith was so strengthened by these miraculous stories, and I got to catch a glimpse of the potential impact.

The Bible speaks so many times of the power of our words. Words have the ability to “kill or give life,” to “soothe or to crush,” to “defile a person” or “bring healing,” to “set the whole course of one’s life on fire,” or “to praise our Lord and Father.” The power of a testimony—or, speaking out what God did—is that it builds faith and paves the way for God to do it again. That’s why Revelation 12 says, “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.”

Here we have a guy who was delivered from HIV and promiscuity. A young lady completely healed from bipolar disorder and drug/ sex addiction, off all meds, off the streets, and ridiculously full of joy. A woman who was trafficked for 13 years now working as an activist and waiting for a man who will love her in covenant. A young actor who overcame a decade of porn addiction and is now happily married with four kids. That’s the dunamis power of the Gospel.
.
Would you join with me in prayer that God will DO IT AGAIN?
