I am enrolled in the School of Kingdom living.
This is a one year class that I am taking through our church.
My boys fondly refer to it as "Jesus cool." (Jesus school)
This year has been amazing.
It has been a year of personal growth, transformation, restoration, community, and all around goodness.
Within the class we are broken up into sub groups called missional communities.
I must say that my missional community is the best.
This group of people went from strangers to friends quickly.
We laugh, we cry, we hang out, we pray, and encourage one another.
A few weeks back I felt a strong nudge to be baptized.
This has been something that I have been wrestling with for several years.
I pretty much received word from The Big Guy that it was time.
I mentioned it to my Missional Community that I wanted to be baptized.
Like right NOW.
This act of bravery led to 7 others desiring the same thing.
The room was electric.
I will never forget this night as long as I live.
I was happy and free.
Our leader held us off that evening.
The following day I asked my neighbors to use their pool for the baptism and our evening was set.
Our leader and his wife baptized 8 of us.
6/13/13 will be a day that I remember forever.
I have journaled the details.
I was surrounded by God, my family, and my friends.
I felt Him smiling down upon us.
He was there and His presence was thick.
Oh happy day...
