Long Time No See
Holy crap on a cracker its been a while. Well things are good. Right now we are in the middle of a series called Hostage. I am super stoked about it. We are only half way through and we have already seen some growth happen. The thing is its not really the growth that has me excited its the fact that people are starting to really get connected with each other and more importantly, with Jesus. We have a new web domain called heldhostage.ca There is a section of the web page called ‘come clean’. Its a place where people can go and post their ‘stories’. A place where someone can go to just get things off their chest. Whatever that may be. Its completely anonymous, no one can ever find out who’s story is who’s. The whole point of it being the sweet release of unleashing the secrets in our lives that keep us HOSTAGE. So far the response on it has been good. There are some pretty crazy stories on there already. I’m getting more and more nervous as the days go by in this series because I feel like something big is gonna happen. I don’t know why. Not that I think its gonna explode and we will all of a sudden be overrun by hundreds of people. Although that would be cool. I just think that some serious life changes are gonna happen in the lives of people who have been waiting a long time for freedom from things that have been holding them down for so long. Freedom they thought would never be possible. I’m also nervous because in two weeks, on the 23rd, I will be preaching. I’m not nervous about the preaching, cause getting up in front of people and making a fool out of myself is something I am pretty good at. I’m nervous about it because I am going to be pouring out my heart for people who are held hostage by addictions. Add to that the fact that I will be unleashing the honesty of what my life has been like. My only real prayer through all of this is that people will connect with what I am going to say and that lives will truly and honestly be changed. I really long for the day when God will start to use my life, and my story to open the cages of so many people who are still Hostage to addiction.
I don’t know what your story is, but maybe its one that you have never been able to truly tell anyone. Its been dragging you down and hanging over your shoulder for a long time. You can go to heldhostage.ca and click on the ‘come clean’ link and let it go once and for all. Remember, it is completely anonymous. No one can trace it back to you. Just so you know, I have posted something from my own life on there, so you are definitely not alone. So, are you going to let it out of the cage, or will you continue to hold on?
