Had an interesting experience last night. I saw a friend from High School that I hadn’t seen in fifteen years! He came to our Saturday night service @ Ebenezers.

It was very cool catching up. And it was so gratifying to see a spiritual intensity in him that is really remarkable. He didn’t grow up in a christian family, but I invited him to church when we were in high school. And he thanked me last night because he said I kept inviting him and inviting him and inviting him until he finally came. I don’t even remember being that persistent

Fast-forward fifteen years and it’s amazing to see his passion for God. He is serving as a lay pastor at his church. And his family is loving and serving God.

It really impacted me last night because I honestly didn’t feel like I did much, but he thanked me for the role I played in him coming to Christ.

It really reminded me of how important it is to plant seeds by sharing our faith and inviting people to church. I know that is so basic. But a simple invitation can change the trajectory of a life.
