"I'm ready to be baptized." That was his statement. Doug had read all the Scriptures and wanted to accept Jesus as his Savior and Lord. He wanted to go down into the waters and have his sins "washed away." He was ready.
We met at lake Wauhob, walked past the bluegill and minnow, and baptized him into Christ. What a great day!
But, he wasn't alone.
Chris was in a completely different place. He was experiencing God at a Christ in Youth conference in Holland, Michigan. He had been wrestling with the desire to be baptized for over a year now. They had a swimming pool there. "Look, there's water! What's to prevent me from going now?" It was time.
Two new brothers.
One great day.
Imagine life differently.
