More Hearts to be Awakened (Video Blog)

   On my first trip back to the beach since Anthony’s drowning, I was spending some time talking to Jesus (and to Anthony too!) and this Stephen Roach song came on that says “There is more land to be taken, nations to be shaken. There is more praise to be given. There are hearts to be awakened!” Suddenly I was filled with both an overwhelming gratitude for the time I had to love Anthony and pour into his life and a passion for awakening more hearts in the way I saw Anthony awakened. (To read more of this story, read grateful.)
   This video sprung forth from that time of prayer and praise on the beach. Although 2011 has been a really difficult year for me personally and for our mission, the Lord has been at work in some incredible ways! I wanted to take a few minutes to celebrate what the Lord is doing in our midst and prayer for continued awakening for the hearts that still need to encounter the Living God.
