mentoring the matrix
last night i spoke at IN-FYUZ again...
i spoke on the difference between the Gospel of Salvation, and the Gospel of the Kingdom. how it's not about inviting Jesus into our lives, but accepting His invitation into His life-- dying to ourselves, giving up our lives to find true life.
anyway, one girl came forward to the altar to accept the invitation to die (we didn't have black sheets or anything.... :o)-- her name is Alicia, and she's 17.
i have been hanging out with Alicia quite a bit - and now she has asked me to disicple her. so yea, last night we hung out, and did some deliverance stuff-- we're working through steps to freedom.
i'm also discipling this 15 year old girl named Jenni-- totally different story-- her dad is the pastor of a cell based church. she's solid.
and i'm meeting with this 24 year old girl named Abby often to pray, and share-- she's kind of discipling me/ we are disicpling eachother.
anyway-- i'm really excited about all of these teenage girl relationships i've been able to get into! i've been praying for this...i find that i can do the "train" part of "capture, train, deploy" much better with a 17 year old girl, than with a 45 year old man at re:cre8.
hallelujah for these divine opportunities.
please pray that i may use them effectively - that these girls will be blessed through me this summer.
praise Jesus.

You rock in the power of Jesus!
I'm not sure if that makes sense, but it sounds cool.
Keep fighting! You'll gain the victory and a crown!
I'm proud of you - my sunbeam girl!

Livie Louis,
You are doing the main thing, great commission -- making disciples. Halleluia! Good focus, Beloved One : )
