I am extremely encouraged this morning by the transforming power of Jesus Christ. I love the fact that the whole Masters program is centered around Spiritual Transformation, how Christ redeems us from the inside out, changing so many things about us. I got an update from my sister on my newest niece and nephew yesterday. They are miracle babies who are now almost 6 months old. Twins born almost 2 months early, it is amazing to see the pictures of them and see how they have transformed physically. How God is helping them grow into healthy little babies. My brother-in-law in the update said, "God is redeeming our story." I love this line!
This morning I stumbled across this video trailer for an upcoming movie called Machine Gun Preacher. It is based on the true story of Sam Childers, a former drug-dealing criminal who undergoes an astonishing transformation and finds an unexpected calling as the savior of hundreds of kidnapped and orphaned children in Sudan. Just watching the trailer made me excited to see this movie. And it goes right back to being transformed by Christ. Here is a quote that I found along with the video.
“Sam Childers is one of those rare men [who is] willing to do literally whatever it takes to promote the message of Jesus Christ and save children from the tyranny of evil men.” -- John Rich, lead singer and songwriter, Big & Rich
Here's the video - I hope that it stirs Christ's transforming power in you as it did in me.
