Dunkin' ...

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to participate with Rob Wegner and Butch Whitmire (two of our Pastors here at GCC) at our Baptism service. We do funky fun things with Baptism each year (last year, we loaded inflatable giant pools onto bases at a local minor league baseball stadium and then dunked people by the hundreds), and this year decided to host it here at our own campus. It was an amazing experience to see several hundred people step out of their seats and into pools out on the campus lawn to openly declare their faith in Christ. The video attached here is of one of our dear friends (Martin "Pee Wee" Neal) stepped into the pool with Rob and Butch and me, and one of our Media Crew captured the footage that is loaded here. For more about Pee-Wee's journey of faith and why this was such a significant day for him (and for us), you can go to Dan Blacketor's blog by clicking here.
