November 10, 1985 was the day that I was baptized into Christ at Seymour Heights Christian Church in Seymour, TN. I remember that week before being convicted of my sin while washing my hair in the shower. I don't remember what I had been learning, or what was going on during that week...but I know that Christ showed me my sin and my guilt, and revealed to me his righteousness and freedom that were offered to me. I came out of the shower bawling and telling my parents that I wanted to be a christian. The pastor of our church came by sometime that week and talked to me about what it meant to be a christian, and my dad baptized me that next Sunday.
Erin and I were talking this morning about coming to faith and re-telling a little of our stories. As we were talking I glanced at my watch and saw 11-10 and remembered what happened so many years ago today.
cool story...love you. can't wait to see you.
