Read Kathy's beautiful and provoking article: Electrocution Leads to Life. "We have this historical account as a precedent for the enormous sense of power surging through many of our bodies. Imagine being crowded up against the doors of a subway car rumbling through the tunnels tumbling over to one another and totally unable to open the doors to get out. From "What is the World is Happening to us?" by Bill Jackson. "Charles Finney: … the Holy Ghost descended on me in a manner that seemed to go through me, body and soul. I could feel the impression like a wave of electricity going through and through me. Indeed it seemed to come in waves and waves of liquid love; for I could not express it in any other way.

 I believe we will see a WAVE of new believers hungry and hurting. The church doors will be like the grand opening of a PRESCHOOL. We will need teachers yes, but far greater mothers and fathers. I see these mothers and fathers hand in hand walking these new children to the water. The water is electric, charged with power not to save no but the power to break; sickness, disease, infirmity, mental illness, addiction, and confusion. A year of incomparable glory, incomparable numbers but we must not look to what we have done to gain but what we have lost to gain. Sacrifice and Sabbath. Sacrifice and Sabbath, will be our rhythm. If you do more in five years than in one, how much will you do at 50? I see flipped binoculars looking from year 50 to 46… we will be shocked. In a good way. It's incomparable so don't be surprised if it's a butterfly.

who opened my eyes to what was going on, that I was in the middle of transformation right at that moment, choosing to be around the team, instead of isolation. "I WILL THRIVE ON ADVERSITY." That phrase- it's cute to say it. But when it comes right down to it, that's a tough thing to live out. But it's exactly the kind of challenge I need in this season. I've been on a personal journey for a few years now, something I rarely talk about, and if I do, it's usually only in little pieces, and privately.
