Sam Poter suggested I attend the Rewired Retreat but I did not. I am glad my Lord and Savior went to people but did not have to become as they were for them to accept Him. That He didn't need a "dog and pony show" to bring salvation to their hearts and lives. I glad too that when one accepts Christ we become a new creature. Salvation is not a game. Only the Holy Spirit can convict one of his sin. One rule in mountain climing is stay at least six feet from the edge if unroped. It is sad to see the Southern Baptist ignoring that rule.

I did not attend but truly wish I had. Other responsibilities kept me away but I will tell you this, If I was lost and it took a "dog and pony show" to show me the way to the Lord. I would praise the Risen Lord for all the dogs and ponies in the world. I remember from my Bible an event that some on the outside might have called a "Dog and Pony show". The result was the cross and the victory was a resurection of my savior.

I am so thankful for what Falls Creek is doing. My uncle asked me if I would like to go with him on a motorcycle ride to Falls Creek. I thought to myself, that would be a nice little get away and nice long ride on my motorcycle. I told him "yes" I would go and I did. To be honest with you I was only going for the bike ride and to say that I saw Spencer Tillman in person. I had no idea what God had planned for me that weekend or that my life would be changed forever. If you read the Baptist messenger it said that there was more than 2,200 men and atleast "30" men left with their lives changed for eternity. Well I am very proud to say that I was one of those "30" men. As we bowed our heads and asked God for forgiveness I felt this tingling all over my body. I raised my hand as one of the guys that repeated the prayer. The speaker then said if you raised your hand, please come forward. I told myself in my head that I was not walking down to the front in front of all these guys. After that thought entered my head I looked up and saw that I was already halfway down the isle. I had no idea that I was already walking. I am very proud to say that on Friday April 25th 2008 I was saved. I want to thank Falls Creek for what you do because you have changed my life forever. When I got home, my wife and I went to church that following Sunday morning but my son could'nt make it that morning. My son called me that Sunday night and said that he went to the evening church service. He then said Dad I have something to tell you, when I went to church tonight, I got saved. I had not told him about me getting saved at Falls Creek only two days prior because I had not seen him to tell him about my weekend. God is already working throughout my family. I now have a bible, and I find time every eveing to read a verse or two. My 19 year old son saw me reading the bible and he asked me to read out loud to him so I did. A couple of days later I came home for lunch and my 19 year old son said, "Dad I don't want to go to Hell, can you say that prayer with me so I can be saved also". Praise God!! I still have my day to day struggles only now I don't have them alone. I simply talk to God and I ask him to help me through this and guess what? He does. If you are reading this, and you happened to be lost I want you to know that I was lost also until April 25th 2008. There is no better feeling than having God in your life. No matter what you are struggling with, God will help and see you through your struggles if you allow him. How do I know this? Because he said he would. Again I want to say thank you to Falls Creek, and I want to say thank you to my Uncle "Ron Shafer". It's amazing that God used a motorcycle to draw me to him. Thank you Jesus.
