In 2006, the Spirit told me to remember where I came from. This was during a time when the church in general was receiving very bad publicity, and I was part of the complaining culture. I wanted my granddaughter, Johanna, on her eleventh birthday, to understand our history and the path the Lord had us on. There is no greater thrill than to see your children and grandchildren become a part of the body of Christ, the Church.
"Brian, remember where you came from."
This is a recounting of some of the incredible events that brought me to faith in Christ, and led to planting and pastoring a Vineyard Church.
