"If blood's flowin' through my veins
And there's air to breathe,
Life to live,
Then I've got a song to sing
On this normal day,
September 22nd..."
~Nathan Angelo


Today is day one of our youth camps. And this evening, over 40 young people became followers of Jesus. I couldn't keep from crying as their hands shot up in the air, as they flooded to the front of the tent, as I prayed with some young women who just made the biggest (and best) decision of their lives, as I looked around and saw our interns experiencing this incredible moment alongside me, as I hugged a young girl who sobbed...

As the holy moment ended, I was overwhelmed with the thought: This is what it's all about.

I've got a song to sing. And sing it I shall.
