Washed by the Water

This past Wednesday we got together with our amazing community group plus a few extra and had us a good ole southern baptism. A few of the guys in our group had never been dunked before and decided it was time. We went out to a lodge that was close to a river. The guys shared why they decided to get baptized and then we all went down to the river and watched. It was one of the most incredible things I have ever witnessed. Marc had the privilege of baptizing 3 of the guys and was humbled by them asking.


























Afterwards we had a delicious southern meal including fried chicken, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, green beans, rolls, salad and strawberry shortcake.
That night will be one that we won't ever forget. We have had the privilege of leading/co-leading a community group for the past 5 years with some new people and some others that have been with us since the beginning. They all mean so much to us and we are so grateful for each couple. Praise Jesus for a great community that surrounds us with love, accountability and prayers.



Romans 6
We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

Fellowship Little Rock

While I was home this past weekend, I was able to attend FBC of Little Rock. They have just moved to a new, massive building (a little on the ridiculous side), but it was my first time to go in a long time.
The service was amazing. The new FSM pastor, Brandon Barnard spoke to all the venues. I had never heard him speak, but he was incredible. He definitely brought the word and I really appreciated that. He spoke on Acts 3. The main question that he asked that convicted me was "Are you giving Jesus to anyone?" He then stated some of the reasons we might not be sharing Jesus. Which were, are we being leashed by our fears, busyness, or numbness? I think so often these days, when people ask us how we are, our immediate response is "Hi, I'm busy!" I see so many families being torn apart due to them purposely staying busy. It was a great refresher and reminder to be mindful to share Jesus! That could be by meeting the needs of others physically and emotionally.
Anyways it was a great message! If you are into listening to sermons, this one was wonderful. Yo can listen to it at
