Thom Black - The Revolution - Opening - Barna Group

We are live... we have internet connection in the conference hall. :-)

Story about childhood bladder issue... We will see how this goes. I am not sure where he is going... He is sharing personal things about a bladder problem using descriptive terms that I have never heard in such a public setting. Everyone is laughing and gasping throughout the story. His vulnerability has set a tone that is amazing. He is not the most gifted presenter, yet his realness is captivating.

He had a urinary track scare from childhood and kept the secret of the problem for 40 years. After telling a very interesting story about disclosing the problem to his wife, working with doctors, and having surgeries, He finally came to a realization about how stupid it was to keep the secret for so long. He has now healed up and can't believe that he kept the medical problem a secret for so long. He could have found freedom 40 years ago from the pain and issues surrounding his problem.

Are we keeping secrets? If so, why if you have an opportunity to have freedom.

We went to prayer to ask God to reveal secrets in our hearts that we may need to reveal. A number of people prayed out loud in the assembly for healing in those peoples lives.

Powerful... more to come.
