A couple of weeks ago, I was interviewed by Rev magazine about what’s happening at NewSpring. They asked about all the people who have received Jesus in recent months (1,124 people in less than 4 months). They also asked about what’s unique at NewSpring that might explain what’s happening. Among other things I shared:
“I know in my life, when I accepted Christ and experienced life change, I didn’t keep that to myself—I wanted to tell others about it. I think that’s what we’re seeing here. People are experiencing life change. We’re seeing practical things like healed marriages, winning freedom from addictions, freedom from financial challenges. Because once God gets hold of your life He brings order to it. When that starts to happen, people tell their friends about it.
“I sometimes get frustrated when people talk about our church being too big. I ask, ‘What do you want us to do? Do you want us to tell people that they can’t tell their friends about us any more?’”
