I heard from 2 independent sources in 3 days about an old friend who for years didn't follow jesus and as of last weekend is 'back'. The details were all from secondary sources, so they may not be right on...still it excites me.
As the story goes his parents (who are just the real deal) had been praying that he'd come back to god on his birthday. A bit weird, but they both are prophetic and stuff. Anyways, last Sunday was his birthday. Last Saturday night his dad was out of town and mom was home along. Someone tried to break in. So she called and asked him to stay over that night. He apparently left his birthday celebration at his bar right away and went to his mother's where everything came to a head. Word has it he's been back to church on his own for 2 weeks and weeping his eyes out.
cool.
