Twenty-six days until
I am back on U.S. soil. My time on
the field with S Squad is quickly drawing to a close.
The past 3ish months
of squad leading I have determinedly poured into 61 people who have captured my
heart in a supernatural way. I
have tirelessly prayed, cried, rejoiced, challenged with these phenomenal
racers and couldn’t be more proud of the destiny they are walking in and what
they will continually walk in.
With only a short few
weeks left, we have asked the squad to take another step of faith in this
journey. Lauren, Tim and I have
officially passed the torch. With
it only be a short time on the field with these 61, I cannot express how much
of a challenge it was for me to take these next steps. To allow two others finish something I
was asked to start. As soon as we
presented our new leaders I felt a shift in this squad. It was if the anointing the Lord had
given me to lead this squad was released to these two new leaders! And then as the squad gathered around
and began to pray it just overcame this squad.
So without further
adieu I would like to present to you….two people who have a fight, a hunger, a
passion, a desire to see 59 racers see His Kingdom, go from Glory to
Glory.
Meet S-squads
new SQUAD LEADERS!!
Scotty Barron and Shannon Ahola
Scotty
Is a man who walks
with high amounts of courage and a heart that cares and considers others. His passionate pursuit of the King and
His Kingdom can be quite unbelievable at times. His passion to know the word and live it out is contagious. He is a man who walks in High honor and
high courage and is
always seeking more. He hears the Lords voice and walks in boldness and sharing what the Lord
has put on his heart.
Being in Scotty’s
presence you feel safe, you feel like you have known him for years and he is a
communicator of love and grace! He not only has big dreams for himself but for
this squad.
He is going to bring
this squad into excellence, and what it means to walk in the Lord’s boldness. He wants to see people to go from
greatness to greatness!

Shannon
I can tell you from
training camp I knew this woman of God has what it takes to lead a squad of 59
phenomenal people. There is
something about the way Shannon lives her life that is contagious. This woman walks in a faith only the
Lord can give and she does that courageously.
I love seeing her
have joy when she sees the power of the Lord working in other people’s
lives. She is woman who is going
to lead this squad in the things of Spirit because her obedience with the
Lord. She is a woman of true depth
simply by being the women of genuine character that she is.
Shannon doesn’t let fear stand in
her way. This one will fight for S
Squad with everything inside of her. She will call the greatness out of others and believe in them when they
don’t believe in themselves.

I couldn’t be anymore
sure that the Lord has called these two for this time and season of
leadership. I could not have chose
two people that I have more confidence in to this job and do it well.
They are two amazing
people that the Lord is going to use them to challenge and lead this
squad. I would love if you would
take time to lift them up in prayer as they are walking in this new role and
put on this oversized coat. I couldn’t
be more blessed to be a part of their journey to watch them grow into this
role.
