How is it possible to love 47 people so much in only about a week of knowing them?
I’ll tell you.
Training camp.
Allow me to explain to you this divine mystery.
Imagine almost 50 young adults from all over the States and Canada traveling to the beautiful hills of Tennessee. They only know of each other through what they have read on blogs or creeped on Facebook (we all did it). Coming together for 9 days to prepare for a radical journey full of redemption and freedom unlike anything they could have ever imagined. The adventure of a lifetime. Together they are challenged physically, emotionally, and spiritually, allowing the Spirit to lead them further than they’ve ever gone before. Fighting with and for one another, stepping into and taking hold of their divine destinies as sons and daughters of the Living God. Chasing fearlessly the heart of the Father, a fierce love bursts into flame for one another and for the nations.
They are no longer the same people they were when they first arrived Saturday night.
Freedom has overtaken them. Healing has began. Holy passion rushes through their veins.
Many have become one. Strangers have now become family with a bond thicker than blood. Each and every one of them a magnificent reflection of Jesus.
Reckless lovers. Freedom fighters. Redeemed ragamuffins. Messengers of hope. Proclaimers of healing. Vessels of the Spirit. Carriers of peace. Radical adventurers abandoned to the love of God, living for a holy calling so much greater than themselves.
Not content with just dreaming of change but choosing to be the change this world desperately needs.
Get ready world, X Squad is bringin’ the Kingdom!
Peace, Love & Isaiah 61,
“California”
