It was nine months of intensive inner healing and training in supernatural ministry. We learned how to hear God’s voice, how to prophesy, how to pray for people’s healing, how to prepare and deliver a sermon, and how to be a Family who has healthy personal boundaries and communicates bravely.
It was rather bittersweet to see it end.
But I’m a different person now. And that is sweet indeed.
Reflecting back on the past nine months of my life at SOSL, this is what I wrote in my journal:
“I am so grateful for all the ways SOSL has impacted my life. The change that has taken place could not have come on its own. Through life as I knew it. Lasting change like this can only come through commitment. Through saying YES to the long haul. To the sacrifices that inevitably have to be made. And it comes through community. Not the kind of community where you see people once or twice a week and maybe you hang out on the weekends. I’m talking about the kind of community that is closer than Family. The kind of community that will intentionally spend over 20 hours a week together actively pursuing God’s Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. We now have a deep, rich, eternal history with these souls. This must be the kind of community that is essential to LIFE. To abundant life on earth. It must be one of the keys to heaven invading earth.”
And here is an entry in Drew’s journal as a glimpse into what God has been speaking to him & what Drew says regarding his transformation after school:
“Just the sight of you causes darkness to tremble & flee! You are such an antidepressant… Yes, you know whose kid you are. The Light you carry brings order in place of the ungodly orders. Where you tread, Spring will follow. Have confident in your declared expectations. I am revealing to you so much more of My Goodness because of your selfish grip on My Goodness. Brothers host My Presence because you’ve opened doors… My Name is on you, and I will bless you. You’re one of the lovers of Yahweh and your garden will become brimming in fullness. It’s knowing who you are that is your mighty tool. Spiritual roots are ready to be discovered and flee in the Presence at a word: ‘Go.’ You are a son who smells of His Father’s Presence and that is Mighty. Nothing can deny you’ve been around Me. You’ll start seeing it shake around you. You are loved. My Words are true: you are LOVED. That includes by your brothers and sisters, your mothers and fathers: you are LOVED.”
“This school has brought Lori & I such a transformation, individually and as a couple. I am not who I was anymore. This must be exactly what it is to go from glory to glory. Scriptures constantly came to life in this school, in the middle of this wonderful community of people we found ourselves in. Old things literally passed away, while the new took its place! But this hasn’t ended. We’re now living our lives with continually renewed minds.”
