I haven’t watched the video, but I wanted to give a SHOUT OUT from Starkville, MS. The Passion tour just kicked off and I got to play volunteer and help brad, charlie, steve, and the rest of the guys. It was an amazing afternoon with some people whom God definitely has his hand on. Thanks for coming to starkvegas Passion you will definitely have some more people signing up to come be a part of the movement after tonight.

I wanted to write a comment to you to thank you for all the work that you do with Passion. I first came to find out who you were through the “Fruitcake & Icecream” DVD at my church life group last week. I wish I’d known you long before then – I could’ve used you over the years, but as you say God puts everything into our lives at exactly the right time. In the time since I’ve been listening to your podcasts and watching your DVDs, your talks have spoken unbelievable volumes of reality and hope into my heart and my life and made my walk with Jesus vibrant, as never before.
I’ve been particularly moved by the Lost in Translation series that has been going through the podcast lately. It is a blessing to hear someone speak the truth about choices and wisdom and depending upon God in every situation we face.
I’ve been facing difficult choices and life circumstances lately. Two years ago, I lost my Mom to Leukemia. During the time she’d been battling the disease, I put off college of course to help her out. I fully believed God would heal her because of her faith and all of our faith in Him. But on January 2008, He took her to be with Him instead. Her faith never waived at all, but I have to admit that in the days following her death I took a major nose dive into the cliff wall. I stumbled around in the dark and in desperation to do something- anything -besides stay where I was, I accepted a placement at Southern New Hampshire University, a secular college, in a degree program that I didn’t have a lot of passion for, with no clear dreams or hopes, and no strong connection to God. I didn’t go to church, I didn’t read my Bible or pray, I didn’t want anything to do with God. He was, after all, the one that took away my Mom.
In May of this year, I was invited to visit Africa with a group from SNHU on a sort of a mission trip – it was secular missions, let me put it that way. We brought computers over and taught non profit organizations how to use them to better their business. We got to spend a day at various places we were donating the computers to, and one of the places was a “drop in center”, which is like a boys and girls club, but for orphans living in child-reared households, where they can get a meal and blankets and interact with others safely. While I was there, I was standing in the midst of these parentless children, as they sang hymns and Bible songs and smiles big smiles, and I realized that all the anger and hurt I was holding inside about my Mom having died was completely pointless because there are others who have lost even more than I have and still believe in God that created them. They still had faith. These tiny, broken hearts could still sing the lines of Jesus Loves Me boldly, despite all they’d been through.
Not only that, but I heard God speak to me that day.
He said to me, “Hannah, this is what I want you to do. This is where I want you to be. You and Me, we’ve got some work to do.”
I’ve since transferred to Moody Bible Institute, where I’m working on my degree with plans to use it to become a missionary. I’m not sure where God is leading me, and there’s been many set backs, even since returning to God this summer, but I know that wherever I am headed it’s strongly in God’s hands.
I wanted to thank you for being the voice that keeps me centered on God during my work out time, during my resting time, and during my time when I’m mulling over everything in my mind at work behind a cash register. Thank you, Louie, for being such a great, God-driven speaker. You’re a blessing in many lives, and I look forward to the day when I’ll be able to come to a Passion Conference and hear you speak in real life! I pray that day comes soon.
Missing your updates on the 268 Generation link. I have been brought closer to you, my wife, and God through your messages. The latest, even though it was from 2007 Passion, kept me going for awhile. But it has been about 1 month since the last update. Keep ‘em coming. Thanks!
this is so exciting. Louie, you don’t know how happy i was to see the list. i can’t just pick ONE right now, but God will pull my heart. this is an awesome idea. God will move. Jesus be glorified!
yeah!! it’s an awesome video. felt like i could relate to one of those who has scribbled what life means for them.. =) wow..i can’t wait for passion 2010.
