What happens when an LSD-using, rock-and-roll lifestyle collides with a genuine encounter with Jesus Christ? This raw, powerful testimony traces one man's journey from religious duty to spiritual reality, revealing the transformative power of walking in the Spirit.
Born during the baby boomer generation and spiritually reborn during the Jesus movement at age 13, the speaker candidly shares his wandering years through drugs and darkness. His turning point arrives at age 21 during the charismatic renewal—a dramatic shift from going through religious motions to experiencing genuine spiritual empowerment.
The revelation that changed everything? "There's a difference between just reading the Bible and having the Author read it with you." This perspective transformed Scripture from a dead religious text into a living message, beginning a forty-year journey of continual spiritual discovery. Drawing from Galatians 5-6, the teaching explores the stark contrast between works of the flesh and fruit of the Spirit, offering practical insight on maintaining spiritual vitality without burning out.
Walking in the Spirit isn't mystical or unattainable—it's practical cooperation with God's presence that produces supernatural results. The balanced rhythm of work, rest, worship, and play creates sustainable spiritual growth that avoids the common pitfalls of weariness and disillusionment. As we persevere in this Spirit-led journey, we participate in God's ultimate purpose: His kingdom covering the earth "as the waters cover the sea."
