Guest speaker will be Brad Tootle of Jesup, who’ll share his powerful testimony. Tootle was taken from death while in a homosexu a l lifestyle to deliverance and true life through the blood of Jesus Christ.
His passion now is to watch people who have a misinterpretation of who they identify as being like crossing a bridge into the true identity God says they are. Among his favorite scriptures is Romans 2: 4, which says God’s kindness leads us to repentance.
He will be sharing many more scriptures that have changed his life.
