Flash's Story

This morning, we watched the final segment of The Truth Project in Sunday School. The highlight of the lesson was hearing the story of a tatoo artist named Flash.

His story was defined by a terrible childhood with a monster of a mom and an absent father. As a child, Flash went to church and recounts of one woman who really made a difference in his life. She was a Christian who really loved other people and would check up on Flash when he was younger. Flash says that religions are crap, but what that woman had was true Christianity.

I really wish I could post the video of that interview (darn copyright laws) for everyone to see. The video really reminded me of the power loving people around us, no matter what they are like. It made a huge impact on Flash. Everyone who experiences that kinda love couldn’t deny that our faith was something special.

I need to live more like that. Are you aware of the people around you who need to be loved?
