John's Baptism

On Sunday, Pastor Dana had the privilege of baptizing John Jurges! Here is the video of the baptism and his testimony.

John Jurges: I have been baptized as a child and brought up in the church; yet when I became of age to make my own choices, I chose to do what was right in my own eyes. I treated those around me poorly, was an alcoholic, and blamed my problems on God, although I did not believe in him. Yet looking back, he was there at every moment when I needed Him most.

One day out of nowhere, I felt compelled to find my Bible and read it. At first trying to disprove it in my own mind, yet upon my third read into the New Testament, I realized that God literally made the world around us and everything in it. Jesus Christ literally died on the cross and was raised again and He's still coming back again. I found Christ through scripture, He not only gave me the power to quit drinking, but the words to govern the principles of my life.
