Russell Brand

So I watched it carefully, and you and I talked about it as it was happening, and I just thought it was one of the most wonderful things.

And by the way, I just have to just pause for a two-minute story, which I think I've told before, but it's my favorite story ever.

We went to Easter a few years ago and we had dinner the night before.

And you were talking about how you're going to get baptized.

And we went to this Easter service.

It was an outside Easter service on the beach.

And these two kids come up to me.

They were college students from Purdue in Indiana.

And they said, is that Russell Brand?

This is the next morning after we had talked about baptism.

And I said, yeah, that's Russell Brand.

Yeah, Russell Brand, my friend Russell Brand.

They said, that's incredible.

We have been praying in our church that Russell Brand would get baptized.

And we just find ourselves here this morning at this church service.

There's nowhere near where they live.

And I said, I felt emotional hearing this.

I said, we were just talking about his baptism last night.

And then they walked up and introduced themselves to you.

And I just thought, wow.
