Jesus healed the ear of the soldier who came to arrest him. Tommy Tyson tells campers at the 1968 Kentucky Lake CFO that it is better to “shoot them with biscuits” than with bullets. From there he moves to the resurrection, and to a baptism in the Holy Spirit that turns out to be a love affair with Jesus.
Tommy Tyson describes a woman who protested that she could not pray for her sister to be baptized in the Holy Spirit, when she had not received it herself. She laid hands on her anyway, and she was filled first. Whatever you want from God, he tells the Kentucky Lake CFO in 1968, start moving in that direction.
Ruth Carter Stapleton recalls being pushed to speak to a hostile ladies club luncheon of neighbors who knew every one of her faults, though she had been in tears the night before. She uses the story to teach that becoming a full son of God means daily choosing to decrease so Christ can increase. She brought that lesson to the 1968 Kentucky Lake CFO.
A friend mailed Tommy Tyson a bright orange card printed only with “WOW,” and he took it as the Lord saying, “I want you to live in my wow.” He reads to the Kentucky Lake CFO in 1968 of the father who begged Jesus, “if you can do anything.” Faith, he answers, is the trust we already use every day, turned toward him.
Ruth Carter Stapleton teaches on prayer that lets go instead of demanding. She tells the Kentucky Lake CFO in 1968 how a friend’s stolen pencil sharpener was returned by three neighborhood boys, once she prayed Luke’s words and stopped trying to get it back. She adds her own story of preaching through an abscessed tooth that healed overnight once the ordeal was over.
At the Kentucky Lake CFO in 1968, Ruth Carter Stapleton opens with a camper’s report that her doctor found nothing left to operate on after prayer. She then traces how surrendering her own marriage to Christ transformed her husband. He came home from his conversion saying “Ruth, I know Jesus,” and then “Ruth, I know you.”
A Michigan pastor got mad, drove away from camp, and could not get home for the love the campers beamed after him. Tommy Tyson opens the Kentucky Lake CFO in 1968 with that story. He teaches that the Holy Spirit quickens body and mind, but first surfaces what we have refused to face.
