Holly W. was baptized on her 30th birthday. She said her twenties were pretty rough and she wanted to start her thirties right. I told her baptism is new life and the most amazing way to plunge into a relationship with Jesus by enacting what he did for us in his death on the cross and his glorious resurrection. And I told her she is really–truly–forgiven, washed and made new. We are the bride of Christ, and this is our wedding ceremony.
You really are forgiven

My wife, Jill, and I have three children: Ashley, Anna, and Jacob. We live in Broken Arrow and I preach for The Journey: a New Generation Church of Christ in Tulsa (www.thejourneychurch.faith). I have a B.A. in Journalism and an M.Div. from Harding School of Theology in Memphis, Tennessee. Before coming to Tulsa, we lived in Nashville, Tennessee four years, where I worked with The Zoe Group and Wineskins Magazine. From 1994-2001 we lived in Jinja, Uganda, where we worked with a church planting team, an experience that forever changed our lives. With Randy Harris, I co-authored Living Jesus: Doing What Jesus Says in the Sermon on the Mount and you can learn about other books I've written at my web site, www.gregtaylor.org. My most recent book co-authored with Randy is Daring Faith: Meeting Jesus in the Book of John.
