Jesus Paid It All.

Lawrence has had a particularly turbulent year. From the heights of his band and youth group growing in integrity, faith and recognition each week, becoming a dad, to dealing with his wife’s eye problems and his dad battling with Alzheimer’s. Lawrence has been stuck in the middle of all of this.

But still, he wears not only a brave face, but one of the bravest faces. And he can only wear that because of the extreme trust and faith he has in God.

He recounted the story to me, of the day that his dad was admitted, a friend gave him a loan of a CD. It was the Passion 2006 Conference CD, containing a song called “Jesus Paid It All”. He listened avidly, and to this day, through it all, still says aloud “Praise God, thank you Jesus” as the song builds toward its climax.

Jesus really has overcome the world.

Praise the one who paid my debt,
And raised this life up from the dead.

This is a call to prayer, thanksgiving, offering, sacrifice, praise and worship that Fusion is all about.

- Andrew Gordon
