Episode 49: David Brooks, Maui Hippie Commune
Manage episode 424663952 series 3000151
David grew up in unfathomable circumstances in Maui, Hawaii–a hippie commune with ten moms, 23 siblings and a troubled father. As David was finally taken into Child Protective Services, he developed the drug habit of his father and grew even further from the person the Lord wanted him to be.
His brothers made a surprise visit to confront David on his lifestyle. Never having gone to church themselves, they told him to go. And David looked at them and said, “That's for old people. That's for boring people. No thank you!" But after their lecture, he felt a stirring in his inner being.
Everything changed when David visited a church for the first time. Even though he said to himself, “I dare you to bless me,” the blessings came, along with a decision to follow Christ. And as he made the decision to be a 24-7 Christian rather than a Sunday Christian, he went from a druggie to an evangelist in the span of five minutes! His old drug habits disappeared. He soon became the evangelist at his high school and on to a career of discipleship and pastoring.
Today's Sendoff features Hawaiian ukulele artist, Mike Amore, in his musical prayer for Hawaiians devastated by wildfires.
