Rick Plunkett Testimony Part 2

I think where we left off was I was telling you all about meeting my fiancée and how she brought me into a relationship, but truly one of the key points of our relationship with Jesus was meeting Mark Thomas, who is a good friend, personal close friend, and a mentor of mine in American Family Fitness.

We met him in the gym.

He had just finished his workout.

He was turning around to leave, and the Holy Spirit spoke to him and told him, Go speak to them.

And he came and spoke to us and brought us into a relationship with Jesus.

And we went from there to being on fire for the Lord's hood.

And we even left at one point, went to Nashville, got hooked on drugs, came back.

But when we came back, the first place we seek was the church.

Mark is a pastor at Thrive Church, Richmond City Campus, because it was our home church.

And when we came back, we were ready to get back into serving.

And I can tell you, serving the Lord is a feeling like no other because he will show up like no other.

There are situations we've been in where we were almost evicted out of our apartments, but God saved us.

We had situations where there was stuff, provisions given to us because of the Lord.

Mark had seen that we needed a car because we were getting transportation to and from church from his older assistant pastor.

Shout out to Stephen Walker, if you're listening, my brother.

We miss you, Stephen.

Come visit soon.

And Mark had seen a post on the Richmond City Campus Facebook page of a member trying to get rid of a car.

And he emailed me.

I think it was on my birthday, wasn't it, Mark?

Yeah, very cool story.

It was on your birthday, which made it even more special, right? Yes.

So we looked at that, and the one thing this guy said to us was, get this car out of my pocket a lot, because I'm going to get him.

I think he was goofing around, joking around, because that's the type of individual this person is.

This is a really close friend and a church member of me and Mark's church.
