Loss Propels Faith in Synjyn Days
by Matt Winkeljohn
Sting Daily -
Synjyn Days is an open-minded young man in ways made more compelling by the fact that he’s so deeply committed to his beliefs. The more you learn about him, the more you become convinced that his two greatest dedications are to God and man - very big-picture conventions with whom interactions can be infinitely personal.
There is rarity in Days’ degree of faith. His warmth and conviction are uncommon.
He still goes home to Marietta every Sunday, even during the school year, to attend the Pleasant Grove Missionary Baptist Church. Although he’s not in the choir anymore he was for a long time even though he said, “I’m not that good; I just kind of blend in.” Understatement alert: Days once wrote and delivered a sermon at Pleasant Grove.
