Yesterday, Kyle Lake, author of Understanding God’s Will and (re)Understanding Prayer was killed during a baptism. Kyle was the pastor of the University Baptist Church in Waco, TX. I had quite a few friends attend Baylor and all have spoken very highly of Lake and his church. Kyle also worked with the Relevant Magazine and the Relevant Network of which I am a subscriber.
Please keep the Lake family in your prayers and please pray for the UBC congregation as they continue to reach out to the students at Baylor University during this difficult time.
Update: Relevant Magazine has a created a message board for family, friends, and others who would like to post about what Kyle and his minstry meant to them.
Below I have link various stories about the incident and I will continue to update as more information comes in:

Micheal,
Wasn’t this the church Chris Seay began? As I read the account this morning, I was devasted and pray that God will keep showing his love for UBC-Waco.
In other news, did you enjoy the concert?
Take care,
Mark
Mark-
You are correct. It was started in 95 and Kyle had been the pastor for about 7 years. I had read his books and really learned alot from them. This was a terrible tragedy. Kyle had a wife, a daughter and twin boys. He was only 33.
