WOW….
Posted in: Church Plantingis all i can say in reference to just how ridiculous and mind blowing God is. for those of you who know or have spent time with me, “wow” is used when i am in shock, rendered inarticulate, or when i am excited beyond comprehension.
WOW! WOW! WOW! WOW! WOW! WOW! WOW! WOW!
OK here goes. The news I had been holding onto for some time now that well, I almost exploded at least twice… for real!
On tomorrow, Esther and I will pick up the keys to an amazing house that my family will be living in, for free! Yes I said it, RENT FREE! Did I mention we are moving to Dallas, GA? Yes we are moving… why? Because that is where this beautiful house is!!! That is why! Let me explain.
I am the new church planter intern for West Ridge Church!!!!!!! I don’t know if you truly grasp the depths of my excitement. I will work on staff there from August to May of next year. Learning, learning and learning some more, getting my hands dirty, observing staff meetings, participating in those meetings, working toward a better understanding of successful church structure, etc. I will also be attending West Ridge’s Church Planting School this fall as well. I am a nerd! So Jim Akins called, we went to see the house, my wife and i fell in love, and tomorrow we go and get the keys!!! For the duration of the intern, we have the house. I am so thankful to God and West Ridge. I am so pumped about being there that once again I could just explode!
I really want to extend a heartfelt thank you and all the appreciation I have in my body to the entire West Ridge Family, Lead Pastor Brian Bloye, Jim, and everyone else who has welcomed me and my family thus far!!!! I love you guys and cannot wait to both learn from and give out of my gifts, time, and money!
There is more exciting news coming very soon. I know, but you have to wait until the proper time! Trust me it will be worth it!
