Wow, didn’t expect to be this busy. Since beginning my adventure as a lead pastor
at Northside I’ve been on the move. I’ve
had down time, but I just haven’t had a desire to write/blog anything. Here’s a brief update:
Stepping into a lead pastor role has been great! I’ve loved it! I feel I’m right where God wants me. That is a great feeling. A lot of challenges come with moving to a new
place and starting a new job. You have
to find all new places to shop and buy groceries. Fortunately, there are plenty of great spots
(easy to get to too) to grab a burger at around here. We have a Jimmy Johns 2 mins away.
I recently invested in Richard Foster’s new book Sanctuary
of the Soul (Journey into meditative prayer) and Scot McKnight’s The King Jesus
Gospel. I’m looking to use bits and
pieces of each for upcoming sermon series.
Speaking of that, I’m really enjoyed preaching on a weekly basis. Is it challenging? Yes.
But I feel it is helping me mature and draw closer to God. I’ve started a series at Northside on the
church. We are using Paul’s letter
Ephesians to find out what the church is.
There have been some great discoveries for me about the church. I’m loving what I’m learning as I live with
God’s Word for this study. We have spent
the past 3 weeks in chapter 1 of Ephesians and will be moving into chapter 2 in
a week. Some rich stuff here!
Well, I hope I can get back to a more regular groove again
with blogging. Until then, it may be
sporadic.
God bless!
