Today we visited a local university to check out there church planting department. We received some great info and tools. We were busted by a church member who was in the office also, she had just returned from a mission trip in Mexico. We quickly changed the subject as we have not shared any of our intentions with anyone yet. We were actually there to pick up an evangelism planner tool to help us with planning outreaches. We spent most of the morning doing assessments and downloading a billion how to manuals. It can be overwhelming trying to digest the variety of methods and strategies. We both did well on the assessments and would make excellent church planters. Too bad it's not that simple. We are blessed to have 10 years of paid ministry experience and have held pretty much every position in a church except Senior Pastor. We are scared, excited, overwhelmed, grateful and moved that God would allow us to pioneer a church. Our kids are excited about this new season of our lives as well. There is so much to be done, but I know in God's strength and timing we will be just fine.
