subtle revolution

"There are two kinds of revolutionists, as of most things- a good kind and a bad. The bad revolutionists destroy conventions by appealing to fads- fashions that are newer than conventions. The good do it by appealing to facts that are older than conventions." (G.K. Chesterton)

roots

After years of wandering and searching I have accepted a staff position with Crosswinds Church in St. Peters, MO.

The road has been long and winding, taking me to unexpected places, but I have come to a place where I can settle in for a while. I am excited to become at last an official worker with the Christian and Missionary Alliance. Most importantly, I am a part of a church that is working to expand the Kingdom through actively and fiercely loving our neighbors.

The thrust of my position will be to develop and continue working with our recovery ministry. We are seeing great fruit from work in this area and are anticipating continued growth as we become a church that ministers to the weary, broken, sick, and down-trodden.

To those who have prayed me through times of depression, anxiety, and hopelessness along my pursuit of this desired vocation, I extend my deepest gratitude to you. Thank you for your love and concern. I now seek that you would direct your prayers toward the good work God is doing in the St. Louis area.

Blessings and peace to you in Christ Jesus.

    Congratulations! That is wonderful news! Hey, give Karen a call in our office (a faithful blog reader although she doesn't post) and she'll tell you everything you need to know about Benefits. As we always are telling people repeatedly - do it within 30 days of hire to avoid a 6-month waiting period. You will be a wonderful asset to Crosswinds Church and I'm so happy for them, and for you!!
