As most of us do at this time of year, my thoughts this week are turning to the things I am thankful for, and that includes a LOT of things. I am truly blessed beyond measure and have so much to be thankful for. So…
- thanks to the many people I’ve served under and with for teaching me life and ministry lessons that I draw on every day;
- thanks to the people I’ve led for letting me make mistakes and learn lessons the hard way sometimes, and still following;
- thanks to the kids who have been in my ministry…there is no one more important to me in ministry than you;
- thanks to friends for showing what caring is really all about, and for being there for the long haul;
- thanks to Mom & Dad for being an example of faithfulness of over 50 years of marriage, and for serving God sacrificially at your own physical, financial and emotional expense;
- thanks to my sis & bro in law, Lisa & Mark for your friendship, support and faithful example of serving in ministry, caring for orphans (they’ve adopted 3 kids from China & Uganda) and reaching beyond borders to tell the Good News;
- thanks to my boys, Taylor & Garret…I really can’t imagine being more proud or pleased with my sons;
My Amazing Wife
- thanks to my wife, Michele…no words could ever adequately say how important you are to me or how I am what I am because of you!
When it comes right down to it, it’s all about what I always say ministry is really all about, right? Relationships! I am incredibly thankful for the relationships I have in my life…I am blessed beyond measure!
Thank you!
