Sorry for the sporadic blogging the last few days. Life has been hectic and the pace has been break-neck.
Last Friday afternoon, Mandy and I agreed in principle to accept the Preaching Ministry position with the Marble Falls church of Christ. I visited with the elders at the Village on Sunday afternoon and received their blessing to relocate my family and my ministry to Marble Falls. They asked that I make a statement to the church on Sunday afternoon, which I did amid an avalanche of crocodile tears.
Marble Falls is located in central Texas, in the heart of the beautiful Texas hill country. It is a community about 45 miles west of Austin and 70 miles north of San Antonio. The church membership numbers 400 and the growth opportunities are through the roof.
Mandy and I, after much prayer and reflection, believe God has gifted us for the opportunities that abound at Marble Falls. The vision of the Marble Falls elders, coupled with what we believe to be our ministry strengths, is an ideal match.
So, we will be moving soon deep into the heart of Texas for a new adventure in our ministry to the Lord.
I hope all of you who faithfully read my blog (and now I know who and where you are, thanks to my new and improved sitemeter) will be diligent in prayer for Tori, Trae, Mandy and me. We covet your prayers in the weeks ahead -- that the transition will be smooth on both ends and that the kingdom of God will advance in both locations as a result of what we clearly perceive to be His will.
