The Investment

I have been doing youth ministry now for a long time. Long enough that I could for sure call it a career it seems. I have been doing this for 13 1/2 years now, and most of those have been full time.  It has been something that I have loved doing, something that has been full of joy (and a little bit of pain) and has been very rewarding. I have built relationships with students over the years that I am able to still nurture today. These have been an incredible part of what God has called me to do.

Down the Road

Roni has a problem when it comes to driving. In fact, sometimes we don't even call it that, we just call it exploring because that seems to fit better. The fact is Roni is a bit directionally challenged. Even when we have lived someplace for a while, she at times still has a hard time being able to get around. It can be very frustrating and hard to understand at times.

Heaven on earth

Monday night in our Bible study/discussion group we were talking about Ecclesiastes and had a very good discussion about the first three chapters of the book. We were talking about all the things that The Teacher (believed to have been Solomon) had to say and how discouraged he was it seemed. He had one resounding theme to these first three chapters: Everything is pointless like chasing the wind.
