A cause for pause - I am really stoked on the last month of sermons at church. Bill, Mac, Josh and Steele have killed it and really really hit home on a lot of areas in my life. I'm also elated that they've addressed hard, but necessary truth to the church. Some very pointed topics that serve as good reminders and new things to consider in the continual sanctification of the body. It takes about 20 years to reform a church, and I'm working tirelessly, hard, and with joy towards that end. Not in a way that would make us be Presbyterian or Lutheran, but in a way that takes a seeker sensitive group and actually reaffirms the Saints as the Church and that corporate worship is for the believer to bring and offer worship to God by way of adoration, praise, opening their hearts for the message, conviction, encouragement, and obedient participation in ministries and evangelism.

This D.A. Carson book is amazing, and I'm so glad God has kept me single to participate in this study.
These sections in Luke we'll go over have some really incredible things to learn.
Real, authentic Christianity that I pray causes waves in SLC more.
It's been a decade, but it also feels like the beginning.
Here I am, Lord, teach me your ways, show me your grace.
Soli Deo Gloria.
