Monday Musings
- Sold our home in Cincinnati last week. Yep…it’s a big deal. I am thinking of creative ways to celebrate. The normal mortgage burning just doesn’t cut it…it’s gonna have to involve a big explosion of some kind.
- God absolutely delivered in our world this past week…in a amazing way. I am learning to lean into him and trust him more every day.
- That trust flows into every area of my life…including how I lead.
- I will learning to trust in a God sized vision that requires us to lean into him. I can honestly say this…I am excited about the vision of our church.
- Slowly the vision has grown into a picture of our future. God has led and created opportunities unique to our mission field right here…right now.
- Did I mention that we sold our house on Friday? Well, we did.
- AND…I am excited about the movement Jesus is leading me to make within my ‘living out Christ likeness.’
- I will be sharing some of this journey over the next several weeks…still trying to unwrap all that is happening within me right now.
- Right now I am sitting beside my dad’s bed in the hospital as he is recovering from a back surgery today. I am praying for these new rods and spacers to redeem the years that the pain has stolen.
- Yesterday at nbc marked a new day for us as we look forward to having Margaret Tyler join us. She brings a whole new level to this role of pastor…I am going to have to step up to keep up. Can’t wait until December when she joins us full-time.
- Margaret is so much more than a children’s pastor…that is why we are calling her Pastor of Families. She is vital to what God has in store for us…and I am pumped about standing beside her in ministry.
- As Larry was famous for saying, “This is good but the best is yet to come!”
- Did I mention that we sold our house back in Cincinnati? After an unbelievable 18 month, up and down journey (more down than up) we have learned some valuable lessons about life, friends, and ourselves. I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything…we’re broke…but rich.

18 months and I am still following your blog…so glad you are finally free of an extra house in Cincinnati. Looking forward to hearing more exciting ways God is working in and with nbc!
no hoo-dey?
One of my favorite memories of my son’s antics was the line: “but mom, we didn’t blow anything up, we were just pressurizing things!” Hope you had fun “pressurizing” instead of just burning your mortgage!
