I was on vacation with my family last week and I have to say it really reminded me of the Grizwald Family Vacation. I’m exhausted! There is nothing like home. But we did have the chance to visit Barefoot Community Church in North Myrtle Beach. The environment there was very relaxed and friendly. They meet in an old theater which adds a cool factor. As I was standing during the worship I looked over and saw tons of names written all over the walls.
It was at that moment that I lost it. One God, One church, One passion. It’s always refreshing to visit other churches. They always do things a little differently but there is still that trace of oneness in the air. I later found out that Shane and Cherie Duffey, both on staff, visited a church in Charlotte who also had names written on the walls.
Being on staff now for almost seven years and seeing what God has done here through the people he has called together (both staff and volunteers) blows my mind. Being reminded of the blessings and favor God has given NewSpring brings so much joy. For all those on staff or volunteering in ministry, you are doing a work here that goes far beyond the walls of this building. The Influence and movement you guys are leading is evident on the walls and in the passion of churches around the country. It is a great pleasure to to serve with all of you. As P always says, it’s only the beginning. I cannot wait to see what God is going to do next. It is my prayer that my life displays the love of Jesus and that God will use me to the fullest to make his name famous. Make our passion contagious, Lord.
