Control

Control is somewhat of an illusion.

That was clear to us as our house shook on Wednesday morning during the strongest earthquake we have experienced in our time in Guatemala. We gauge the severity of the quake based on just how much our light fixtures are shaking. When they are rattling, we stay in bed. When they are swinging, we exit the house. That morning, we exited the house.

Whether our light fixtures are still, rattling or shaking, our peace is still found in His sovereignty.

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters. Psalms? ?24:1-2? ?NIV??

Next Gen

Typically you would find our son Clay behind the camera, but a few weeks ago he had the opportunity to share in front of the lens about the future of the church and what was in his lunchbox as a kid.

Give this New Life message a listen, I think you will find hope for our future there.
The message starts at around the 10:30 mark.
