Personal Note:
Thank you for taking time to visit my blog. I hope what you find here will be an encouragement to you.

John,
I remember the go ole days at Southco, hanging parts on racks building up huge black boogers for harvesting after the bell rang. Wanna hear something funny? I’m planting a church in about 9months. I’m a youth pastor now at http://www.gracefamilychurch.org but in the spring they are sending Kelly and I out to start a new work about 15 minutes north of the church. We are excited and scared. We are planting with the help of A.R.C. (association of related churches http://www.relatedchurches.com) Shoot me an email or something so we can catch up.
