Month: August 2013

I’ve been thinking about this post on and off for a couple of weeks now.  I’m still not sure how to go about it, but here goes.

All of you know (or at least you should) that things change.  My life is now in a season of change.  I will be leaving BMCR the end of September.  When I started my internship here in 2006 I decided to stay because I saw God working in the hearts of Arrowhead students.  My reason for working here has always been Arrowhead.  With Arrowhead not running this year I have decided it is time to go.  I will be moving to an apartment in Columbus the first of October.  I do not yet have a job.  I’m also planning on getting married in November (we haven’t got the date set in stone yet).

Like I said, I’m in a season of change.  It has (for the most part) been a good seven years here at BMCR/ABC.  I will miss it.  I’m excited to see what comes next.  I’m also scared of what is coming next.  God has been teaching me to trust Him, and I fear I have a lot more to learn in that area.  In the mean time I ask for your prayers.  I need a job.  I’m getting married and frankly I have no idea how to be a good husband.  As I leave a ministry “career” I want to make sure I still disciple and minister to those God will put in my life.  I am also asking that you pray for camp, as they now need a new I.T. guy.  Those can be hard to find some times.

I thank God for the time He has given me here, and I’m looking forward to what is coming next.

Wow, a lot has happened since I posted last, and there is no way I could ever cover all of it.  The year of Arrowhead went well.  This summer while long has gone ok.  It has been more disorganized than usual.   We have one week left, and then it is fall cleanup.  We did get Internet here finally and it has been glorious.  We’ve gone from having a 23 GB a month limit to downloading between 150-250 GB a month.  I am really not sure how we made it on satellite.

I had my two month sabbatical this year, April through May.  I needed it.  I didn’t realize how short two months really is.  It took me about three weeks to stop being tired (and that was in the “off” season).  I spent the first month attending classes at Arrowhead.  The second month I visited some friends in Idaho, and went back to Minnesota to see the family.

I have nothing else I’m going to report.  I’ll try and do this a mite more regularly.
