Back in the Saddle Again

I took a break from blogging this summer, in case you didn't notice :P

I'll write a blog on our summer Small Group and a blog on what's coming up on campus next week. I'll probably also fill you in on the books I've read this summer - so many good ones!

But right now, I'm at "Fund Development 201" for IV staff. We watched a video of Henri Nouwen speaking about how our identity is beloved children of God, not in what we do, what others say about us, or what we have. Instead of allowing an experience of imperfect love or lack of love turn into bitterness, we need to allow God to use it to prune us and bring us back to God's first love for us.

Tonight we'll contact people to see if they're interested in giving to what God's doing on campus. Pray for me that I'm bold, loving, and clear about my vision.
