Excited about the direction of our young adults ministry for the new year. It was great sitting with our core leaders and in a matter of 30 minutes of conversation, some of the haze I was encountering about the future of that ministry cleared up. This is the power of collaboration. No one person has all of the answers. In fact, the Bible is clear that we “know in part”. 1 Corinthians 13:9 This past year I learned a lot about harnessing the brainpower of those on my team and not feeling the pressure of having to come up with all of the answers. In fact, many times when I humbled myself and allowed the expression of the gifts of others on my team, the end result was far greater than what I could have come up with.

This Sunday night we’ll kick off a new series “Missio Dei — Exploring God’s Mission” that will lay the framework for the missional community we are seeking to build with our young adults. Excited about the name change also, more on that at a later time.
