6 weeks = new record of NOT blogging...

I LOVE Virginia Beach! It is a cool town, with amazing people, super amazing students who let me hang with them, and such a sweet church where everyone shares an appreciation towards God for allowing us to be a part of what He's doing. And that's not even mentioning the fact that I live right next to the ocean...

I miss Atlanta though. Not the city itself so much, and definitely not the congestion and traffic, but the people. There are some amazing people just NE of Atlanta, and I miss them. I talk about you guys to the kids up here a lot. I also feel privileged and blessed to have been part of the Family Church for so long; I learned more than I realized, and that's been huge at a church that's only 8 months old.

I'm reading John Piper's book "Don't Waste Your Life" and it is amazing. You should probably read it too. I hope that my life is not wasted; i know that God's allowed me to be a part of some neat stuff, but I'm challenged (in the very best of ways) to stay hungry for Him and to always seek what else He would me to do. Please don't waste your life. There's so much good that can be done, so much that NEEDS to be done, so please do it. The Christ-followers out there should be encouraged - you know the One who made the heavens and the earth personally! Now, what are you going to do with that knowledge? Spend it poking around life aimlessly (I'm not talking about a career!) while folks are hurting and lonely and dying to hear some good news? I hope that's not me.

Much love
