Let me first of all say this, the team that God has put me on is the best I've ever imagined in youth ministry. Jody Vaughn nonstop laughter and creativity video expert, Missy Vaughn - Drama creator, holy crud awesome, Jason Batt the most overall technically knowledgable guy I know, Tim Simmons organized, focused and precise able to leap tall buildings with a single bound, Conor Manning, well our young lion with passion, zeal, great on the campus and simply the man. Jessie Armstrong - my right hand lady in the office who is stinking incredible at watching for potholes and making sure I'm where I need to be when I need to be there, way organized, totally gifted in administration. Casara more driven, organized and passionate about what she does than most 10 people I know. Amy's great with people and a huge asset as the newest part of our team. Like I said simply the best.
This morning in our staff meeting I asked the team what needs to happen for us to get better, we prayed and came up with one simple conclusion, time with students, Jesus walked with 12 men and gave them everything he had. He lived with them, traveled with them, prayed with them, and learned to give everything with these precious 12 men. Sometimes we concluded we get busy with the wrong things. Things that are just not as important as spending time with our kids, these precious students that God gives us daily to speak to and love.
What are the important things in your life? What are the things that nothing should get in the way of when it comes to your call in life? I think God is constantly adjusting and making our priorities correct, it's up to us to hear him and make the necessary changes.
Time is short,
Live Large and profitable.
