This school year was a whirlwind of very inconvenient incidences that made me stray from the productivity I find so much comfort in and made my naturally busy-bodied soul feel frustrated, angry, and disappointed. So to all of my fellow busy-bodies out there: Be still. It might be the most productive thing you do all day.
A short while ago, when the world was very different, I signed up to do the devotional for today, March 22, 2020. Somehow, I felt called to do the devotional today, even though we’re not meeting. It’s probably just guilt, but it feels more like a response to missing normalcy, but, really, I’m just missing y’all and wanting to reach out in whatever way possible.

Each week as we leave the sanctuary we ask this question. When then say “We will go out to be God’s people in the world.” What does that look like? What does that really mean?

This fall, during our stewardship campaign, we asked you to imagine what we could do. As I think about this task, I like to reflect on what we have done.

My wife Allison and I host a Healthy Plate Discipleship breakfast several times a year, so we spend a lot of time talking about the areas of discipleship — Worship, Play, Pray, Learn, Serve, and Give.

The bittersweet side of a call to ministry is having to step away from the place that you call home, because there’s only so much growth you can do in a place that’s known you since you were eight years old.

As we are reaching out to train people in businesses, organizations, and institutions as part of the Age-Friendly Dementia-Friendly certification program, and as we work on fundraising and organizational needs, it is easy to lose sight of our mission.

With our “Go & Be” theme in mind, I figured I would take the time to reflect on who God is calling me to be, what God is calling me to do, and where God is calling me to go.
