missio

So that time is near: the time for year-end lists. This is the first of many of mine. I’ll begin by reviewing my life this past year, through by highlighting some of my posts from throughout the year. Here’s the first quarter (Jan-Mar).

January

I attended an Acts 29 regional on the 10th. (Notes I, Notes II). Good stuff there. Also, I posted the first 20 of my life goals (more coming soon) and I wrote a post on my design philosophy, which I still adhere to. Lastly, I wrapped up with a post on the Top 20 Christian Blogs You Should Be Reading. As a note, at this point in the year, I could’ve swore we were preparing far in advance to move to DC and plant a church. Little did I know what was coming…

February

I wrapped up Biblical principles for church growth in this post on How to Be a Successful Church and then a couple of days later realized how much I love my future wife, Miranda. I also found out that I was invited to blog the National New Church Conference. Would love to do it again, hint, hint.

March

I got a job at Moe’s Southwest Grill in March. It lasted about two months, then I was cut loose for reasons still unknown to me, or any other co-worker at the restaurant. I also picked my Final Four (here) .  I also had a pretty diesel post on Worship in Church Planting. I took a visit up to Vintage21 on the 25th, and loved it. Here are my thoughts. At the end of the month, I posted some resources for monitoring culture, 10 more blogs you should be reading, and I broke the news that God had called me here to Greenville, at least for the time being.

What a winter 2007!
