We're on the move!

As the title suggests, we are moving yet again! As quickly as we breezed into Chattanooga, we are breezing right back out. It’s a long story that I will probably tell more of in the days to come. For now, suffice to say that we are moving to Augusta to start a church. It will probably look different than what most of you think of when you think of church. That’s a whole other post for another day. We are over the moon excited about all that God is doing and what he is going to do in Augusta. It seems ridiculous to most people to quit your job in times like these. Why do that and start something that pays nothing all while you have a family and a house you’re trying to sell? So many people have asked us why we’re doing this. Again, that’s another post. For now I’ll just say that though it seems risky and doesn’t make much sense to many, God’s ways are not our ways. His thoughts are not our thoughts. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are his ways higher than our ways, and his thoughts than our thoughts. We don’t need to attempt to shield ourselves from every conceivable risk in life. Yes, God protects us and covers us, but that doesn’t always mean that where he leads us is safe in the eyes of the world. In the words of C.S. Lewis, “Safe? Whoever said anything about safe? Of course he isn’t safe, but he’s GOOD.” In a season of life full of transition and change with many questions, we know our God and we know He is good. And for that we will follow him where he leads us.

We invite you to follow along this adventure of life with us! My goal is to get into a habit of posting so that we can all keep in touch. But let’s be honest, perhaps you just care about following our blog to see baby pictures. That’s ok too. Those are sure to come.
