A week and a half later

So things continue to move ahead. Jeremy and I are headed to Nashville to go through the Covenant's church planting assessment process in two short weeks... seems like this came up out of nowhere! He's upstairs trying to capture on paper how God has transformed his life in the last 10 years and communicate his beliefs on the church and pastoral work in preparation for the assessment. I probably won't see him again until later this evening...

After my last post, Jer met with one of the Covenant's church planting leads, just to get his take on Storm, the possibilities, best practices, etc. And somehow that turned into an invitation to go through this assessment process. This is the same thing our dear friends Michelle and Rob Jacobsen went through three years ago - and now they are on the brink of launching Restoration Covenant in the Apple Valley area this fall. Not that we'll get a 'Yes - plant a church' out of this process, but at the very least, we will have more clarity into what God is calling us to. If it's not planting a church, at least we'll know that much.

I am looking forward to getting away and actually talking through all of this with Jeremy. With church, school, work and sleeping, we don't spend too much time talking in-depth about our future.
