why bother...


Gideon happens to be my favorite character in the Bible. Partly because he's the one man against all odds, and partly because God uses him in incredible ways.

Over the last few years, with different changes going on in the kingdom, it seems that I've lost some of my fervor for my relationship with God. I was baptized into Christ in December of '86 in the Boston Church of Christ. I was in and out of college ministries and teen ministries through about '94, and then ended up in the married ministry in LA. After LA, we moved back to Colorado and were part of the Denver Church of Christ, and for the last 4 years we've been up here in Seattle.

As things stand now, I feel like I need to step up my relationship with God again, and maybe this is just another route to explore his word and my relationship with him.
