I'm back!

I'm back! Debbie and I have transitioned to Palos Heights, Illinois (Chicago) and we are having a blast. We are now the lead pastor for the Stone Church, the oldest church in the Assemblies of God.

Transitions are interesting. It has been said that we are either entering a room, residing in a room or leaving a room. Life is full of transitions and seasons.

Transitions are cleansing. Everyone comes with a clean slate. While we all carry baggage from the past, our relationships with one another are full of deposits with no withdrawals.

Transitions are full of changing. At no time are we more open to change than during transitions.

Here's a great question that we can discuss today: Do you look toward change while at the beginning of a transition while the atmosphere is full of change - or do you go slow and build up trust levels and then make changes after a season of relational growth.

Interesting question......
