I don't have a local church to become a part of back in the States as it stands right now, so i would really like to find a Missional church that's reformed theologically, that'd be awesome!
There still feels like there will be a fairly substantial gap left with my absence here. Not that I'm everything or even a hugely important part of this church, but i would really like to be completely replaced by the time i leave in every possible way, so please pray that God would replace me and then some for this church body's growth at my departure rather than it's harm.
I'm praying about "next steps" right now, again :) it seems like I do that all the time, but maybe that's the time of life God's got me in, never really knowing what He's got for me to do next. Anyways, Seminary, getting plugged into a church that would send me out in a few years (or even right away) fully supported, or something else entirely? God knows, and if it's cool with Him, I'd like to know as well. :)
Loads of people here God seems to be reaching out to, pray that the Holy Spirit would continue to wreck, change, draw out, and regenerate lost and dying people that by His Sovereign Grace they would come to know Jesus Christ and receive eternal life.
Finally, please pray that God would keep me separate from sin though still engaged with this lost and dying world. That I would have a desire to do His will far more than I would long for the temporary and fleeting pleasures of sin, Satan, and death. Specifically that i would have the heart to preach His gospel, learn more about Him every day, pray for Him to do what I cannot (i.e. most everything), and to know my place.
Grace, Love, and Peace
