Ned

This weekend, I helped lead a youth retreat up in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. A friend named Ned and I began talking about ministry, callings and passions. Ned, literally had me near tears as I realized that my passion for reaching younger generations for Christ has really been squelched lately. Ned pointed out to me that there are numerous similarities between our passions and our anger. My prayer for those of us who find ourselves involved in this conversation, is that we remember that even though we are hurt and somewhat angry with church at times, God has ignited us with passion and give us a calling to make a difference in the world and the church. Let's not give up!
