Bonnie, Kevin, and I are the "storytellers" for the week, which means we will be telling the story of God - beginning to end and leading live dialogs with groups of about 20 and then splitting into smaller groups. Pray that we will be intentional in preparation - reading through the story, practicing reading it aloud, wisdom when leading the live discussions, etc.
Our final youth group visit is this weekend. We are going to Tabor. I will be teaching Friday in the youth group. Please pray that I would prepare and teach the lesson God wants me to teach and not what I merely want or am comfortable doing - God-prepped and not man-prepped.
Continual unity and growth as a team...we are all still very different and learning a lot about each other.
What is great is that we just got back from a two night retreat to this great cottage/house out in the woods with its own pond. It was incredibly relaxing and fruitful - got a lot done. I was able to read over half of Ender's Game. It was great. Couple movies, good food, ice cream with egg liquor poured over it (It's quite good.).

Jon, I keep getting this feeling that you belong where you are.
I know those are pretty weighty words for me to throw around so easily, but I'm doing it anyway. At least for this summer, I know God has you exactly where He wants you.
awesome! a hammock! so, the "God story." isnt that all of history? do you feel overwhelmed? [im kidding. i know its a bad joke, cuz you probably do feel a tad overwhelmed.]
thank you for doing what youre doing.
