We all have a story

Finished off a good weekend.

Weird week due to the fact that my two days off are right next to one another (Sunday and Monday) I'm not entirely sure what all I'm going to do tomorrow- not that there isn't a few things that need to happen during the day. Hopefully I'll make progress on something...

I'm quite excited for this summer and after talking things over with Zac and Amy at church today- I know that Tina is also excited. Once we began talking about the potential of ministry impact this summer... things became pretty energized. So hopefully we're able to get the ball rolling on some new opportunities soon. I'm definitely ready to get my feet wet both in ministry and at a teaching level (and of course nervous) on top of it all.

Things have really been going great, especially since the ultrasound this past Thursday. Seems as if time is flying by (which is a good thing for this pregnancy!) I would just like to ask those that read this to please continue praying for everything to go well- and we appreciate both what's been already prayed for and what will be prayed for in advance. Thank you!

Of course for the past (oh I don't couple years...lol) I have been hinting at putting a book together. For the most part this is still a vital goal of mine and it really has just been a matter of becoming disciplined about sitting down to write and also having a solid premise for the book. I've realized a couple things that have helped motivate me to action in the near future concerning the writing for this book:

1. I'm not looking to write for the scholar- I want to write in a simple way... I want to connect with anyone and everyone. My goal is to take difficult concepts and bring them to people in a way that they can best understand them.
2. What has been the center of my struggle for sometime has been how seemingly easy its been to sit down and write blogs and yet when it comes down to writing out a structured book- I've had difficulty. So I've settled on the idea of writing stories instead of "essays" - linking my own narrative into "the story" that is the Gospel.

I have had to change my perspective about going about writing- but I'm pretty sure that I'm now in a "good place" to finally put the energy into it.

That's it for now... I need sleeeeeep.

Go in Peace.
Lance
