A New Adventure

I am off to Massanetta Springs, VA in the morning. I will be the keynote speaker for 2 identical middle school conferences. One of my seminary friends and classmates, Kelly Kaufman suggested my name. I have moved from panic to terror. Two sermons and 4 keynotes plus 3 devotionals and questions after keynotes has moved me to a state of terror.

This is another experience that although it is my "first rodeo" I feel like it can't appear that way. I had these same feelings when I presided at my first funeral. On one level I am pretty sure everything will be just fine. I will deal with things as they come and everything will get done. On another level I am glad for the panic and terror because this is the Word of God.

Here's to trusting God and going forward!
