Think Wink.

I have two more Sunday’s at my church in Bunceton. Then I am permanently relocating to Kansas City to finish and focus on my education. After prayer and much discussion with some trusted people, I concluded that my education is top priority right now and that God is really wanting me in KC in giving me a job that completely pays for my education.

There is also another reason why I believe that God has called me to KC and away from Bunceton. And it is in this that I am seeking your prayers. My friend Jimmy has asked me to come on board with him at Faith Community Church in the youth group. The kids at this church are really growing at this church. They are begging Jimmy to teach them how to evangelize and share their faith. I feel that there is much I can do to contribute to this church and its youth program. Jimmy has asked me specifically to help out with the high schoolers. Recently, God has been leading me to develop people with a solidified biblical world view. To develop people who can become teachers, doctors, business execs. secretaries, janitors, theme park operators who engage the world and the culture with a Christian world view. That no matter what they do, they are driven by the Gospel. They are Christian doctors or lawyers. These people have the fortitude to step into their college scene or work environment and view it through the lens “of the Gospel of the Glory of Jesus Christ who is the image of God” (2 Corinthians 4:4). This is a chance to do this. (The third reason is that it is getting too expensive to drive the five to six hours every weekend from KC to Ashland and Bunceton)

Today, Jimmy meets with the elder of preaching at Faith Community to propose his ideas for the youth group, including bringing me on to teach the high schoolers. I ask that you pray for God’s will to be done. If that means I am to come on board than I come on board, if not then I do not. But whatever happens, may the decision that they reach be one that most reflects the manifold glories of Yahweh in his son, Jesus the Messiah.
