A. Accept the job and get going.
B. Interview, but see what else is available.
C. Take the job and two years later jump out of what you love because God said so.
If you chose "C" you'd be absolutely right. What in the world?! I couldn't believe it in a million years. I honestly never imagined, dreamed, or desired to be a lead pastor. But, God has a funny way of moving us even when we aren't ready, looking, or possibly ever going to be capable. That's the beauty of God's leading.
He takes us to new heights. He throws us into NASCAR-like traffic right after getting our license. He could care less if we are ready or not. Because He is with us. God did an amazing thing in my life and I couldn't ever imagine being in this place. But here I am...
A 29 year old, Husband, Father, Pastor, Mets Fan, and all around Lover of Life. I've seen quite a few things, disappointed God in a number of ways, but nothing really prepared me for moving in with my mother-in-law and taking on the responsibility of taking care of my family and my wife's as well.
And honestly, I don't think we are at all built to handle the loss of life. It's something I've blogged about here, and my wife will talk about from her ol' Vans in the next entry in this series...
