Exciting!

sent in my staff apps today!

in the words of kijers: "woot."

today i gave up to God where i want to go and prayed that he would send me wherever i could know him the most and where i could have the greatest impact in bringing people into the kingdom and sending students to the world.

but i also hope that where i go will be fun.
lots and lots of fun.

yeehaw! let the good times roll.

spiritual warfare

since i've been involved in ministry with c4c (that is, since first year ... meaning only 4 years of experience really), i don't think i've felt as much of a tangible sense of spiritual warfare as i do now.

all around me, it seems like the enemy is picking our leaders off, one by one. whether it be a sin issue, or relational conflict (which, for some reason seems unusually high this year), or "busyness", i realize once again that we are not fighting against human flesh, but against the powers and principalities of this dark world.

oh God, have mercy on us and save us from this impending sense of darkness!

i don't know how to articulate clearly what is going on here @ cton, but more than ever, i feel a sense that things are getting out of control ... but not in a way that feels like "God is in control". personally, i feel like things are heading towards meltdown, but knowing that only God can save us at a time like this.

adam reminded me the other day that there is satanic opposition to what we are doing on campus. i look at human explanations and human methods so often, but we must remember that this is a spiritual battle we are facing.

and only spiritual methods will win spiritual wars.

God, mobilize your people from across this nation to pray and fast and seek your face Lord. let us be radical -- not only in our "faith goals" -- but in each and every moment that you gift us with. God help us. God save us!

i've cheated on blogspot...

facebook is the new blogspot.


easier. faster. more convenient. more pictures. easier formatting (ie: none). this is good but it is also evil to an extent.

sorry to my blogspot readers for this infidelity.
