It's Official!

Wow! It is finally official. Abundant Life Community Church is sponsoring a new church plant in Strongsville, Ohio - Lifepoint Church. It is exciting to have Abundant Life as the launching point!
We are so excited to be a part of this adventure!
Now that we have a sponsor, and a name, it is even more exciting to pray for the process. it is so much easier to pray for something by name, so put Lifepoint Church on your prayer list!
Website coming soon!

COMMITTED!

There's an old joke about theham and egg breakfast. It says that the chicken is involved in the breakfast, but the pig was COMMITTED!
Back in August when I was invited into this church planting adventure I thought I would get involved. I thought I would be helping out for a little while, then move on. Well, within a few months, it was clear that God had other plans. he called me to this FULL TIME. God intended for me to move from involvement to COMMITMENT.
So here we are seeking partners and going for it. Full time. Committed. And as weird as it is, like the pig and the breakfast, we do lay our lives down for it. We walk by faith.

24 I assure you: Unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains by itself. But if it dies, it produces a large crop. 25 The one who loves his life will lose it, and the one who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. John 12:24-25
