Thanks to all who could make it. Here is a recap of our time...
1. What a great story about Captain Bll Eckerd and his WWII experience as well as his journey to a reunion of the 100th infantry division taking him by the Barn and Haines and Kevin and Bill's son Robin. A heart changed... yours and Capt. Bills. That is a great story. Thanks for reminding us all of the power of God and this message to come after us.
2. Remembering what happened to you. Weve all heard John and the RH team talk about the thief coming to steal, though that can happen and does, often we just file the good stuff away and don't return to it. I was struck by this a couple of weeks ago and wanted to start our time with that inviting question: So, What happened to you? God has brought us all so far from where we were that a couple of minutes on the phone obviously wont do it justice but some time with Him or another man reflecting on it will do your heart good, I'm sure of it!
3. Men on a Mission
Jeff Andrecyn and his team from Charlottesville are speakers at a men's retreat in Columbia... Carrying this message in four sessions this weekend as well as inviting these men to more at TOP GUN in March 09.

4. Some Encouraging Words we ended on...
Rent Mr. Holland's Opus
The Gospel is not about Relief but Restoration
We are not settlers but pilgrims who travel lightly and with great purpose.
We (the allies of the Eastern Front) are changed men and therefore Compelled to do what we do... offer Life and Freedom to others while seeking it and living it ourselves.
There are no short cuts, just ordained delays.
