You haven’t heard from me the past couple of days because we have been busily engaged in a retreat of our pastoral team. We are having a wonderful time together!

Before the retreat we read the book Integrity by Dr. Henry Cloud. This is a great book and I highly recommend it. We were able to watch a couple of videos  by Cloud and his colleague John Townsend and found them very edifying. The premise is that integrity goes far beyond mere morals and hinges on six principles of character. We have built our time together around this theme.

Each of us has had time to share things we struggle with and what we are asking God to do over this next year. We have had ample time to pray together and this time together has been very sweet. I can’t tell you how fabulous it is to work with a group of men like this with whom we truly respect each other and just have fun being together. It’s also very nice to be able to open our hearts to each other in confidence.

We all did miss our Tuesday night prayer ministry, but we have been praying here as part of our 24/7 prayer cycle leading up to The Summit. We are expecting God to do some powerful work at The Summit.
