Net Work ing

I love people. I love hearing of their hopes and dreams. I love sitting with them as they share their hurts. I love people and just being there for them and with them. There is a special group of people that I love talking with and they are church planters. See, there is a big movement along a lot of younger men to plant churches and reach those people who are not being reached. Going into bars to meet and love people. Finding ways to reach people in what may seem like a radical way.

Shane Craven is a new friend of mine. I am currently a youth pastor, but would love to one day plant a church. When I met Shane, I felt like we had an immediate connection (i mean that in a totally heterosexual way). He has the same passions, he's Biblical and he wants to reach people for who they are; sinners. Because by His grace, God plucked us out of our depraved nature and made us right with Him. Shane wants to be use to do the same in other peoples lives.

I love the power of networking and love how God uses that to change the world. Let's change the world Shane!
