Our fall small group season is about to kick off. I’m excited to dig deeper with the men and women in our small groups this year. In October, I – and three others – will be returning to Manitoba to the Church Renewal Conference. It’s going to be an exciting time of learning and growing — and hopefully the fire that my wife and I caught will also be caught by the group going. If it does — we will begin a slow healthy burn that reignite our faith. Exciting things are coming – and I want them here now — but impatience is the enemy right now. Flowers bud in their time given the right conditions — and that’s what we are doing — creating the right conditions for faith to bud in a new faith in our faith community.
