As we approach the end of 2024, I’m excited to share some of the highlights from the second half of this eventful year. Despite intentionally stepping back from writing during the latter half of the year, there have been several joyous occasions and significant changes in our family’s life that I’d like to celebrate with you.
A few days ago I shared across my social media accounts that I have concluded my role as Executive Pastor at Flat Creek Baptist Church. It was not an easy decision, but one we believe aligns with Godโs will for our lives and the church.
In a world that seems to be evolving at an ever-accelerating pace, Southern Baptist churches face their own unique set of challenges as we look ahead to the next two decades. As believers, it is essential to approach these challenges with a positive and thoughtful mindset, fueled by a steadfast commitment to the gospel and an unwavering trust in the providence of God.
Since announcing we were entering a time of transition, our family has received hundreds and hundreds of phone calls (yepโฆ still a thing!), emails, text messages, and encouraging words across a variety of social media platforms, all wishing us well.
It is with some sadness that we announced my resignation as Administration Pastor of this wonderful church this evening. As Northside is the first church where I have served on staff, the transition to a new place of service will be another first for us.
