BIG NEWS!

STOP THE PRESSES! BIG NEWS!

Bekah and I are having another baby! We love being parents and look forward to the new little life that will soon be joining us in the world. Please keep us in your prayers, especially Bekah. She's been really tired lately and has been experiencing a lot of sickness. (I told her that if Eve would have just keep her sticky fingers off that apple she wouldn't have to go through all this : ) ) Just kidding, ladies!

Anyway, I've just been thinking about PCC and our church family a lot lately. I was reminded that it was two weeks after we had our first service that Kate was born. Then, after going through the great disappointment of a miscarriage and further surgeries for Bekah and continuing health problems (three years later) David III was born. Now this big news of God's blessing through a third child. No one can argue that we're not doing our part to grow the church!

It's been really special to grow with you and the PCC family. I kind of feel like Paul when he said to his church plant that "not only did we share the Gospel with you, but our lives as well." Friends, that's what church is all about. It's about doing life together. It's about going through the good times and the bad times. It's about celebrating our victories and comforting one another in times of despair. Perhaps you won't remember the sermons I preached, but you will never forget the memories we have forged in the crucible of life.
