Good to hear from you Jason. Praying God will continue to lead you in His path and you will "hear" Him.

Evansville, IN. Just about 2 hours away from me. Yeah, I can see meeting up in Vincennes or even making my way there. :) In the meantime, prayers will be said.

Dude! Didn't know you were free of the house! not sure if that is a God-thing or just a good thing, but I am taking it from your thoughts here it is good. Is this the first post in quite awhile or am I not getting them in feedly? Anyway, love your thoughts here and will be keeping you in my prayers. I love when God makes things plain (not going). he will lead you in the next one as well.

I saw his original post on Facebook, but missed the reaction. This doesn't reflect well on A Deeper Story.

I Googled Deeper Story. Yep, liberal. Nope don't plan on going back either. Got better things to do with my time than read garbage.

Seems to me - and I could be wrong - but it does seem as though your background in broadcast and your knowledge of web/social media could put you into a specialized field once you have your J.D., one that could help fund the fight against trafficking...but hey, like I said, I could be wrong. :)

Re: My Wimpy God

Melissa — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 21:07:36 -0000

Since our God is NOT wimpy -- you should go ahead and go to law school ... you know that he would totally make a way for you & see you through it. Jeremiah 29:11 comes to mind for you.

love that you have a pastor willing to take risks :)

Re: What If God Already Gave You The Desire of Your Heart?

JennyRain — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 19:20:05 -0000

The death of dreams is painful... and especially when the dreams have to die multiple deaths... and some of those deaths of desires are not resurrected. I'm living in an unresurrected desire right now and it totally sucks so I feel your struggle in this Jason

Re: Sometimes I Feel Like A Liar

JennyRain — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 19:17:31 -0000

What if the real lie that is currently being perpetrated across the church is that God redeems "things"? Because I don't see that in scripture as a regular pattern -- only as an outlier (think Job). I see that God redeems His people, but not necessarily things.

Abraham never got to go back home, Moses never saw "things" again, and on and on the stories go -- yet in every single case, God worked redemptively in the lives of the people.

I remember praying that God would redeem my first marriage. He didn't. But He redeemed me. And I have to believe He is actively redeeming my ex.

God is in the business of redeeming, restoring, and edifying "people" but American Christianity has taught us that the only way to do that is through giving us more material things, happiness, wealth, etc.

Love this post :)

"I’m still not quite ready"

God made a comment to me a few weeks back about an opportunity that has been placed in front of me "You are not ready yet" -- and I've been really wrestling with that since wondering did He say it, was it just me, what do I do with that? you know the mental drill...

I guess we don't know what we needed to learn until we get on the other side

Re: The Ghost Writer

I'm SOOOO getting that book for John ....

"I never realized that in many ways I never really dealt emotionally with the losses that I’ve suffered in life. I’ve processed, reasoned, questioned and avoided but I never really made peace with my losses."

I wonder when he will realize some of this too...

You know - it's interesting, because I know you have struggled a lot over the last several years - but in the last year, there has been a whole different tone to your writing and your journey. Not sure if it is surrender, or trust, or something... but it is a fortitude and foundation of peace that seems to be there even despite the struggle. It's cool to see the growth :)

Re: God is the God of Take

JennyRain — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 19:07:15 -0000

God has been really teaching me a lot about "choosing" joy in this season I'm in too... and about His sufficiency... but shoot, sometimes knowing it in our heads and in our hearts are such different realities

Re: I Preached My First Sermon Last Night

JennyRain — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 19:05:17 -0000

So cool! I love that God took a minute to remind you that it is not about how big we are, but how big He is... I love also the encouragement in this dream that God is with you - even through the difficult stuff... so cool :)

Thanks Kat. :) He's retired now so I think he might excuse the Bingo comparison. :)
