Being a California boy, born and breed, and now living in Connecticut, presents me with an opportunity to experience life in a much different context. I was able to visit California this past week, an amazing time of growing and sharing with some of the men in my family. The weather was perfect...every day! How does that happen?! Upon touchdown in Connecticut, the weather had been nice all day, so I was told, but light rain turned to a downpour! There were reports on the news about severe damage in places! Even today, it was nice and sunny when I left the house...it's dark and rainy at this moment.

I have often said my family is not here for the weather. We're here for one purpose only, to serve the Lord at Crossroads Community Cathedral. We believe this is where we are called to do ministry. The weather? Yes, it is extreme, the surroundings are beautiful, but the weather is sketchy! It doesn't matter. It's just weather. It is an external condition. We don't need perfect weather to be difference makers.

Until next time,
