  • Church Planting: An exciting and perilous journey

    November 4, 2008

    A thought hit me last week about church planting.
    It startled me at first, but then I felt a sense of gratitude wash over me.

    Church planting is the most difficult thing I've ever done.
    It's the scariest thing I've ever done.
    And yet, I have never had so much fun in my life.

    Yeah, that's right: ministry can actually be fun!
    Megan and I are loving the place we're in right now.
    What an exciting and perilous journey church planting is.

    I still don't know what I'm doing (please don't tell anyone I said that…) but I'm beginning to sense that where I'm at right now is a good place to be.

    Great post, and spoken like a missionary. I’m feeling the same way, but looking for the balance between insanity and kingdom abandon. Any thoughts on that?
    Thanks again.
