Where It Stops, Nobody Knows

Welcome. I’m back. We’re back.

I haven’t blogged since the day prior to our wedding, but not because life hasn’t offered a slew of blog-worthy topics. I just haven’t written much about anything, privately or publicly.

Perhaps part of that silence stemmed from a disorientation of the heart that came with an onslaught of drastic life changes. In the span of 6 weeks, I moved to America, got married, honeymooned, moved to Missouri, started a new job, and began attending a new church.

Reading that list sounds more traumatic than living the list actually was. But even when change is positive, it takes some time before the vision clears enough to figure out where the merry-go-round let you off.

Geographically, it let us off in a tiny, uneventful town in middle America.
Demographically, Jerry and I are adjusting to married life and are expecting a baby in May.
Spiritually, the vision is still a little blurry, but God is as faithful as ever.
Ecclesiastically, we’re in a relatively young and growing church where we are learning much and seeking to live life with great intentionality.
Relationally, we miss our friends and colleagues overseas greatly, but have been greatly blessed to quickly meet some fantastic people here whom we also love.

Last year at this time, neither Jerry or I thought we’d be living in America right now. And, we don’t expect to be in America indefinitely. But, here we are. And as long as we are here, I aspire to walk with purpose and obedience.

So, welcome to a new chapter of the blog to follow a new chapter of life. I’m glad to have you along for the journey.
