Big Orange Country

Well, it's official. We are moving to Knoxville - home of the Vols (I better learn to like orange). I have been called by Sevier Heights Baptist Church as their Associate Pastor of Worship (that's a fancy name for Minister of Music). Check out their website at www.sevierheights.org.
This has been a long, complicated journey, but God has shown Himself faithful to us once again. I am so blessed to have this opportunity and to have been able to serve at Bellevue for the past three years. So now I've found myself in the difficult position of trying to adequately express how thankful I am to the people that we've been serving here at Bellevue. My family has been loved on and encouraged by this church more than anyone could ever know. I'm a better Christian, a better husband, a better father, a better minister, a better musician, a better friend, a better leader, a better follower, and a better man because of what I've learned from the people here at Bellevue. Thanks to all of you from the bottom of my heart. I will thank my God upon every remembrance of you. I love you all.
We'll be moving in the next few weeks. My first Sunday at Sevier Heights is August 19. There's a lot to do between now and then. Please keep us in your prayers. We really need to sell our house and would really like to be able to find one there soon as well - those are 2 huge prayer requests.
Once we get settled in there I promise I'll do better with my blog!
