WOW!

WOW! It's been a long while since I have posted on here, because I have been so busy this summer. This summer has been so refreshing and hetic at the same time. It seemed like I have had much time to breathe cause I have been coming and going so much. I know I have fallen mored deeply into love this summer. Through all the fun times, disagrements, and attitudes we have had this summer, I've realized fault in myself and I know that I love Alison with everything I have. I'm sure there are times where I don't show her that as much as I should, but I hope God conctinues to work on me with that.

The Interim position has been a huge learning experience for me. Going on three major trips (Mexico, Summer Camp, and Super Summer) has taught me so much about ministry. Dealing with such a vast age range (Jr. High to College) has led me to a new vision with First Southern. I know God has some awesome things in store. I'm also getting ready to enter my last year of school. I'm a little nervous about it, but God will take care of me. I have never take 18 hours in a semester before and I hope I do well. In order to graduate this year i need 18 hours both semesters and then maybe some next summer, but I am committed on getting my schooling out of the way.

Once I get my college out of the way then I could move on in life. I can try and find a good poisition somehwere that will allow me to start my seminary process. Then start realizing it's time to start considering marraige. There is so much to look forward to that I can hardly wait, I just want to get this next year of school over with. I love you all and I hope all of you makes a difference for the sake of Christ, even if that means that you might be hurt by others.

In Christ, Joe
