Our staff is in the midst of a lot of long days serving and hosting over 2300 people at Drive ‘08. Aside from my allergies kicking in full force over last weekend and making me sound like Barry White Jr., I love what happens when so many people eager to make church more about God and less about playing religion converge in one place. It gives me a lot of hope for how the Church could be affected over the next few decades.
The days are really long for us on the staff side, but when it’s all over, I actually miss it. Not just the encouragement I get from the attendees and their passion, but it’s a real joy serving with our staff during this time. It always reminds me of the health around this place. I really look forward to spending long hours with others on our staff. There’s actually joy in it. Hmm, think of that. Church staff + long hours = joy. I’m so thankful for that.
Hi, I'm Scott and this is my bio attempt. God has a sense of humor... I work at a church. That's not the path I figured coming out of grad school, but when He called, thankfully I didn't try to win a battle of merits between my plan and His. So, how'd that play out? Well, in 2001 I left commercial real estate and went on staff at North Point Community Church in Alpharetta, GA. This place captured my heart the first time I walked in the doors. God, thanks for letting me do this for as long as you let me do it!
scott,
i’m here at drive and appreciating the staff and all that you guys are doing … it’s been great!
thanks!
