Nearly a year and a half ago I wrote this blog post called Life Stuff. At that time I said I’d write an update once some things that were up in the air fell into place. Almost 18 months later, I can finally write this update.
In March 2015, I was looking for a new career and a new home, and also suffering from two herniated discs that pretty much took me out of commission for a few weeks. The back problems were fixed by prayer, physical therapy, and medicine. In May of last year we moved to another house in Ocean Pines, only about a mile away from where we’d spent the first 11 years of our marriage. And after a failed venture in life insurance, a part-time stint as a small groups pastor, and being hired for a chaplain position that never materialized… I’m glad to finally be able to share that God has opened a new door for me as a high school English teacher at Salisbury Christian School. This is not where I would ever have guessed my road would lead me, but at the same time it makes so much sense and I see great ministry potential in this position.
Life is so different now from what it was in March of 2015. But different is not bad. It’s just different. Anyway, I’ve been waiting a year and a half to write this post, so here it is. Thanks to all of you who have been cheering me on along the way!
