A Few Reflections from last year

Here are some things that I fondly look back on as 2010 matures.

• Cynthia and I ran two 5k's.
• The Crossing school (an outreach to public school casualties) moved into SGC.
• My son Austin announced his engagement to Meagan Allen, his longtime sweetheart.
• SGC was finally & officially out of debt!
• Notre Dame hired Brian Kelly as its new head coach.
• I was selected to be part of a coaching community with Scott Hodge of The Orchard and 12 other pastor guys. It began yesterday. It was amazing.
• We put our house up for sale to downsize since we will soon be a family of three co-habitants
• Bought our plane tickets for Honduras to go on a two-week mission in July with Max and Garret, my two youngest sons.
• Celebrated my 20th year on staff at SGC (the last 5.5 in the senior role)

I think this will be a good year, too.
