Not Much on Photo Shoots

As I write, I am on a bus with 35 of some of my favorite people on the planet. The crew is headed for a 10 day build in Mexico to add 5,000 square feet to an incredible camp in Saltillo. The camp will reach 10,000 kids with education and Good News over the next 5 years.

The bus is outfitted with WiFi so email and Skype are up and running. The phone just rang and one of many called to talk about the Atlanta Business Chronicle profile. I had forgotten about it. The interview was incredible and the writer a really neat guy. The photo shoot was another thing.

Who knows what the pictures look like? I don't. I just know that the very astute photographer could tell that I didn't have much "photo shoot" experience. My life's work was once described as "the guy you can always count on who is changing the world but who no one knows." I think he was correct. Another friend says that Northwest Church is the best kept secret, which, of course, doesn't really reflect our mission.

God is funny. God is awesome. He has definitively and with great wisdom protected me so that I can work His work without distraction. The very things that I longed for in my youth would have so distracted the work that he called me to do.

We'll have to see what that photo looks like!
