On the Road Again

I was fortunate to spend some time in Springfield, Ohio this past weekend. I was hosted by the Lagonda and Story-Hypes United Methodist Churches. My thanks to pastors Dan Held and Bruce Gischel for their kind hospitality. We had a great time and one fantastic carry-in dinner. I have to admit, it felt good to get back on the road and spend some time sharing my stories with folks.

It amazes me how much other junk we have to go through to afford ourselves the time and resources to work in ministry. It's worth it though, when you see people start to get it. When they realize that sharing the love of Christ is as simple as telling their stories and how powerful those stories can really be, I am filled with a sense of hope. I will be out and about in the weeks ahead and I look forward to seeing some of you and collecting some new stories to tell.

Several of you have asked about getting together in person. I am working on a plan to host a series of Storyteller Gatherings in the future. These would be informal times of hanging out and sharing some good food and stories with one another. Stay tuned for dates and times.

Be God's
Greg
