I love my pastor. I need him in my life, so, before I start, huge shout outs to Matt Tapley! Follow him on the tweets (@MattTapley). Anyway, I was bouncing some thoughts off of him as we were driving to Toronto a few days back… I was sharing concerns about Vintage and pastoring (nothing huge – just asking for direction).
That to say, I’m so stoked on the new season that is coming for VNTG. You see, its year 5 for me. That means I’ve pastored a whole generation of students through their HighSchool years and now… now I get to do it all over again… scary thought almost… But intimidating thoughts aside – I was reminded by Matt that now is the time to dream bigger! To see things as God sees them…
I believe that God calls us to leave legacy. Not one that glorifies the name of Drew Riach or VNTG or even Lakemount… I believe that God has called us to create a legacy in His name that will last throughout generations! And to know that I get to be a part of that process is WAY awesome!
He sees me, you, your friends that have yet to know His AMAZING GRACE… He sees more. His ways are higher and greater than the place you are in now – even if that place feels so good!
So its time to dream again!
Time to catch the heart of God for the new season that is upon us!
Remember – we are called to be His hands and HIS feet! Heaven on earth kinda stuff!
Get stoked for whats ahead!
