Comment on my confession. by Amber

How very, very odd that I happened upon this post tonight. I have never been to your church, but a friend of mine on FB attends and someone from TCC tagged him in a photo. I followed the photo to TCC FB page, then to the website, and ultimately found my way here. I read about how you’re believing God for a miracle in your finances. I think to myself, “Wow, my husband and I are doing exactly the same thing”. And then I read that this all stemmed from the book “Sun Stand Still” and I am floored- my husband and I are believing God for a miracle in our own finances after hearing Steven Furtick preach that very message! I recently attempted to purchase the book, however there was shipping issues and I never received it. But, really… I’m tempted to say, “What a small world!” However I have a feeling that there’s more to it than that.

Darren… we barely know each other (BMA church-planter in Chicagoland, my daughter attended Merge last year).

Anyway…

I just wanted to thank you for your honesty on an issue that is crippling so many of our peers. I imagine this issue is as, if not more, widespread and any of the more “notable” detours from God’s best in other areas of our life. In fact, our entire nation is writhing in the throws of bondage such as yours. I hope and pray that it looks to and finds the same miraculous grace that you have embraced.

I don’t portend that the coming days, weeks, months…even years, will be cake walk. I think you know that. However, beginning tonight I pray that you have already begun to sleep much better. Like so many others caught in so many other forms of bondage who have been set free, I pray that you and your family will be able to lead others out of this bondage as you begin to not only sleep…but breathe and yes, give easier.

Though this is not my issue…I do have others (don’t we all?) and your honesty is not only refreshing…its inspiring. Thanks for the courage you have shown in being so raw with your struggles.

Praying that the sun stands still for you as you confess, repent and recalibrate your life to God’s better way for living in this…and every other part of the abundant life He longs to grant us.

Because There is a Better Way

PS— heard Furtik @ Catalyst in Atlanta 2 years ago…he has walked his talk in regards to his book. One of the best talks ever given at Catalyst…if you can ever hear it I think you would love it. He speaks from the heart of a church planter…and to his launch team…very special moment indeed.

Dear Daren:

Great message today. Thanks for the numerous shout outs and the new Bible! Amber and I, just watched the Book of Eli and loved it. Redbox ROCKS! Can you please remind us of the website you mentioned at church today regarding our reading assignments for the next 30 days? My memory has failed me…again. Look forward to hearing from you. Keep up the great work. We’ll see you next week.

Sincerely,
John and Amber

I had the same revelation this morning when I got the call about my brother. Humble is the word of the day.

I don’t have a car sitting around lol, but one of my customers owes me a favor. He owns a wrapping shop. We have had a golf car or two wrapped. They do good custom work. So let me know and I should be able to get some good pricing at least..

After not one divorce, but two (yuck) I can say that not making your spouse a priority is toxic. If Satan can’t make us bad, he makes us busy. Busy is part of the equation for failure. I encounter hundreds of people every month at my salon. The happiest wives seem to be the ones who are made to feel special. Date nights should be a regular part of a marriage. We schedule time for church, sports, activities and hobbies…time with your spouse should at the top. As much as I appreciate my clients, they are my paycheck…not my priority. One day, I pray, God will give me a husband to love the way He has planned. Kudos to you and Ashley for finding time to sneak away. I personally, appreciate all the sacrifices and time and prayer you two have put in to making God’s call, a reality. But God called you two together, before He called you to the city church. Just Dont forget. Good Luck finding more date opportunities in the near future!
