On Saturday August 29, over 200 people boarded the Spirit of Chicago to celebrate my 10th Anniversary as Pastor of the Mars Hill Baptist Church of Chicago. The event was fun, festive, and classy! I love Mars Hill and consider it a privilege to serve as her pastor.
Previously, pastors would celebrate their pastoral anniversary by having a banquet at a hotel or banquet hall. This year we decided to change the game and hold my 10th Anniversary aboard The Spirit of Chicago. We had an AWESOME time! I want to thank Mary Taylor, our staff, and our members for making this a memorable occasion.
Much like the National Baseball Hall of Fame for Major League baseball players, each participant, upon induction, receives the coveted American Youth Baseball Hall of Fame ring and officially becomes one of the Cooperstown Dreams Park Little Majors. The Kodak photo of each player with his teammates is affixed to the Commemorative Induction Plaque for future enshrinement on the walls of the American Youth Baseball Hall of Fame. Our family will cherish this moment for the rest of our lives!
(Congratulations to Indians for finishing 10th out of 104 teams)
While away, I had a chance to reflect on life in general and the Lord revealed several foundational shattering truths that I plan to share in subsequent blog posts. These truths challenged me to think about life in a different way and challenged long held beliefs that have become TRADITIONS.
