Dinner with Champions

I work with a great bunch of people!! They love God and they love each other! In April's Team Meeting we celebrated the time we had with a team member that was leaving us, Jason Wilson. Now Jason is a very cool cat! I mean that literally. I have never seen him lose his cool. He just handles whatever come his way. Jason felt he needed to come off of the team to be there for his family and you can not fault him for that. That is a God-honoring thing to do, but we will miss him. One of Jason's favorite foods was Captain Crunch cereal. So for the evening we had a cereal bar to honor him.

This was a very good evening. We took care of some business and then viewed the video teaching of Erwin McManus from the Willow Leadership Conference of 2003. He taught on the "Barbarian Way". I have viewed this teaching many times over and it still impacts each time I see it. After the video, we had a time of some good discussion on what would are lives look like if we lived as barbarian Christians? What would we have to change? , what could we keep doing,? and what would we need to stop doing?

As the old Wheaties commercial used to say " Breakfast of Champions", well I can say that I had dinner with some true champions.
