On Tuesday Dec. 18th Ginger and I will be married 8 years. As I look back on those 8 years I praise the Lord for His provision. He has provided me a wonderful wife and teammate. I am so excited about working with her in ministry in England like we did in Fairhope and Decatur. I have had the priviledge of watching her grow in her relationship with Christ and enjoy seeing her minister in a variety of ways to me and those in the church. When we first met she was not inclined to desire a life of service in another country. God has truly worked in her heart and it is exciting to see her compassion for the people of England continue to grow. As we begin the support raising season of our ministry and life (which will probably continue until we see Jesus) it is encouraging to have Ginger there with me. As we embark on the rest of our lives together I am persuaded that they will be just as satisfying because our focus is on the Lord and not our on agendas in this relationship. May I be the leader that Ginger needs, one who points her to Christ continually. He will be her strength and portion forever. I thank the Lord for the women he has given for me to spend my life with.

Sup brother....faithless...yeah that's about right! It's good to see how excited you guys are getting. I know it's a long and hard process. But that's exactly what it's about..keeping the faith. Like that's an easy thing to do! So be humble in the fact that God has chosen the both of you to do his work in a harsh environment. We are all given the task of sharing His word, but it's the special ones that are taken out of their comfort zone and share the Gospel....prayers your way....
Oh, and Happy Anniversary...if she hasn't figured out how crazy you are by now...your good...
What a great post! You are really a sweet husband for praying for yourself on Ginger's behalf. I don't want to think too much about you guys leaving but as always you have our support and prayer. Happy Anniversary!
