Sadness and disappointment fill my head, as my heart breaks at the reality of it all. Not understanding adds a confusion I’ve never had before and in the process anger rears it’s ugly head. But I will still trust….I will still believe…I will still have faith…and I will lead with conviction, love, grace, hope, passion, balance, boundaries, boldness, and humility. For the bride of Christ may weep and the dress may be a bit soiled…she is still beautiful and radiant even amidst the pain and brokenness.

Is there a context behind this? It sounds rather confusing, or misleading to one who lives in a far off land.

Thank you Christopher for being honest in your feelings. I will be praying for all who will be leading, that God will make the load bearable and Joy will come in the morning. I also want you to know that I too have a blog- old ladies can blog too! http://matulich7135.spaces.live.com/
You are loved :>

Hi Christopher,
I’m a member of Revolution and when I heard… I just felt so relieved to know you are here. I’ll be praying for your leadership to continue on as great as it has been. My favorite verse Proverbs 3:5 has been coming to mind a lot.

Hi Christopher,
Just wanted to let you know that we are praying for you guys. God definitely brought you to Revolution for a purpose and it is good to know you are there to express Christ’s love, comfort, and healing power. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

Hi Christopher,
While this is a shocking and almost unreal time, my husband and I are praying this through and through. You are an awesome leader in our church!!

Like Jason, I am “in a far off land” and now I’m worried about you. What’s going on, my friend?
