Best Times "In Route"

Some of us have been carpooling lately because of the gas shortage. However, every once in awhile it leaves you stranded. Jeanne had to meet up with her hubby and had no way to get there because she had rode in with Bethany. I volunteered to drive her. Since we both run at about Mach 2, sometimes our greatest times are "in route." Which is kind of funny given that Rey had said that a few weeks ago in middle school ministry ... that his best times and talks were picking up and dropping off kids. Not many people talk about "in route" ministry, probably because it doesn't sound very glamorous and there are no lights, bells and whistles involved. But often times, it is the very place where life change occurs.

Today we were talking about a recent message we had both heard and I got bold enough to say "I don't have buy in with all of that." Then we had a great discussion regarding it. I love having a boss safe enough to share heart, feelings and thoughts with. 98% of the time we totally agree and are so like-minded it's often scary, then there is that 2% where we are at totally different ends of the spectrum. The fact that we can respectfully share, often passionately, our different views and not feel threatened in any way is cool. It definitley makes the journey fun for sure.

Master's, the Cadre and NYLC 09 are in full swing now. Time is so scarce, but I love it. In all of my life, I've never met anyone like Jeanne when it comes to multiplication. She has raised up more leaders and placed them in full-time ministry (equally in the business world as well) ... and through mentoring, coaching and by sometimes just being a "mom" helped keep them there. They truly dot the globe.
