Three summers ago I walked into the doors of Prairie Lakes Church. Probably, like many, I wasn’t sure what I was getting into, but there were four words that changed my perspective about “church” forever. In front of a packed service I heard, “Here’s what we know…” With authenticity and transparency the leadership invited us personally to keep pointing people to God. It wasn’t the pastor’s job to reach the Cedar Valley, it was OURS! Today, that challenge is still before us. In an ever increasingly complex, confusing and messy world we must find simple ways to be recklessly invitational, to keep pointing people to God. This blog is about that journey together. My hope is to share personal moments as the Waterloo Campus Pastor as well as invite you to share in the gate-crashing, Kingdom expansion plan God has for the Cedar Valley and Iowa!
