The Writing Reverend takes post at Exceeding Joy!

For a while now I have been in direct contact with Senior Pastor Conrad Banks at Exceeding Joy. For months we have flirted with the idea that we would jion forces and I would be his right hand man when it came to getting things done administratively. I have been in and out of churches, but for some particular reason my wife and I found ourselves in his church again on a last minute decision. Before the service was overwith there was another pastor there that I have only ever saw once before in my life. She stood up in front of the congregation and voiced to my wife and I that the Lord spoke to her and said that I need to walk with him and everything that is burdening in my family is not delayed, but is in process. It may seem delayed to us, but it is not in God's way of doing. And wouldn't you know it? My wife and I were talking about why some breakthroughs were not happening the way that we thought they would at this point and time in our lives.

During the Thanksgiving Day dinner for Real Men talk we had the opportunity to fellowship and eat with a few families. During that time I felt compelled in my heart to let Pastor Banks know that the Williams family is now on board 100%. We are not sure where this will take us, but we are very fortunate to be in a position where so much opportunity is available. It may not be the biggest congregation, but we are sure that it has the potential to be the most dynamic in terms of blessing others!

This has really been a great joy here in Columbus, Ohio and I pray to see a few more bodies show up within the next coming years. My wife and I will meet with the Pastor and his wife this week on some of the possibilities that are available. I want to work, but not so much that we have no opportunity to minister to our children and finding ourselves in the church more than spending time with our children. I believe that this will be another setup for us to hit 2010 with a bang! The platform is laid out and now it's showtime! I will keep you all informed on websites and bloggers that are to come. Hope to see you all there next Sunday at 3p.m. on 3424 Hamilton Road, Columbus, Oh
