Surprise!

On Friday night, we threw a surprise party for Scott Weatherford. Scott was the founding pastor of Parkway Church. He invested 15 years in launching and leading the church that I now pastor. He also made a significant investment in me when I served here before going to DC. I can't tell you how many times I heard the phrase, "Boy...come over here, I want to teach you something." When I came to Parkway in '94, I was a some-what clueless 22 year old. I needed all of the help that I could get.

Yesterday, Scott posted a blog about the suprise party, Parkway Church and me. His words of encouragment couldn't mean more to me.
