My teeth are clinched with determination…

I just got a note from my real estate agent and for the second time since we’ve had our house on the market… the deal has fallen through. How do I feel? This sucks, BUT… My teeth are clinched and I’ve never been more determined to plant this church. We ARE going to plant this…

I just got a note from my real estate agent and for the second time since we’ve had our house on the market… the deal has fallen through.

How do I feel? This sucks, BUT…

My teeth are clinched and I’ve never been more determined to plant this church.

We ARE going to plant this church even if I have to work EIGHT jobs to make this thing happen.

We will not be deterred…

We will not be sidelined…

We will NOT be distracted from the clear calling of God on our lives to plant Walls Down Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The resolve in my heart is stronger than ever!

    We are working on selling our house to put ourselves in a better financial situation for the church plant!

    It took two years for us to sell our house after we pursued our calling into fulltime ministry. I don’t think this has anything to do with your calling Paul. You know in your heart what God has called you to. You are out of the boat now don’t ever let the waves distract you or cause you to take your eyes off Jesus. I also don’t think you have to work harder I think you have to trust bigger.
    Love You Man.

    Must be something amazing is happening if the enemy id trying (oh yeah I said trying) to discourage.
    I know that when God is going to rock the town
    the enemy shakes a bit.
    It is not your house and it is not your battle. Continue to focus on building. How can we help?
    Our prayers are always with your family.

    Remember ‘In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day’….

    “No risk equals no reward…No problem equals no miracle.”

    “Obedience is a willingness to do whatever, whenever, wherever God calls us.”

    “Those who hear not the music think the dancer is mad.”

    Keep dancin’…

    tough time to sell a home – the subprime mess and weak dollar are impacting the economy – the DOW is starting to lside because of it –

    dont worry though – God will provide exactly what you need

    “sucks”, having at times, a sexual connotation seems inappropriate. I urge you to reconsider it’s use.

    Paul keep trying. I decided to rent mine and I can tell you it’s been a blessing so far, so remember selling might be part of your plan but not part of His plan for you 😉
