Although I may disappoint some that thought my trip to KC involved some exciting new announcement, (including those that thought I was going to buy a ring, you know who you are), I am sorry to disappoint. What this very special trip did involve was wonderful fellowship with old friends, some of which I had not seen for many years.

I had the privilege of traveling to KC with good friend Nathan Bollinger to visit the Greer family. Sean and Dan Greer are some of my dearest friends in the world, and it is wonderful to see how the Lord continues to shape their lives for His glory. They are both young men that are committed to honoring the Lord in their lives and it is exciting to see how they have grown in Christ each time that we are able to visit together. Yesterday, I enjoyed the Greer’s fellowship, hospitality, and reminisced over childhood stories. This trip was particularly special because I had not seen Sean for over four and a half years, and Dan only once in that time – the longest stint that we had gone without seeing each other.

I have been friends with the entire Greer family since I was just four years of age and through the years we have remained close friends. This trip was a wonderful reunion and a clear reminder of the importance of friendships that last a life time. I was encouraged and excited to see how both Sean and Dan have grown as men and how the Lord continues to providentially direct their steps.

Praise be to God for friendships, reunions, and life-long relationships that are so vital to covenant community!
