New Endeavour

Last night I was hired as Youth Director at my Church! I was hired to fill the position recently vacated by my friend -and fellow Reformed Mafia cohort- Josh Hitchcock.

Though I have been actively involved in ministry for the past 8 years (more or less), this is my first time actually being on staff at a church. I am very excited about this opportunity and look forward to working with the youth group and our pastor.

Please pray that God would do a mighty work in the youth of our church and in the community in which we live and serve. I would love nothing more than to see God pour out a great revival starting with the young people of this community.

I think it's also interesting that this happened only 2 days shy of the one year anniversary of my resignation from the Church of God of Prophecy. One year ago, I would have never guessed I would be in this position now.


Soli Deo Gloria!

Rhett, I know God will use you in a mighty way. I don't know if I ever told you this, but I suggested your name prior to leaving. I know that you have a passion to see lost souls saved and that you have a burning desire to teach people the word of God as they seek to conform to the character of Christ. I pray for you daily and will continue to pray for you and your family as you enter this new ministry. I couldn't have imagined a better person to come in behind me. If I am ever visiting during the week, I would love to have the opportunity to speak to them once again. (Although it probably be a new group). Anyway, feel free to call about anything in regards to the ministry. As you know, you have a great Pastor and Music Minister to help you along. Be Blessed my brother! Soli Deo Gloria!
