The Absurd

We just got back from Family Camp, and heard awesome messages from evangelist Eddie Phillips!  In one service he talked about the Kingdom of the Absurd, and how God does things that don't always make sense to humans.  Absurd is defined as irrational, preposterous, ridiculous.  Sometimes I think that people feel we are absurd...selling our home, moving to a new place to help start a new church.  Usually the first question we hear from Christian and non-Christian alike is, "Is your husband a pastor?"  Then the next question usually has something to do with the actual location of the church.  It goes against the norm to be a church without a place to worship, but God has led us.  There is no doubt about that!  God has led Matt and Brooke Robinson to Fishers, IN to start Second Chance Church.  And God has led at least 8 families at last count to leave everything and join Matt & Brooke to show Jesus to Hamilton County!  Matthew 4:19 and 20 says:

19 "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will send you out to fish for people."20 At once they left their nets and followed him.

They followed Jesus...left their nets and followed!  We have grown spiritually through this experience, but it really isn't tough to follow Jesus.  Just obey!  I tell our kids all the time that they have 1 thing to do and that's OBEY!!  It's really the same with Jesus!  All we have to do is OBEY!!  Do what He says!  And He's told the Hood's to go to Fishers, IN to be a part of a new church called Second Chance Church!  If you are interested in more information about SCC, click here.  We appreciate your prayers!!
