Incredible!

I love seeing life change.....last night we baptized 24 people in a "chilly" pool but it was so awesome to see 100+ people gathered around the pool deck at the Starnes' to cheer them on!! Our team puts in a ton of hours into making NStar happen and then we watch God do something that is bigger than us (salvation & eternal life) it is all worthwhile!! Then we left baptism and had 35-40 people who are new to NorthStar attend our "Newcomers" event that is a great get-together so they can learn more about the church!!

My challenge to any church-planter who is just coming out of the ground and is not seeing what they thought they would see.....stick with the plan that God called you to do!! Learn all you can and learn from as many people as you can, but find something that you are great at and stick with it! After 10 years of ministry at NStar - I feel like we are really just getting started!!
