FIRST: Person In Vegas

A little over a year ago I was asked to do a blog. I said yes, but thought, “Why am I doing this? It will be a waste of time, no one will read it…” I was also asked to write a book, and I said yes, but thought, “Why am I doing this? It will be a waste of time, no one will read it.”

Well, the blog and the book have become more popular than I would have imagined, but even if they hadn’t, I think maybe the main reason God led me to do them was David and Jennifer Tobey.

The Tobeys are from Austin, Texas and somehow became readers of my blog and book. When they learned on my blog that we were moving to Vegas to start a new church on the Strip, they felt like God was telling them to go and be a part of it. Now this was obviously crazy, they’d have to leave their jobs, home, family, and move to start a church with people they don’t know and where they’d have to raise their two boys in Vegas. Crazy. But they know God calls His followers to do crazy things. So not only did they say yes, but they were actually the first people to move to Vegas!

Thanks David and Jennifer, for being crazy.
