Major Changes Are Here!
It's been a long, hard year but God is certainly good. Through the wilderness and out on the other side, God's hand has been holding onto me. What am I talking about? Well, December 3 will be my first Sunday as the new pastor of Memorial Baptist Church in Hixson (Chattanooga), TN.
For those of you who follow the blog, you know I was down there a couple of weeks ago, though I gave no specifics at the time. My time there was great and God confirmed to me then that this was the place He had been preparing me for the whole time. I believe the same can be said of the church. The vote was held this past Sunday and I was humbled and encouraged that the results were unanimously in favor of my coming.
MBC is not a perfect church as they have their troubles. I, as I'm sure you know, am not perfect either. In spite of these facts, I really believe this was a marriage made in heaven...I believe God did it.
As I alluded to in my previous post, I don't know what the future holds. Obviously, my first priority will continue to be my family, followed by my new family of MBC, but I hope to be able to continue blogging regularly...I just don't know if E.R. will change emphasis and structure. I guess we'll find out.
This promises to be a very busy month as we make our plans for the move. We're praying that God will bring us a buyer for our house soon (so if you're in Louisville and looking for a house, call me) and lead us to the house He has prepared for us in TN as well so my whole family can go down there together. It's all in His hands...right where I want it to be!

Congratulations, David. Welcome to Tennessee!
David,
I am thrilled that you are going to be the Pastor of MBC. You are so right about this being a marriage made in heaven because only God could have worked things out the way He has and I know that the people at that church are blessed to have you and your family as a part of their family. Ginny and I will be in prayer for you in regards to the houses, your move,your ministry and especially the new baby. God bless all of you. Ginny and I hope to be sitting in a pew at MBC someday soon!

Congratulsations, David. May the Lord bless you and your family richly as you embark on this new phase of ministry. Soli Deo Gloria!
