This actually speaks more to me and makes me feel comfortable with you as our church's leader. A great speaker is always nice and fun (which you are!) but the attempt for sincerity and depth of friendships are the real measures (to me) of a person. Shows true compassion (and allows you to accept it from others which can only help you move forward in your personal and ministerial life). Best wishes!! Good stuff Pastor!

Each time I read your bolg, I either laugh at the stories, or come to know you in a "regular guy" way. I know that sounds wierd, but given your calling and the immense respect I have for you, I have always kept a business distance so I didn't clutter up your life and ministry work. I miss you and your family but realize that God has a higher purpose and that you are faithfully walking His plan. I do pray for your ministry and all the awesome blessings that are happening at Timberlake.<br/> <br/>I look forward to seeing everyone the next time you are in town.<br/> <br/>Kelli Mahaffey<br/>EastLake Church<br/>(619) 813-5433<br/>kelli@eastlakechurch.com Pastor Ben,
