Funerals

Today we had the funeral for Bob Martin at the church. It was cool to hear all the awesome things that his wife and kids had to say about him as they reflected upon their time together.

That is one of the things that I appreciate about funerals. It causes you to stop and reflect upon your own life. I caught myself listening to the things that they were saying about their dad and thinking, I want to make sure that I keep my life balanced between my work and my family. I always want my wife and kids to know that they are the most important things in my life! Ministry is very important to me, however, I spend a lot more time being a dad and a husband than I do being a pastor.
