It is always so hard to understand when you don't get to be in all the
meetings. I feel this way even at our church, and a lot of those meetings
are open. I just don't have time to go to them!

Thanks! It was good to listen to. He definitely paints a different picture
that the article painted.

It seems the older I get the more I see that there you're right, "no one
is immune." There is no man, no place that is going to get it right every
time. Living in a broken world is hard. Recently, I have been thinking
about Jesus as the perfect Judge/Ruler and how wonderful that is going to
be. Can you imagine being able to have perfect confidence in the One in
charge? Looking forward to that Day/Time more and more and trying to figure
out how to keep striving forward in my faith now despite my failings and
those of believers around me.

Speaking of Matt Chandler, did you see the article in the New York Times
about the poorly handled child sexual abuse case in their church. Was
saddened that, once again, churches keep getting it wrong. No one is immune.

Kristi, you would love how Matt Chandler talks about the amazing single
women in his church (and his pride in his amazingly smart wife). He urges
them to keep striving to do what God would have them to do and never step
back and settle for a guy that is not man enough/brave enough/godly enough
to want them to stretch to their full potential in Christ. It's pretty cool.

Love this!!
If there is one thing that has frustrated me the most in my years of
singleness, that is being told "It's probably because you're too
intimidating." Give me a break. Am I supposed to NOT love and serve God
with all my heart? Am I supposed to be a wimp and just sit around and wait
for someone to come along?? I would totally have wasted the last 20 years
of my life if I had done that!
I'm reading this new book
<https://www.amazon.com/Devotedly-Personal-Letters-Elisabeth-Elliot-ebook/dp/B07MXV7T3X/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2OAPI5O9OKH2K&keywords=devotedly+valerie+shepard&qid=1564210904&s=gateway&sprefix=devotedly%2Caps%2C1497&sr=8-2>
by Elisabeth Elliot's daughter Valerie, and it's interesting that as
Elisabeth and Jim got closer to engagement, he struggled with feelings of
inferiority. He didn't feel like he deserved her. God used that to reveal
areas of pride in his heart. But that wasn't what kept him from popping the
question; it was his commitment to do jungle ministry as a single man
before getting married.
