Lately, I've been wrestling with how best I can chronical my faith journey for those who still scratch their heads in dismay that the former president of the Baptist Student Union at Shorter College went Roman. Catholic, as in. In fact, yesterday was my 12th anniversary of that decision. Meanwhile, Steve Peifer is briefly touring the U.S. sharing his story of "A Dream So Big" that has just been released by Zondervan. How we come to our faith matters, so I'm going to keep working on a crumb trail that might lead people to the church of Steve's childhood. Meanwhile, he's going to keep sharing about a God
so big that He can send three sons to change this world: Jesus, to redeem it, a tiny baby named Stephen to stretch open Steve's heart and soul, and a grown son named Steve whose heart for young Kenyans--concern for their nutrition, their education, and their future via the capacity to acquire marketable computer skills is changing their world. His urgent love compelled him to create and sustain ways to feed school kids
in mind, body, and spirit. He's done an incredible job of that, in the company of three great sons, in the loving memory of another son, and with his beautiful bride and daughter. Reminding me that finding God really matters, but living a life where people old and young see the Father in your eyes and at work through your loving arms----that's what it is all about.
