- Setting up and executing a Judgment House Outreach. We saw 680 people walk through with 90 first time decisions for Jesus and 82 rededications.
- PhD work was front-loaded this semester.....BOTH CLASSES!
- Ministry, need I say more!
- Most importantly I got married on November 9th to the beautiful and perfect compliment for me, the former Kim Ernsberger!
Here is a list of some aspects of my WEDDING that are SPECIAL to ME!
1. My family got to play a LARGE role in my wedding. As they say: "blood is thicker than water." I was honored that my family was standing on stage with me and supporting me on my BIG DAY!
- Father (Officiant) Best Men - Brothers Bridesmaid - Sister
2. Members of First Christian Church and dear friends graciously provided the evening meal. Not only did they provide the meal, it was excellent!
3. I had a number of close friends from high-school and college make the long trek from Pennsylvania to support me. Shout out to Brian Orme and Logan Conley who travelled the farthest, all the way from Philadelphia, PA.
4. My two other groomsmen are special to me. First, there was Jared Yordy a friend and ministry partner who I've grown up with since the 3rd grade. Second, there was Jacob Niblick who is my adopted son. Jacob is a reminder to me every day of why I am in full-time ministry.
5. I have interactive and fun family and friends. I do not think I have ever seen a dance floor as packed than at my wedding! There were BODIES!
6. The eight ushers in the wedding are all men who I've had the opportunity to personally disciple. They are all DEAR brothers in the Lord and many are in or are pursuing full-time ministry!
7. I had people from all walks of life at my wedding. Friends from elementary school, high-school, college, and post-college. Friends from PA, OH, Kendallville and Goshen. I thank God for those whom He has placed in my life!
8. I had the opportunity and blessing to join the Ernsberger family. They have been good to accept me which isn't easy you know ;)
9. I got to zip-line in for my grand entrance! Yep, you read that right. (Please like my video on YouTube so it goes viral ;)
10. Watching, MY bride walk down the aisle was priceless. I was speechless and moved to tears. I will NEVER forget that moment!
Kim and I had a wonderful honeymoon spending time in different parts of Michigan. We are back in town and are enjoying being together, establishing a home, and ministering in the Goshen area!
Jon Corbin and Rick Yoder used the party favors as bow ties - Impressive!
