This is very exciting and bittersweet at the same time. We really love the children at our church and really all of the people. We will miss serving on staff, but look forward to being able to "come to church" again!
We are not going to move or anything like that. Thankfully, the new job is in Nashville. I am excited about getting to drive downtown everyday. I love downtown Nashvegas! I will also be traveling some to lead conferences for LifeWay. That will be great experience as well.
That's great, Jeff! Congratulations!
