Eyes Wide Open

When God moved Nikki and I down to Spartanburg, SC two years ago we never thought that THIS was where we would end up. Having grown up in Michigan and spending most of my life in the Great Lakes area, the south was about as foreign to us as any country overseas. Sweet tea? Never heard of it. College football? I didn't realize there was more than Michigan vs. Ohio State. Macaroni and Cheese? Who knew that down here it is considered a vegetable!

With beautiful sunshine and great weather most of the year (and no snow) we quickly fell in love with our new city and state.

A large part of why we fell in love with this area had to do with finding Hub City Church. While most would consider it just another church plant, what we found was a family of believers working hard to hear God and to do what He says. We've met some of the most amazing people who come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. Best of all they've accepted these Yankees into their homes and hearts and we couldn't imagine living anywhere else.

I'd like to say that this blog will be about deep theological topics (and that will happen), but it will also be about life in general. Be prepared for copious amounts of God, sports, and highlights of what is happening in this area. Just like us I think you'll be amazed at what is happening here and how God is working.
