I have been around for a few years. Though I don't often make posts, believe it or not, not two days go by without me having stopped by the board to see what is going on. Though I have many times been the conservative gadfly on the board, I have found some friends in the crowd, sometimes in unlikely places. Jon Estes has already mentioned coming to North Dakota for a missions trip (good times), but not before his own church hosted me for a F.A.I.T.H. training conference. I remember the green chili (good times).
As I am transitioning into a new phase of life I am still finding unlikely friends. As I get ready to finish a master's degree in history, I have found a friend, advisor, and mentor in our very own Dr. Gourley. I have found his advice to be accurate and timely and his friendship to be warming and engaging. Stranger alliances have been formed.
I also remember crossing paths with David Flick at one of the SBC annual meetings. I confess I forget which one, but I also forget what I wore to work today.
Though I have found many things said on the board to be frustrating as all get out, when I had an interest in the topic, I have found a lot of good times connected to this board too. Good memories.
