Georgetown Inroads

God continues to give us amazing favor and inroads into the Georgetown community as we prepare to launch our Georgetown location on November 4.

On Tuesday night I spoke to a group of men in Georgetown. We met at Evermay--a four acre estate in Georgetown. Amazing place with an amazing history! And the view of the city from Evermay is unparalled.

Most of the guys at the Bible study are very influential and very successful in their respective fields. Honestly? I was a little nervous. It's that instinctive Jeremiah reflex: I can't speak for you. I'm too young. But I've learned that the situations where you feel the least qualified are the very situations where God can do the most because you realize how much you need His help! And here's the deal. I found the guys to be totally unpretentious and there is something about Jesus that is so equalizing. He is the Great Equalizer! Our credentials go away and we're just a bunch of guys who need to know God and serve God better!

All of that to say this. I really want our Georgetown launch to be as organic as possible. And I think the way you make it organic is by praying and serving and building relationships one person at a time.

I really want us to become part of the fabric of Georgetown. That's one reason I'm praying for a coffeehouse on M Street or Wisconsin Avenue.
