Eight Years at Anchor

Today was Anchor's 8th anniversary. Nothing special about 8. But we recognized the day. Seems so long ago, that morning when we wondered if anybody would show up. Well over 100 people came. Closer to 150. It was an exciting, even giddy, day. A real adrenaline rush.

Lots of people have come through our doors. Lots of ministry has occurred. But our attendance hasn't changed much. That concerns me to an extent. And yet, I know that many lives have been touched, whether or not that translates into the numerical growth which evangelical Christianity worships. I, personally, have done more ministry this year than I did in nine years at my previous booming church.

So, praise the Lord for Anchor--what it has meant to me personally, and what it has meant to the scores of people who, in some way, Christ has touched through our hands.
