Spring Break Road Trip

The best place to spend a college spring break is on a road trip! These breaks give you extra time to invest in relationships away from distractions and the busyness of life. Also, as you spend hours together in a car you are forced to talk, even more than you want to. You can't just go do some activity to entertain yourself because you are trapped in the car together.
Once again I spent my spring break on the road with a few guys. I took two guys I'm discipling, Zac and Mike, and Roy who just came to Christ this fall. We traveled to Montgomery, Alabama to visit Byron Johnson; the speaker for our Winter Retreat. Byron works with four campuses in the Montgomery area. My prayer was:
-to encourage and challenge the guys by giving them exposure to other men who are laboring on other campuses,
-to further broaden their vision for their own lives as they see how God is using other ordinary men to expand His Kingdom,
-and to share my life with them informally for a more extended time period.
As we returned home, I was again thankful for the privilege I have to help shape these men's lives. The guys had a great time and returned home wanting to know God more. They have recently begun a 8:00 AM prayer time for other students to gather and ask God to move on our campus and draw people to Himself.
