Sahun, indeed a courageous post. Again, I encourage you to stay on course with your dream and the vision that God has planted inside you and your wife. As a minister who is in the process of forming a church, I take your pointers as guides for the future. I have a small Bible study group and for the most part I am waiting patiently on the Lord to lead me into my divine destiny. A few weeks and months ago, I was anxious to launch out further and God kep restraining me and closing doors. Now I understand why: work and study would make it impossible to dedicate all the time needed to build a community. So I am taking it at God's pace and I can see Him at work, I encourage you to press on and stay focused. Again, thanks for the honest and down-to-earth post. Bro. Sahun,

I have made a gazillion mistakes. We recently launched here in Central Florida and it is by far one of the hardest things I have ever done -- greatest personal and family sacrifice ever -- but I wouldn't trade it for anything else. Thanks for your honesty! Shaun, thanks for the encouragement. I have made a gazillion mistakes. We recently launched here in Central Florida and it is by far one of the hardest things I have ever done — greatest personal and family sacrifice ever — but I wouldn't trade it for anything else.
