It was 17 years until my father-in-law got his treasured old Ford coupe on the road. At times, he wondered, would this restoration project ever be done? (And, I've found myself asking the same question about my own soul's restoring.) Countless hours of sparks flying from the grinding wheel as it took away what was no longer needed, and what could actually cause more harm... Because, like a cancer that spreads to destroy a body's cells, and like a bitterness that grows to harden a heart... rust could eat away at the steel on his old coupe, if not TENDERLY, YET AGRESSIVELY CARED FOR. I hope that as you listen in to this story, that you will discover hope that YOU are not too far gone (and neither is he or she). And when you feel like restoration might never end, I hope that you take heart... because this soul-restoring is a season, and one thing I am learning is that God is a patient restorer.

Better yet, join me at the Restorable Retreat on Feb. 26- 28.  Registration closes February 5th.  This is a small and intimate retreat, so space is very limited.
