no perfect people allowed

One of our favorite pastors and authors, John Burke, is going to be at Vault this October. He pastors Gateway Church in Austin, Tx and wrote the book "No Perfect People Allowed". Which is a book that spoke to Wendy and I when we first started getting into leadership. It kind of emphasized the idea that we don’t need to get cleaned up to have a relationship with God, we need a relationship with God to get cleaned up. This has been one of the founding principles of any group, organization or team that we have started. Allowing those who have a curiosity about God, but are very far from him, to come in and check it out without having to hide who they are.

If you have not read "No Perfect People Allowed" then you need to, it’s a great book and is required reading to join the Operation Miami team.

I don’t know how we’re going to do it, but, I would love to be able to go to Vault again this year. With the move to Miami quickly approaching, our options are slimming. Perhaps my Dad will still be in Phoenix in October and we can drop the 5 kids off for a couple of days? Hmmm...
