The Land of Arnold

Our friends Dan and Andi Hanna are abroad teaching in Austria. We miss them a lot. We lived with them for about a year while we were in Columbus. It was cool to go beyond just being in a small group together, or just hanging out twice a month. Instead living with each other is such a greater commitement. You can call each other "Brother" and "Sister" and it has more weight. Of course I couldn't live with just anyone and not everyone has the personality that would be easy to live with. But it could be really good to actually live that way with other people for a while. I think I learned more in two years of traveling with ministry teams at Cedarville than at any other time in my life. You have to learn to become a servant. You have to learn to get past those whom you have less in common with. It's interesting that with all the talk of community now a days, that we don't have more people making actually moves and sacrifices to be around their brother's and sisters. I wouldn't be suprised if we see more of that happening in the future though.

Here's a pic of us with Dan and Andi, and no, I don't wear that shirt every day.
